Buckeye Centre Waterfront Suites
A minute from Bobcaygeon's Lock 32
About this stay
The one-minute walk to Trent-Severn Waterway, Lock 32 is the defining feature here, closer to the waterway than any other listed property in Kawartha Lakes, putting guests within earshot of boats working through the lock. Suites come with free Wi-Fi and parking, and the property sits a further minute from Grâz for dinner, keeping the whole stay walkable without a car. Its kid-friendly listing and strong 9.8 rating from a modest review base suggest a well-run, family-appropriate property despite its small scale. At just under two hours from the airport, it sits in the same general range as the destination's other lakefront and waterfront properties, so this suits a longer Bobcaygeon-based trip rather than a quick overnight stop.

Our take
This suits travellers who specifically want to be near the Trent-Severn Waterway's lock activity, watching boats work through Lock 32 from a genuinely walkable distance. Families will appreciate the kid-friendly listing and the short walk to dinner. Travellers wanting resort amenities like a pool or spa should look to Eganridge instead, since Buckeye Centre keeps things simple.
- ✓Book a room facing the lock if watching boat traffic is a priority, ask directly when reserving.
- ✓Walk to Grâz for dinner, it is a minute away and keeps the evening simple without a car.
- ✓Visit during boating season for the most lock activity, roughly May through October.

Why guests love itBuckeye Centre Waterfront Suites sits a one-minute walk from Lock 32 of the Trent-Severn Waterway in Bobcaygeon, so children can watch boats pass through the lock almost from the door. The property is listed as kid-friendly and smoke-free, with free Wi-Fi and free parking. Its 9.8 rating comes from 29 reviews, a small but consistent sample. I would choose it for a summer family weekend built around the waterway rather than around hotel facilities.
