Nestled on the serene Upper Lake of Lake Minnetonka, Crane Island is a historic enclave listed on the National Register of Historic Places, celebrated for its rich history and exclusive community. This charming 1910 cabin, one of only 15 homes on the island, blends early 20th-century character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Accompanied by a 2009 cedar guest cottage, a private 88-foot dock, and access to unparalleled island amenities, this turn-key property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lake Minnetonka's legacy, just 30 minutes from downtown Minneapolis.
