Spanning 1.42 acres of natural beauty, this one-of-a-kind property offers a lifestyle of peace, privacy, and total escape-only accessible by boat.

Designed for off-grid comfort, the home runs on propane-powered appliances (refrigerator, stove, hot water heater, and lights), with electricity available via generator, and a private well and septic system for full self-sufficiency.

A private sandy beach on the west side of the island provides the perfect spot for swimming and enjoying the water, while the 18' x 17' additional structure can be used for storing lake toys, tools, or as a cozy bunkhouse for guests. Enjoy true island living-cook your meals on the grill with lake views, or hop in your boat and cruise over to one of the local lakeside restaurants for a casual bite or sunset dinner. Whether you're seeking a peaceful weekend retreat, a one-of-a-kind vacation rental, or your personal escape from the world, this is more than just a property-it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own your own private island.
