This spic and span full log cabin is on the shores of pristine Lake Ellen and as a delightful bonus has over 35 acres of wooded privacy. A squeaky clean kitchen and bath help with the creature comforts. With 2 bedrooms and a picture book dining/living room with a wood stove you can enjoy a truly northwoods experience. The roof has had a special treatment to add insulation and keeps the summer heat out and the winter heat in. Imagine spending the day on the wrap around deck watching the abundant wildlife on the lake and surrounding land. Lake Ellen is a 144 acre no skiing or high speed boating lake with crystal clear waters that have depths of over 60 feet. The water is of such high quality that it is stocked with Splake every year. There are plenty of other fish including pan fish and bass to catch if you want variety for your fish fry. Enjoy a peaceful swim in the clear waters after you take a hike around your acreage and right out the back are hundreds of acres of timber and State of MI lands open to the public. ATV and snowmobile trails are accessible and can take you all over the picturesque Upper Peninsula. For added opportunities the 6400 acre Michigamme Reservoir is just minutes away and provides endless outdoor recreational opportunities.
