A cottage on the channel of Magician Lake. Charming with knotty pine throughout. Clever use of space. Living room with a fireplace and sliding doors to the patio. Two bedrooms and bath which offers a stand-alone shower and overhead warming heat light. Dishwasher in the galley kitchen. Sewer. 40' of frontage. Convenient boat parking cutout. Short troll out in your pontoon to the 528 acre all sport lake. Bubblers in the channel, so the water is moving and does not become stagnant. It is a delightful lake community with neighbors aligning both sides of the canal. Enjoy a fire under the stars. Cast a fishing pole. Coffee on the patio. Moderately priced lake living. There is a garden shed and room roadside for a garage. Magician Lake is a premier all sport lake in the resort area of Sister Lakes, Michigan. The Lake Life is fabulous, but Sister Lakes has much more to offer. Taste the freshest produce from the local produce stands. Sample beers at our new breweries. Take a wine tour. SW Michigan offers 30 different venues. Great golf courses are just around the corner. Winter enjoyment, too, with miles of snowmobile trails and ice fishing. Sister Lakes is less than two hours from Chicago and just over 30 minutes from Notre Dame.
