Tucked along the steady flow of the Deer River, this classic riverside cabin—known as Riversong—offers a simple, peaceful place to unplug. You’ll hear the river moving over the rocks and winding past the cottage—day and night. To experience this property, use this link for a 3D Tour https://northcountry360tours.com/151WestCotterRd The location is a standout—just a short drive to expansive state lands—making it a perfect base camp for hunting, hiking, and all-season adventure. There are nearby trails for UTV’s and snowmobiling. Whether you’re scouting the woods or rolling in for the weekend with a truck full of gear, Riversong delivers the kind of no-fuss getaway that’s hard to find. Right out back the riverside of the cottage offers a private spot to kick back and watch the water move by, with a panoramic forest view across the way. The cottage features a half bath serviced by a 300-gallon holding tank, ensuring convenience without compromising on charm. The kitchen is well appointed with ample counter and cabinet space, providing a cozy spot for meals, especially on rainy days. In the living room, a standalone propane gas stove takes the edge off the chill, while vaulted ceilings with a ceiling fan add to the airy ambiance. Adjacent to the living room, a sunroom with sliding doors seamlessly blend the indoors with the outdoors, inviting nature to become a part of daily life. The bedroom, located off the kitchen on the riverside, ensures that the gentle lullaby of the river will soothe you to sleep each night. The cottage is furnished and stocked, so it’s ready to use and enjoy from day one. A storage shed on the property houses the water pump, which draws water from the river. Although the water is untreated and non-potable, it serves as a reminder of the simplicity and natural beauty that defines Riversong. This delightful cottage offers an affordable opportunity to own your own retreat and truly immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature.
