Nestled on its very own private island in the serene waters of Big Tupper Lake, this enchanting log cabin offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a secluded retreat. Accessible only by boat, this property includes a mainland dock for easy access to the island, ensuring both convenience and privacy.
The main cabin was built in the 1920's with natural timber logs that blend harmoniously with the surrounding landscape. Inside, the cabin boasts an open-concept living area with high vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and a stone fireplace as the focal point. The large windows throughout invite ample natural light while offering panoramic views of the mountains and water from nearly every room. A new addition includes a kitchen equipped with modern appliances, a washer and dryer and a half bath.
The guest cottage boasts two bedrooms and a full bathroom.
Surrounded by mature trees and natural rock formations, the island offers ample space for outdoor living. A sandy beach is just steps away from the sauna near the floating boat house in the secluded cove on the back side of the island. An outdoor pavilion is perfect for grilling and entertaining.
For convenient access, a mainland dock is included in the sale, making it easy to get to the island by boat. The dock is located on a quiet road just a short distance from the island and provides ample parking for vehicles and boats.
Please come take a look at this unique Adirondack Island Retreat that is a true Gem and rare to find!
