Enjoy this 'turn-key' cottage that has a sugar sand beach and views West for sunsets. Leased Land cottage is affordable, but must be a cash transaction as lenders will not finance the purchase of personal property dwellings/buildings on leased land. Historically, land-owner provides a 5 yr term written lease. In effect, a cottage owner is leasing the site from a land owner for a fixed annual amount which in this case is $7,414 p/yr with seasonal occupancy from May 1 to Oct 31st. Has nice alumnium pier and modern appliances included. 35 x 150' lakefront lot plus back-lot 35 x 65' with 2-car detached garage. Tremendous lake views from deck, living room, and bedroom on this 500 acre all-sport lake. Go to our website for lease details, lease copy and seller disclosures. Lines on aerials are approximates and not a survey.
