Description

Good, getaway on the Pike Lake Road. Prime location out north of Babineau Corner – out in the wonderful woods of the Superior National Forest! Yet not too far to Grand Marais and all the fun and doins’ there! 13+ acres of elbow room and “plays” even larger, abutting public land on the north side. The SW corner “kisses” public land, too. Sweet Murmur Cr gets its start out this way and cuts across the property providing additional interest to the surrounding pure boreal woods. Cabin is all about functionality...Good, getaway on the Pike Lake Road. Prime location out north of Babineau Corner – out in the wonderful woods of the Superior National Forest! Yet not too far to Grand Marais and all the fun and doins’ there! 13+ acres of elbow room and “plays” even larger, abutting public land on the north side. The SW corner “kisses” public land, too. Sweet Murmur Cr gets its start out this way and cuts across the property providing additional interest to the surrounding pure boreal woods. Cabin is all about functionality and creating memories! Two full-size bunkbeds make this place the ideal deer camp, family getaway, or open it up and make the place a studio for dreaming big and making stuff! Stalwart woodstove keeps it cozy even during the deep winter cold. Propane wall furnace is steady-eddy. The cabin started life back in the 50s, so there’s a vibe here! Then came a 2001 addition by the current owners, lovingly envisioned and labored on to make this just the perfect go-to for adventure, escape, or remotely doing the job with the fiber optic purring at the wall! Big ‘ol deck for BBQing, bird-watching, aurora borealis viewing… heck take a nap. Spacious shed keeps all the tools, etc and part of it has a simple, rustic shower. Legitimate, tidy outhouse. The land has a lofty feel, with good views to the setting sun each and every day you are out here living the woods-life. North side of lot has a good buildsite, well away from the cabin. So, dreaming here a bit, maybe you do a house over there eventually and the cabin becomes the guest place or a rental. Lots of options, and wow, hard to beat this price in Cook County! Come have a look: dream a bit and get going on that vision of realigning with your goals, the plan of getting a foothold Up North!
