Escape to The Buckeye Cottage – Your Summer Retreat

Looking ahead to warmer days at Buckeye Lake?

Buckeye Lake offers over 3,000 acres of water for kayaking, jet skiing, tubing, and more.

The best part? Your stay includes a six-seater golf cart—ideal for exploring the lake, visiting nearby attractions, and taking in the views.

Rusty and I are conveniently located just 35 minutes away from our cottage and are readily available to assist you whenever needed.

Buckeye Lake comes alive in the warmer months, offering endless fun on the water! Rentals are available nearby, or bring your own gear and head to the new Thorn Township Canoe/Kayak Launch Park to dive in as soon as the weather warms up.

Our charming retreat, The Buckeye Cottage, is just moments from Crystal Beach, Buckeye Lake Brewery (home of the Shovelhead® IPA), and the North Shore Launch Ramp. Whether you want to explore by water, enjoy a peaceful pontoon ride, or take a scenic stroll along the 4.1-mile shoreline path, the options are endless. For a laid-back day, you can also fish year-round or explore nearby birdwatching spots.

The best part? When you book The Buckeye Cottage, you’ll have access to a six-seater golf cart—perfect for cruising around, exploring the area, or taking in the beautiful views. When you're ready to unwind, there are plenty of great spots to enjoy a meal, sip wine, or grab a sweet treat.

Within a 15-minute drive, you’ll also find Legend Valley, a legendary 230-acre live music venue hosting concerts and festivals since the '70s.

While the surrounding neighborhood includes a mix of property conditions, we want to assure you that our home is well cared for and thoughtfully maintained. A full privacy fence offers separation and helps create a comfortable, peaceful space for your stay.
