Escape to your own private off-grid haven on Fish Lake, offering 271 feet of pristine shoreline and unmatched seclusion. Accessible by boat in the warmer months and by snowmobile once the snow falls, this unique property is surrounded on all sides by state land, creating a true wilderness retreat with access to nearby trail systems. A cozy cabin footprint is supported by practical off-grid amenities: power is supplied by generator, while both the refrigerator and stove run on propane for reliable, low-maintenance living. Two sturdy sheds provide ample storage for gear, tools, and recreational equipment — perfect for anyone who wants to fully embrace lake life, hunting, fishing, or year-round adventure.
