Property Description
Lake Shafer cottage living at 3812 E Forest Lodge Loop in Parses Forest Lodge. This easy 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat offers about 583 finished square feet of knotty-pine cabin charm plus the feature buyers come to Monticello for: your own wooded walk down to a private dock on a quiet Lake Shafer cove. Start on the oversized covered front porch--stained timber frame, wood decking, and a brick walk through the hostas--then step inside to one open living and kitchen space with pine walls, tile floors, and ceiling fans. The kitchen is ready to use with knotty pine cabinets, a stainless side-by-side refrigerator, gas range, microwave, and a dining area that stays in the same room as the living space. Two bedrooms and a full bath with tub/shower keep the footprint simple and low-maintenance. Out back, a paver patio and fire pit sit under the trees with a shed and stacked firewood for weekend nights. Follow the stairs through the woods to the dock, boat lifts, and slips--bring the pontoon and settle into a shaded cove just off the main lake. Aerials show the Forest Lodge shoreline, nearby marina activity, and open farmland behind the loop. Ideal as a weekend getaway, starter lake cottage, or low-upkeep year-round home close to Twin Lakes amenities. Room sizes and square footage are approximate per floor plan and should be independently verified. Dock, lifts, and watercraft convey only as agreed in writing.
