After air our bodies require water. It's essential. And nothing can enrich your life--physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually--like living next to the Greatest of the Great Lakes. Even better, is living in a custom log home with 200 feet of frontage on Superior's sandy shore. You'll find this 3 bedroom/2 bath log lodge on Squaw Beach in Big Bay, half hour north of Marquette in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Every window has a view of the water. From the north-facing floor to ceiling prow windows and the wall of glass in the kitchen/dining, to the loft window overlooking the channel at the marina just behind this home, you'll feel circled by this Sweetwater Sea. The original cabin, built in 1955, was added to in 1998. Since then everything has been done, from new roof & furnace to septic & windows. Logs have been chinked, kitchen, bath & laundry updated, floors have been heated and the game room stocked with fun toys. The only thing you need to bring is your toothbrush and a camera. Catch sunrise from the master bedroom or private deck and watch the light play on the waves until you settle at sunset with a beach fire and await the northern lights. Nothing here to spoil your view. Invite the gang, the kitchen has workspace for a crowd and the overflow can sleep in the bunkhouse. Curl up in the loft with a good book or spy a storm brewing out on the lake, with so much to do year round you'll never be bored at this one-of-a-kind property. Remember there are 5 Great Lakes, but only one called Superior.

Log Home on 60 waterfront acres in Marquette County's north country. Go off the grid and on to amazing. A Koski Log Home is known for the huge hand peeled, air dried logs and masterfully engineered roofing system with an R factor of over 50 preventing heat loss and withstanding snow loads. This finely crafted log home is one of the finest you will find on the market. The logs are "9 round" meaning there are 9 logs to the wall. The huge log interior beams span the length of the cabin over which is the soaring vaulted ceiling. There is a log staircase leading to the upstairs loft used now as a bedroom but could also double as an office or studio. The main floor features a bedroom, bath, laundry area, kitchen, dining and living room in an open area concept. The basement is unfinished but serves as excellent storage and utility area. This is a walkout so is very useful for many applications including additional living space. While the Log Home is the centerpiece feature of this property the land is awesome. Mostly high, rolling hills with mixed northern hardwood stands including black cherry and interspersed with pine there are old growth oaks and white pine on the property. The cabin is on ridge with the trout stream flowing below within sight of the wrap around, partially covered deck where you can literally watch your friends and family catch native brook trout. Along with the forest, the grounds feature a level yard with a thriving orchard of apple, pear and cherry. The fenced in garden is growing too. There is also a generator shed, a small storage shed and two large container sheds that can hold a small truck, tractor and ATVs, very handy. This entire setting is very pleasing, useful and well, fruitful. The property would make a luxury seasonal cabin for hunting, fishing or just relaxing. It would also be an awesome year round off the grid home wth acreage that you can garden, pick fruit and berries, fish, cut firewood, hunt and live comfortably i
The greatest of the great lakes, SUPERIOR! Your own 1,525 feet of sugar sand beach frontage and 197 acres of peace, privacy, and total tranquility! The wildlife you'll see on this property is diverse. From the private ponds behind the house to the big lake in front of the house. Yes, this wonderful property also has a very nicely appointed 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with 2 car attached garage and an additional two car detached garage with large finished studio above. This space would make a great art studio or as the current owners use it, a dance studio! Either way the views for miles are magnificent. Inside the main house the open concept was used to bring the kitchen, dining, and living rooms together. The finest quality bird's eye maple was used in the cabinetry and of course granite counter tops are installed. There are also two bedrooms on the main floor one of which is currently being used as an office/family room with built in shelving and a private back deck over looking the south side of the property. The master bedroom and bathroom are on the second floor with large windows to view the south side of the property and the current owners say some of the most beautiful meteor showers have been seen from this room.

There are decks surrounding the entire house so you can enjoy the ever changing landscape from any location. One of the other features of this house is the Kohler 7500 automatic back up generator, although not used very often it is nice to know that you will always have uninterrupted power. Although you're on 197 acres of property and located in a very secluded area, the town of Big Bay is only a mile and a half down the road for dining and small shopping items. There is also the Big Bay marina around the corner to drop your boat. This property offers so much you really need to see it in person. Contact your agent today and schedule your showing!
