Own a piece of Northwoods history with this rare opportunity to acquire a generational heritage property that has been cherished for decades. This rustic property features vintage timber, weathered wood, and hand-crafted details that showcase true local history. Designed with an authentic camp vibe, the open and inviting layout evokes the cozy simplicity of a traditional wilderness lifestyle, offering a unique blend of rustic charm and timeless character. Experience the warmth and nostalgia of a true Northwoods Deer Camp in a cabin that tells a story of craftsmanship and heritage. The cabin has electricity, a permitted St Louis County 1000 gallon holding tank, a wonderful lakeside deck with a covered 10 x 12 area for intermittent weather and storage. A new toilet/shower room was added a few years ago which adds to the charm for 3 seasons. The cabin has propane and wood heat and vintage features that came with a 1930’s Basswood Lake Cabin that was moved to this site years ago. Although the cabin had an excellent history on Basswood Lake, it is here on this lot on Wolf Lake where it found itself a permanent home. The 3-acre lot, measures 400 Feet wide and 300 feet deep, backed by 40 acres of State of Minnesota land to the south of the property. The lot offers 380 feet of Wolf Lake Shoreline and although the lot is a bit lower, there is a nice wide area that was developed for boat launch and easy lake access. The wheeled dock is invaluable when boating or just watching the sunsets and wildlife. This parcel was known locally as the Brobin Deer Camp, with a generational history of successful deer hunts. It was a place to gather the year round and enjoy the outdoors in comfort. Wolf Lake offers excellent fishing and a quiet lake to enjoy the building of happy memories we carry throughout our lives.
