Tucked along a peaceful bay on Fourth Lake, this 3.89-acre property offers 212 feet of waterfront in a sheltered setting ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, and quiet days by the water, while still providing easy access to the main lake. The property includes a 1075-square-foot log cabin with a full basement, open half-story, and porch overlooking the bay, along with a separate 744-square-foot guest cottage with an open floor plan. Both structures have been cleaned out and are ready for renovation, offering a wonderful starting point for creating a private, year-round Adirondack retreat. Conveniently located between Old Forge and Inlet, adjacent to the Petrie Road neighborhood and near state land.
