6442 Otter Trail - Listing Description. Very rare opportunity to own your year-round dwelling, or if you desire, the perfect getaway home away from home. Located within the beautiful Forest Lake community directly on the water, this two bedroom, one and a half bath home with a single car attached garage is posed to impress. Located on the North Side of Arenac County, the Forest Lake Community boasts many opportunities for summer and winter activities alike. In the summer, enjoy life on the lake whether that be on the community beach, your favorite boat/water toys, or even on the adjacent, precisely located Rifle River (kayaking, fishing, tubing, swimming). Depending on the map you review, this community is located adjacent to over 6400 acres of state land with hundreds of miles of ORV trails, and again, thousands of acres of hunting opportunities. Also, the community is golf cart, ORV friendly with the appropriate documentation. Inside, you will find hardwood floors, large windows/skylights to allow natural sunlight, highrise ceilings, and a beautifully crafted stone tile/brick backdrop for the very large wood burner. Each room is individually electronically controlled baseboard heat. The basement can be accessed from a neatly hidden staircase within one of the bedroom closets, or from the outside via an access door under the deck. Inside of the basement is a large family and a bonus bedroom that has its very own built-in twin beds. All of the utilities are tucked away in the basement utility area. Outside you will be pleased to find a very large deck with a spacious screened area for all of your mosquito free entertainment events. A defined walk path has been created to help guide you down to the over 90’ of lake front portion of the property. By the lake is also located a storage shed for summer and winter toys to be stowed away. If you drive an electric vehicle, the seller is leaving the electrical vehicle charging station. All appliances stay and all personal possessions may be conveyed at close at no additional costs to the buyer. Seller has already paid, in-full the initial special assessment, and has advised that the second portion is negotiable by the buyer. Please see the Forest Lake website, or call them directly for all special assessment information.
