About this home
The gate closes behind you, and almost immediately, the noise of the outside world begins to fade.
A Winding drive leads to a place where time moves a little slower-a place where families have gathered, stories have been shared, and summers have been measured not by calendars, but by sunsets. Built in 1959 and tucked along the shores of Crow Wing Lake, this authentic log cabin has been thoughtfully updated while remaining true to its Northwoods roots.
As you step inside, the warmth of natural wood surrounds you. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area invites conversation, laughter, and lazy afternoons spent watching the lake shimmer through the windows. Unique custom lighting fixtures cast a warm glow throughout the cabin, adding character and artistry while complementing the rustic beauty of the log interior. Every detail feels intentional, blending vintage charm with modern comfort.
Then comes the moment that makes this property unforgettable.
Slide open the patio door and take seven easy steps towards the water's edge. That's it-just seven. The lake feels less like a view and more like an extension of the home itself. Morning coffee is enjoyed on the 12x22 lakeside deck as mist rises from the water and loons call in the distance. Boats drift by. Eagles soar overhead. The day unfolds at its own pace.
Afternoons are spent barefoot on the expansive patio, where family and friends gather after a day on the lake. Stories are shared around the fire pit as the sun begins its slow descent across the water, painting the sky with shades of gold, pink, and deep Minnesota blue.
Inside, two cozy bedrooms and a beautifully customized interior offer a comfortable place to unwind after days filled with swimming, fishing, boating, and making memories. The cabin's professionally maintained logs, updated sliding patio door, and modern water treatment system provide peace of mind while preserving the authentic character that only a true log home can offer.
Offered turnkey, this is more than a cabin-it is a place where traditions begin, where generations reconnect, and where some of life's best moments happen without ever leaving the shoreline.
On Crow Wing Lake, just seven steps from the water, your next chapter is waiting....
