This lake house has been remodeled including a new roof, windows and doors, furnace, new bath and has been completely repainted. There's just enough living space with a lovely vaulted kitchen, open window to the living room which connects to a dining nook, complete with a window seat. Two beds with a sleeping loft. Along the back is a wrap-around deck overlooking the channel, marsh, and a lake view. It's tranquil and private. Kayak or canoe out to the lake. Landscaped with a tool shed matching the house. Enjoy roasting marshmallows at the firepit, gaze at the stars, and listen to the bullfrogs. Dewey Lake is an all sport lake in the resort area of Sister Lakes, Michigan. Local produce stands, breweries, wine tours, and great golf courses are all just around the corner. Sister Lakes is less than two hours from Chicago and just over 30 minutes from Notre Dame.
