Once in a lifetime will you find 9.8 acres that shares boundaries with Patoka Lake with a 2,048 square foot cabin. Tucked away in a peaceful wooded setting, this charming cabin offers the kind of privacy and rustic atmosphere that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. Enjoy the morning sunsets on the wrap around porch. Surrounded by mature trees and nature, the property feels like a true retreat. The water heater, furnace and air conditioner are all 2 years old providing even more peace of mind. This cabin makes for the perfect weekend getaway, hunting cabin, recreational property, or a quiet place to call home. You are only minutes away from the nearest boat ramp, S Lickfork Boat ramp and 12 minutes from Hoosier Hills Marina. While it only has 2 official bedrooms, the upstairs open concept has been used as a bunk room, thus the cabin can sleep up to 16 people. This location and the amenities make for the perfect recipe for an AirBnB or VRBO property! You truly must see this one to appreciate and just breathe in the peace this property has to offer.
