The Rustic Buffalo

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Find yourself perched just 60 feet from the clear waters of Buffalo Lake when you call this lakefront gem home base! As soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by three acres of wooded property that surround the home and give it a perfect sense of seclusion. Step inside, and discover stunning views of the lake from nearly every room, and everyone will be able to spread out and find their own piece of paradise between two bedrooms, an open living area, and a well-equipped, full kitchen. Enjoy stress-free comforts like free WiFi during your stay.

When you want a bit of fresh air, simply step out to the furnished back deck with a favorite drink in hand, throw a few logs in the firepit, or head down to the private dock to watch the sunset in bliss. Launch the provided kayaks and explore the open waters, plus there is great fishing right from home if you feel like trying your luck at catching large and small bass, walleyes, or panfish. And when the stars come out, you will hear the loons calling from the lake and slip right into sweet dreams to recharge for another wonderful day ahead. With so much fun right at your fingertips, don't wait a second longer! Make your way to the Rustic Buffalo.

Rustic Buffalo
What a lovely place! The accomodations were perfect for a lake side vacation.The cabin was cozy and and homey. We loved Buffalo Lake becuase it was very quiet. There was very little motor traffic. The cabin and grounds were pristine. We took advantage of the kayacks and had a great time on the neighboring Cunard and Little Bass Lakes. Location was very convenient to St. Germaine and Minoquoa/Woodruff. We hope to be able to come back for future vacations!

Gem In the Quiet Woods
This is an absolutely gorgeous cabin in the quiet woods. For those who are traveling in small group or family. No wifi, so leave it all behind... A fire pit, lake access, a dock to stargaze at night from, and trails nearby made this perfect for those who are really looking for peace and getting away from the things of man. The cabin is tastefully decorated and really gives you the comfortable "Up North" feeling. Loved everything about it and hope to be back!

Beautiful view
Everything was great. Only thing that can be improved on is the queen size bed needs a new mattress badly.
