About This Home

As of October 2023

Don't wait for this great opportunity to own a lakefront cottage on the shores of beautiful Lake George.

Awaiting your personal touch, the interior of the cottage is close to completion. Just finish this as is or add more sleeping area in the wide open newly built 24x24 addition in 2007! With well water and a septic system in place, you have the foundations of modern comfort in a rustic retreat. Even electricity is no concern, as a reliable generator ensures your power needs are met easily.

Embrace the Maine camp experience with a two-bedroom, one-bath layout, perfectly suited for your escapes to nature. Outside, a paved driveway offers convenience, leading the way to your haven. Wander down the stairs that lead you to the water's edge, where the enchantment of the lake awaits your exploration.

This three season cabin has been meticulously cared for and maintained. This and the surrounding cabins share the use of a drilled well. The dock is negotiable, the boat is for sale also!

This will go fast! Schedule your showing today!
