About this property
Enjoy the "Golden Shoreline" of Big Sturgeon & McCarthy Beach.
This is a unique and much-desired property. It is spacious and without a doubt... sits on some of the most desirable lakeshore/beach property on the Sturgeon chain of lakes. The property has been enjoyed by 4 generations of family and is a place where memories are made.
Description of property:
The property itself is spacious and sits on 4 lots giving the cabin 4X the norm in both grounds and beach area. It offers an extended beach with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy, play and relax.
The cabin is located just steps away from McCarthy State Beach & Park both by water and by land. The sandy beach on Sturgeon Lake was rated one of the top 17 beaches in North America by Highway’s Magazine. Walk along the half-mile of shoreline or venture out into the shallow water that extends hundreds of feet into the lake. An ideal setting for young children and families of all ages.
Whether you want to just relax, read a book, take a walk, fish or enjoy the water, there is always something to do at the cabin. If you enjoy boating, you have easy access to the launch ramps both on Sturgeon Lake and Side Lake. You can launch a boat and explore the five connected lakes of the Sturgeon chain while enjoying water sports, fishing or even a pizza at Bimbos. If you enjoy hiking, you will enjoy the scenic trails that wind along pine-covered ridges and through stands of birch.
Whether you come for family, friends, or a class reunion, this cabin experience offers you fun, relaxation, memories & exploration. The best way to end a day is by watching the amazing sunsets the lake has to offer while sitting around a campfire telling stories and eating smores. It’s Cabin Life at its Best!
The PERFECT FAMILY VACATION for ALL Ages.
