Tucked into the trees on approximately 2.4 acres, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers the privacy, character, and lake access that make Northern Minnesota living special. Inside, you'll find a warm cabin feel with wood accents, an open kitchen and living space, and a cozy fireplace. Outside is where this property really shines, with multiple decks and outdoor gathering spaces, a fire pit, storage buildings, garage/workshop space, and plenty of room to enjoy the surrounding woods. Across the road, your own Johnson Lake frontage gives you a place to keep the dock, launch the kayaks, fish, swim, or simply sit by the water and enjoy the view. Whether you're looking for a weekend cabin, seasonal getaway, or a place to call home in the Northwoods, this property gives you a little bit of everything: woods, water, privacy, and room to make it your own.
