Substantially remodeled in 2017, the home features updated electrical and plumbing systems, along with an expansive 800-square-foot deck designed to maximize outdoor living and lake views. Inside, the kitchen showcases custom kitchen cabinets, granite countertops, microwave drawer, refrigerator, dishwasher and an original vintage stove that remains fully functional—a unique piece of the home's history.

Additional living space can be found in the finished attic area, accessed by pull-down stairs. This bonus room includes sleeping accommodations, making it ideal for guests or overflow family gatherings. Beneath the home, generous dry storage provides plenty of room for watercraft, fishing gear, and other seasonal equipment. The home is equipped with exterior weather-protection roller shades on the sliding glass door, kitchen door, and select windows, while wood shutters enhance the remaining windows. A thoughtfully designed walkway with built-in steps provides easy access down the slope to the shoreline. The property's private lake frontage is located in a quiet cove and includes both a dock and buoy, making it easy to enjoy boating, swimming, fishing, and all that lake living has to offer. Whether you're seeking a seasonal getaway or a treasured family retreat, the Creek Cabin offers privacy, character, and exceptional waterfront living on Bucks Lake. This home is on land leased from the US Forest Service
