About this property

The Lucky Buc-Pet friendly cottage perfect for a couple or small family.

  • This property is ideal for a couple or a small family. It has a queen bed(sheets are NOT provided), and pull out cot. The Lucky Buc adjoins the Buccaneer. There is a privacy fence separating the two, but a gate to open up if renting The Buccaneer with family or friends. We are located 0.1 mile from Zillie's, 0.3 mile from the Community Square on HWY 12 and 2.1 miles from the lifeguard beach.

    We do NOT post on Craigslist, so if you see it there it is not us renting it. We only go through VRBO/Home Away.

    We do not offer refunds for weather related cancellations, ferry issues or illness. We highly recommend that you purchase optional travel insurance. f you want to do early check in there is an additional $45 fee. It is extra added stress for our cleaners to have everything ready for those that get here on an early ferry. Normal check in time is 3:30 pm and check out time is 11:00. If you want to check out late it is a $100 fee.

The perfect home!

We had a incredible time staying in this lovely home for a week. Was clean, private location, big deck, had pretty nature views, friendly and helpful owners, secure gate for fur babies & the outdoor shower was also incredible…truly couldn’t have asked for more! We will definitely rent the lucky buc in the future!

Excellent choice!

My husband and I made an excellent choice when we decided to stay at The Lucky Buc! It was perfect for a long weekend get-away! It was very clean, very easy to find, and located in a good spot right in the middle of the village, yet off of the main road just far enough. We really enjoyed our time there and would highly recommend anyone looking for a cozy, pet-friendly spot to vacation to check it out!! :)

Wonderful

Third stay in this property, fourth with this owner. Very happy with the stay. Only suggestion would be a section of palisade fence between the second door and the outdoor shower. Property is actually even more quiet now since the campground across the way became annual leases only.

Just what we needed

The cottage was perfect for how we wanted to spend our getaway. Dinners out, fishing, beach and long walks. I could make breakfast and put together lunch for our outings. It was wonderful having our dog and meeting Noodles….the owners dog who is absolutely darling. My husband and I will keep this location in our favorite file for the future!!!

Beach vaca

Loved location of cottage! Easy walk to shopping and restaurants. Outside shower was great. Bed was comfy. Living area needed repair to couch and several spotlights were out. The AC unit in living area was very loud. The place stayed nice and cool though, The cottage was very quiet which was nice.

Comfortable Cottage

My dog and I enjoyed staying at the Lucky Buc. It was a comfortable oasis after a day at the beach. The cottage was very clean, and nicely decorated. It was a little too hot, and a little bit too many mosquitos to spend very much time out on the nice deck, but the enclosure was very nice for my dog. The outdoor shower was really great for washing off sandy feet and sandy paws before coming inside. AC worked well. Owners were very nice. I'll book again for next year.

Our stay

It was not very clean, hole under the door, raccoons on porch during day trying to get in trash. I thought the raccoons could possibly pass through that hole so we stuffed it. We could not leave our dog on the patio because of this. The gate was broken. The floor was full of sand. The couch was also broken and sticky. Odd and end pieces in kitchen. Be sure to bring EVERYTHING you need because they do not supply anything. Too add good points the check in and out was awesome. Host was extremely kind and accommodating. The AC works fantastic and you need it there trust me. The island was so much fun and the beach amazing. Once we got everything clean, the place was ok. I would invest in fixing things, a new couch and chair, fix the gate, the hole, update utensils in the kitchen, leave trash bags and paper towels even dish soap and cleaning supplies. If your guest tear anything up, make them pay for it. You’re in a great location but you could do better so just do better. Good luck to you in the future.

Great place to stay and very convenient. Well socked for cooking, but remember to bring queen sized sheets and towels. Only drawback was the lack of a proper dining table, but otherwise very highly recommended!
