Do you dream about spending lazy summer days on the water, boating, fishing, swimming, and water skiing? Don’t let another summer go by without turning that dream into a reality. Built in 1990, this adorable 2-bed, 1-bath cabin is situated on a point on the western side of Island Lake, less than 30 minutes north of Duluth. The living room is warm and inviting with its tongue and groove vaulted ceiling and lake facing windows. The bright and open eat-in kitchen also has a view of the water and offers plenty of space for gathering with loved ones and recalling the day’s shenanigans. There is even high speed fiber optic cable internet. Crisp fall mornings are just around the corner! Grab a cup of coffee and a cozy blanket, and head out to the back deck where you can watch the sun rise over the lake. And you’ll love the mature trees, piney air, and privacy! Because the cabin is perched on a hill, the bird’s eye lake view will spoil you all year long. Take steps down to the water and enjoy your private beach. Store your water toys, lawn and garden tools in the small shed or in the two car garage. This is the stuff memories are made of. Come and see it for yourself!
