Hunter- this cabin was a great location. So peacefull and nice. Great stay.

Beautiful area. Close walk to small town for takeout or walk. Loved our stay. Had such a great stay. Loved everything. My only suggestion is a bed upgrade (queen size)

We had a week stay in the Hunter at Shady Point Resort. Three bedroom so ample room for the four adults and two grandchildren aged 2 and 5. Nice playground for the children and the beach was walk in for the littles. Enjoyed watching other cottages navigate the lazy river and daily visits from the chickens and hens. Personally we didn’t use the sauna but, lots of other cottagers did. Kitchen was very well eqipped. Thank you Mo and Andy for your great communication and assisting us in having a wonderful weekend with family! Will see you again!

Great location

This was the perfect little cottage for our family vacation. There was a good boat dock allowing us easy access to Upper Buckhorn Lake and Pigeon. There was a nice beach area for the kids to play, partially shaded at times of the day which was nice and a nice clear lazy river that the kids had a lot of fun with. Wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thanks Mo and Andy

Excellent!

Check in set up was smooth. Excellent communication. The hosts couldn't do enough for us and the lake was spectacular! We were there early October for 2 nights so we had the whole place to ourselves, including kayaks and a paddleboard. Fire pit and chairs for marshmallows. Perfect!
