Why you’ll love it
This premium real estate listing features a 978-square-foot, modernized log cabin nestled on 15 pristine acres with over 200 feet of private lakeshore on Pickerel Lake in the heart of northern Minnesota's wilderness. The cozy, true Northwoods log cabin featuring timeless rustic architecture and a modern, ceramic freestanding wood fireplace to handle crisp autumn nights and snowy Minnesota winters. Spanning the 15-acre footprint, the parcel is heavily wooded with a mature, vibrant mix of native birch, aspen, pine, and balsam trees. Over 200 feet of private lake frontage grants direct access to the clear waters of Pickerel Lake, which you can also boat into Deer and Battle lakes for unlimited boating and exploring. This end of the road property borders hundreds of acres of public land, dramatically expanding your playground for hunting, hiking, and exploring. Situated near regional snowmobile and ATV trail networks, making it a perfect year-round staging ground for motorsports. Pickerel Lake and its surrounding waters are populated with a healthy ecosystem of walleye, northern pike, bass and panfish. The property features lots of updates (see list in supplements), high speed fiber optic internet and a storage shed with an integrated wood-fired sauna/shower room. There is plenty of additional room to park boats, ATVs, and summer toys. 68' newer aluminum dock included. Cabin sold as-is.
