Priced to sell! This comfortable cottage rests on a beautiful northwoods lot on 622 acre Vermilac Lake! Vermilac Lake is great for fishing, with species including northern pike, walleye, perch, crappie, bluegill, bass and more! The cottage is first class, with tongue & groove pine, hickory cabinets, cedar bathroom, woodstove, open loft, beamed open ceiling and much more. Plenty of room with 3 bedrooms, 1 bath and over 1,000 square feet of finished living space. The lot is a mix of woods, lawn, and has a great terraced walkway leading down to the dock along its 141 feet of lake frontage. Everything about this place was done the right way, and you couldn't come close to reproducing everything at this price. A must see!
