Overview

Description

A Rare Opportunity on Legendary Lake Winnibigoshish! Treasured by the same family since the 1930s, this charming lease cabin is rich in history, character, and Northwoods tradition. After the original cabin was lost to fire in the early 1970s, the current cabin was thoughtfully rebuilt and has continued to be a place where generations have gathered to make lifelong memories. Inside, you'll find a vaulted ceiling, beautiful birch beams, and a stunning birch staircase. The kitchen offers plenty of storgae and the bathrooms provide added convenience. A main-level bedroom and large loft offer plenty of sleeping for family and guests. You'll enjoy easy access to some of Minnesota's finest walleye fishing, boating, and outdoor recreation. This is a Federal Lease land cabin. Federal lease is $4,451 per year. 29 year lease renews in 2029. Septic is being updated.
