Come enjoy some of the best views on the entire lake, sweeping 180 degrees capturing three mountain ranges and several other islands! A u-shape dock with breakwater make for easy docking for two boats. The front of the home has a large deck perfect for morning coffee, while listening to the songbirds, great for dining, or just relaxing. The open concept great room has 8' sliders, cathedral ceilings, skylights and a cupola, providing abundant natural sunlight. The pellet stove will keep you warm on cool spring and fall afternoons, allowing you to extend your stay on the island well into late fall. Just off the great room is a mudroom with a half bath and laundry. Abutting this is a three-quarter bath and three bedrooms, two of which offer lake views. Behind the cottage is easy access to the many trails on the island interior where you'll find wildlife, and maybe even see a Bald Eagle. By day, enjoy an amazing panorama of the lake and mountains, and by dusk, watch another one of Mother Nature's beautiful sunsets. The island association owns property on the mainland consisting of two parking lots, a boat launch and two transient docks. Not too late to start experiencing lake life this season!
