It’s great for swimming, fishing off the dock (stocked with trout) and they offer free day use at their picnic sights & have a beautiful hiking trail around the lake. I’ve included the link here for more info & directions. https://rimbeyfishandgame.com/open-creek-campground. ~ Twin Lakes is 30 minutes away east on Highway 13 and is a great swimming lake! :) ~ Ponderosa City is 20 minutes away west on Highway 13 and offers an Old western town and shop with western apparel, gifts, and kids' items.

They recently opened a restaurant and the food is all homemade and delicious! They also make fresh pizzas and subs for take out. They have great bakery options as well!

Michelle & her group we lovely guests! Very friendly & very clean! They left our cabin in such great shape & even stripped the beds! We’d be happy to have them again!
Cabin was great and the hosts were outstanding, we were disappointed with the lake as we discovered it was more of a fishing lake, than a swimming lake. However, I would stay here again, we all had a fabulous time.

This is a well-maintained, well-stocked cabin, both inside and out. There was good fishing on the lake, and our hosts provided us with a number of great ideas for the days when we weren't fishing. Our hosts went above and beyond to ensure that this was a memorable vacation for each member of our family.

About the host
Hosted by Jack & Bev Oosterveld
We're originally from Edmonton, but now make Buck Lake our home. It's a great community with good people. We've enjoyed offering our cabin to people over the summer months & we've met so many wonderful guests when they've contacted us for help or to answer questions.
Why they chose this property
We bought this cabin 17 years ago as we had friends who live here & it gave us a place to get away from the city. We have great neighbors here and great amenities. We have a covered patio with a BBQ and a fire pit in the backyard for those nice starry nights. We are only 2 km from a well-stocked grocery store & a lovely café that has great food and specialty coffee and tea. There's also a hardware store that has almost everything, including fishing supplies. We enjoy the Grey Owl Meadery about 10 minutes away that offers wine tasting and makes a variety of great charcuterie boards and flat bread pizza. Another place we enjoy is "The Place" that's also about 10 minutes away & offers specialty coffees, treats and a store with many gift options, jewelry, candles, soaps, ect.
What makes this property unique
Our cabin is well stocked and has most of the extras you'll need to enjoy a great stay. We provide firewood for the outside firepit with chairs and a table. There are several sitting areas at the back of the cabin, and on the upper front deck as well. Our large 2-bed bedroom has a TV/DVD player combo that is a great room for families with kids. The controls are on the left & right side of the TV. We have a good collection of children and family movies to choose from. There is also a desk area with an office chair upstairs for those who must do a little work while on their vacation. We have 4 outside games for our guests to enjoy; corn hole, ladder ball, botchy ball & croquet. We aim to please and are usually close by if our guests need anything.
