Look no further-this is the cabin you’ve been dreaming of! Do you want to feel like you're floating on water? Take a tour of this adorable, lovingly cared for modern-vintage cabin that sits on the highest bank of beautiful Smith Lake. At the height of summer, it still feels like you’ve got the lake all to yourself. As you enter the living area, you will be awed by the panoramic view before you. Enjoy the stunning sunset out the west-facing windows, on the deck, or gathered around the lakeside firepit roasting marshmallows. Smith Lake is a nature lover's paradise complete with nesting loons, pelicans, herons, song birds, & water fowl. On a clear night, you experience the true meaning of "dark sky"-it’s perfect for stargazing from the dock! Cast a line & you’ll catch the local legend: the largemouth bass are unbeatable! Crappie, sunfish, northern, walleye & perch are also ready to bite. Conveniently located near I-94 & just minutes from Alexandria & Osakis, this gem offers easy access to all the amenities you need-while still delivering that quiet lake life that you crave. Make new memories here, & welcome to the lake!
This is the cabin you have been waiting for! Located on serene Smith Lake, even when summer is in full swing, you feel like the lake belongs to just you and the neighbors. Absolutely stunning sunset views from both the dinner table and living room, or at the firepit roasting marshmallows. The furnace, central air, and water heater were new with the master bedroom addition 5 years ago. With the remodeled laundry area, 3rd bedroom and mudroom, it is move-in ready, and only minutes from all the amenities Alexandria has to offer. The fishermen boast that largemouth bass are the best here, but also hook crappie, sunfish, northern pike, walleye, & perch. Welcome to the lake!!!
