About the property

Escape to this peaceful lakefront retreat nestled in a serene natural setting of woods and water. As the last home before the shoreline turns into protected forest, you’ll enjoy unmatched privacy with no neighbors on the east side and stunning, uninterrupted views. Across the lake, a state nature preserve keeps the area quiet, with minimal boat traffic, perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Nature lovers will feel right at home with frequent sightings of local wildlife, including loons, herons, frogs, newts, and even bald eagles.

Enjoy all the essentials for a memorable stay, including a swimmable dock, kayaks, a fire pit, a game room, and both a balcony and patio to take in the views. A public boat launch is conveniently located on the opposite side of the lake, and boat trailer parking is available on-site.

Whether you're looking to unwind by the water, explore nature, or gather around the fire under the stars, this quiet lakefront escape offers the perfect setting.
