Description

Two bedroom, 'Old Northwoods' privately-owned, seasonal cabin on .6 acre, with 98.99 feet of frontage on Lac Vieux Desert: If it's your dream to find a cabin on the shores of Lac Vieux Desert, where you can spend vacations or weekends fishing, relaxing, and enjoying the breeze & the beauty of the Northern Lights, consider yourself lucky because your dream has just come true. This privately-owned cabin is now available and offers 2-BD, 1-BA, an open-concept living-dining-kitchen area, a small loft, a forced-air natural-gas heater in the crawl space, wall heater, an open deck, 10-yr old metal roof, a 15-yr old 8x12' storage shed, lakeside firepit, aluminum pier, shore station, and '99' feet of beautiful frontage on Lac Vieux Desert. Situated 50' from the shore, this cabin offers the quintessential get-away to a peaceful place where you can forget city life and listen to the rhythm of rippling waves and singing birds. The lot is mostly wooded requiring minimal yard maintenance, and the cabin is a 'quick clean,' so all can enjoy the lake or the many other recreational opportunities of the area, including silent & motorized sports and nearby pubs & restaurants. Owned for the past 30 years by the same owner, this little cutie is ready for her new owner to enjoy as is, or remodeled to personal tastes. If you'd like to be that person, call today because, as we all know, it's unusual to find private property available on Lac Vieux Desert, especially at this price point, only 50' from the water, and with a 'million-dollar view' of the lake. Lac Vieux Desert (meaning 'Lake of the Old Planting Ground'), has public boat landings, is 38' deep, 4017-surface acres, is a Wisconsin-Michigan boundary water, a prime fishery, and is renowned for its Walleye, Muskellunge (including tiger musky), and Northern Pike populations, as well as small- and largemouth bass. Scoop up this one before it gets away! Accepting offers. Call today.
