About this property

Modern Lakefront house, steps away from water's edge and Island Lake fishing

Beautifully remodeled lakefront home that blends comfort, style, and stunning natural surroundings. This fully furnished retreat features a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, cookware, utensils, and everything needed for an effortless stay. Fiber optic internet ensures fast, reliable connectivity for work or streaming.

Enjoy outdoor living at its best with two spacious patio decks, a grill, and direct lake access just steps away, complete with a private dock. Take in breathtaking sunrise and sunset views from the deck or backyard, overlooking a peaceful, scenic bay that connects to all of Island Lake.

Inside, the home is thoughtfully appointed with flat-screen TVs in both the living room and primary bedroom. The primary suite offers a king-size bed and a luxurious ensuite spa bath with a glass-enclosed rain shower, jetted soaking tub, and double sinks.

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, the property includes a stand-up paddleboard, two single-person kayaks, and life vests. Bring your own boat—launch it at a nearby public ramp and tie up right at the private dock.

Conveniently located near local dining favorites, including Northern Lights Tavern and a seasonal roadside stand serving ice cream, burgers, and more, plus another charming restaurant just across the Rice Lake bridge offering classic American fare. The home is also just 20 minutes from Duluth International Airport, with easy access to shopping at Costco, Target, and Walmart in Duluth.
Available for 30-day minimum rentals, this lakefront escape is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and create lasting memories.

Great property

Very nice property and clean also. Private but just a short drive to restaurants, etc. Loved being on the lake. Owner was very accommodating when we extended our stay twice for work reasons. We would definitely rent this property again if my company has another project in the area.

Slice of paradise.

Lake living is a luxury and we appreciate Roy so much for opening his gorgeous home to us. Roy was very communicative if there was anything we needed during our month stay. This property is the closest you can be to town on Island Lake but you don't even need to go there are restaurants and market right across the main road. Thank you Roy, we are back next year!
