About this home

Lakefront properties that are furnished, functional, and ready to enjoy are not easy to find. This 3-bedroom, 1-bath cottage sits on nearly an acre with approximately 121 feet of frontage on Runkle Lake. Enjoy this all-sports lake from the private dock, lake-facing deck, enclosed porch and spacious living area, with opportunities for boating, swimming, fishing or simply taking in the view. The property is being offered furnished and is currently operating as a short-term rental, giving the next owner flexibility to use it as a seasonal retreat, year-round residence or furnished waterfront property with rental potential. The home is comfortable as-is while leaving room to make updates over time. A detached 24x24 two-car garage provides valuable space for vehicles, lake equipment and recreational gear. Private well, septic, propane forced-air heat and year-round private-road access complete this ready-to-enjoy Upper Peninsula lake property. Existing reservations and continued rental use are subject to separate agreement and buyer verification.

This charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath country cottage offers 121 feet of hard-bottom sandy frontage on beautiful Runkle Lake. Nestled in a peaceful wooded setting but just minutes from town, this home provides the perfect blend of privacy and convenience. The house and detached two-car garage both feature durable metal roofs, while recent updates include a 100-amp electrical service and a forced air furnace installed in 2020. Inside you'll find laminate flooring flows through the kitchen, dining area, hallway, and bath. Relax and take in the serene lake views from the treated deck or unwind in the cozy 11’x12’ screened porch. A circular gravel driveway offers plenty of parking, adding to the home’s convenience. Runkle Lake, home of the infamous Bass Festival, spans 76 acres, reaching depths of up to 50 feet, and is known for excellent Bass, panfish, and Walleye fishing. An old fence line marks both sides of the parcel. A newer dock was added a couple of years ago to enjoy the waterfront. This inviting lakeside retreat is an affordable opportunity— don’t miss your chance to own a piece of U. P. waterfront! Updated photos to come. Some are from previous rental listing.
