Property Description
(265/DW) This is your chance to own a historic lake cabin in Wisconsin’s beautiful Northwoods. Once the main lodge of a turn-of-the-20th-century fishing camp, this rustic three-season stilt cabin offers open-concept living, excellent fishing, and an original fireplace full of character. Situated on a 3+/- acre parcel on Lake Galilee with 140+/- feet of sandy/gravel frontage. The property includes all appliances, boats, a pedal boat, boathouse, and hunting land across the street. Screened porch. Well with pump. There is no septic system. Surrounded by abundant wildlife—deer, bald eagles, ducks, bears, foxes, and more—this property is a nature lover’s dream. Enjoy magical sunsets and sweeping views of the ancient Penokee Mountain Range, once known as the “Alps of Wisconsin.†The cabin borders the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest and is just a short drive from Copper Falls State Park. Ideally located within about an hour of Minocqua, Bayfield, Hurley/Ironwood, Ashland, and Cable, this cabin offers the perfect Northwoods escape. $189,000.
