About this home

This private, Long Lake property offers many opportunities for the outdoor enthusiasts! Hunting, fishing, ATV/snowmobiling, hiking or whatever your heart desires. The property has 467' of shoreline and 20 acres of wooded, rolling land, plenty of hardwoods, evergreens and other various trees. Nestled amongst the trees is a 20' x 22' cabin with an 8' x 20' screened-in porch, outbuilding, privy and a private boat launch for smaller boats. The cabin is lined with metal and is powered by LP gas for range/oven, lighting and refrigeration. A wood burning fireplace/stove located in the middle of the cabin provides heat. Running along and under the existing driveway is a babbling creek - how relaxing. The property is zoned residential and entered into a Managed Forest Law program, so taxes are very inexpensive. There is a total of 3 separate parcels that equal the 20 acres. There is plenty of privacy, wildlife, quietness and nice views of the woods and water.
