The galley style kitchen offers plenty of room for meal and beverage prep and has great cupboard storage. A trash compactor makes quick work keeping trash at a minimum. The bathroom and bedrooms have been recently painted are ample size. The large living room has a dining area, woodstove and sliding doors to the deck to capture the view of the lake. It sits on I-beams, so you can be sure the cottage is well supported. There is a septic system and the domestic water is from a spring that is across the street. Property can also be used in the winter for snowmobiling and ice fishing. Maidstone is a 796 acre glacial formed lake that offers trout fishing and loon watching. There are also 3 hiking trails to explore the lake & forest that start at the campground area. If you are ready for a lake property, make sure this one makes your "must see" list.
