What's special
Experience the best of lake life in every season with this move-in ready cabin on the North Shore of Mille Lacs Lake. With southern exposure, you'll enjoy breathtaking sunrises and sunsets from the large deck overlooking panoramic lake views. A gradual elevation leads to a sandy shoreline and lakeside fire pit, perfect for making memories with family and friends. Inside, the lower-level bunk room, wet bar, and cozy game room with gas fireplace (added in 2021) provide comfortable spaces to relax year-round, while the two-car garage offers ample storage for vehicles, lake toys, and outdoor equipment. Over $30,000 invested between 2020-2022 for the premium DAKA dock and ShoreStation lift that are included with the property. Enjoy renowned Walleye, Muskie, and Smallmouth Bass fishing, incredible bird watching, and spectacular views of the Northern Lights and Milky Way. In winter, snowmobile directly from the property to your fish house, nearby trails, and local restaurants. Located just two hours from the Twin Cities metro area, this is your opportunity to be on one of Minnesota's premier fishing and recreational lakes.
