About this home

Public Remarks: Lake Wisconsin/Merrimac: Family owned for over 65 years and now you have an opportunity to buy this property to start the next chapter. 1.09 wooded acres with over 450' of waterfront makes this the perfect setting. The 3 season 2 bedroom 1 bath cabin & boat house will need some TLC to make it shine again or build your dream home. Gentle sloping land for an exposed lower level. Fish right from your pier and enjoy Lake Wisconsin. Close to restaurants, skiing & Devils Lake. Seller stated a squirrel had gotten into the cabin through the chimney and did the damage that is there.
