About this property

Log Cabin Waterfront getaway at Buckeye Lake featured in the 2019 Tour of Homes

"My father would align the rising sun with the dock for a perfect day." Our newly remodeled cabin provides an all knotty pine, open airy floor plan with lots of windows, two spacious bedrooms with queen size beds and a overhead bunk, bathroom with stand up shower, large open living room with eat in area, and kitchen with full size appliances, and a washer and dryer. A large porch faces the lakefront with a lovely lakeside yard. Our cabin is a charming, cozy, and immaculate lakefront get away that will accommodate up to a five person family or two adult couples. Dogs are welcome.

Conveniently located in the Millersport area- we are close to everything!! Take a short walk down the street to the Weldon's home made ice cream shop for a delicious treat. There are local restaurants in Millersport, a short drive or walk away, or stay home and grill your own meal with a view of the lake.

The perfect vacation spot for the entire family. There is a shallow area for the little ones to play and deeper water for swimming and floating. Buckeye Lake also has great fishing, either by boat or off the private deck. We recommend that you check local fishing license requirements prior to your visit. If you have your own boat you can explore the lake, canals, and water accessible restaurants. Buckeye Lake has no horsepower restrictions. No boat, no problem... you can set up a tour with a local boat tour company and explore the lake. The front yard offers a great, unobstructed view of the lake where you can enjoy coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening, or sit a relax outside with your favorite book with peaceful sounds of nature.

This log cabin was built on old Summerland Beach in 1946 from logs purchased in Michigan and brought to Buckeye Lake. It is located in front of the old hotel, where the paddle boat would bring passengers from Buckeye Lake Amusement Park. It's strong history and recent updates were a few of the many reason this home was featured in the 2019, 34th annual Buckeye Lake Tour of Homes.

About the host

Hosted by Larry and Susie Fenner

Host profile image
In 1945 my father, his brother and two uncles returned WWII, and all had received the Purple Heart. As my mother and father were driving around the Buckeye Lake my mother found the lot was for sale . At this time it was still being used as the beach for the hotel located behind the cabin. She convinced my grandfather to purchase the land and he purchased the cabin in the state of Michigan and it was constructed on the beach here at Buckeye Lake . This was used as a summer cabin and a place where all the families would gather. This was my favorite place to come to and play, stay all night and wait for that 'rising sun' so I could get out there and fish and go boating.

Why they chose this property

To my parents this location had the very best view of the lake and the Buckeye Lake paddle wheel boat would unload the passengers from the Buckeye Lake Amusement Park to the hotel behind the cabin. To protect our cabin, this is a smoke free home.

What makes this property unique

Location. A short distance from Interstate 70. Close to the State Park for the use of the boat ramps. It is the only private drive on this end of the lake, so there is no traffic for noise or safety. The fishing out front is great and the Bald Eagles love to fish out in front of the cabin. This bay is always the calmest water on the lake. Location Location Location.
