The open floor plan features a 40' long room which includes a kitchen with breakfast table, dining room and living room with gas fireplace. The back of the cabin has a lakeside yard with a gentle slope down to a small beach area and new private dock with sitting bench. All furniture, appliances, cookware, canoe, dock and more are included with the sale. This cabin comes with shared ownership in 14 acres of common space which includes a sandy beach, waters edge sauna and an area for garage/storage sheds. Fenske Lake is a quiet lake just 15 minutes north of Ely with clear water and very little development. This is a great spot to come relax for days, weeks or even months at a time. Owner/Agent
