About This Home

Escape the noise and reconnect with nature in this beautifully maintained off-grid log cabin located down the Garden Peninsula in the quiet community of Fairport. Set on 3 acres with 200 feet of private frontage on Lake Michigan, this property offers stunning easterly views—perfect for catching morning sunrises over the water and taking in the peaceful beauty of the "purple hour" as the sky shifts to soft shades of violet before sunset. Built in 2003, this full-log cabin offers rustic character with an open-concept layout featuring one bedroom, one full bath, and a kitchen equipped with a propane range and propane refrigerator. Lights are powered by propane, and the home includes a generator that supplies additional power when needed. A centrally located wood stove keeps the space warm and cozy during cooler months. Covered porches on both sides of the cabin offer great spaces to relax, with one overlooking the lake. The property also includes a solidly built 15x30 detached garage, ideal for storing gear or tools. Located at the end of a dead-end county road, this retreat offers peace and privacy. Please note that while the road is county maintained, it is not plowed in the winter, making this an ideal seasonal getaway for those seeking solitude. If you're looking for a well-kept, off-grid escape on the shores of Lake Michigan, this property in Fairport is worth a visit.
