About This Home
As of October 2025This Magician Lake ranch bungalow offers a beautiful setting at water level, with no steps leading to the shoreline with 60 ft of lake frontage. It features a permanent pier and sea wall. The kitchen evokes a nostalgic charm, yet the cottage remains clean, neat and well-maintained. The living room is spacious and connects to the dining area. Three bedrooms and a full bathroom. Additionally, there is a delightful screened-in porch facing the lake. Situated in a quiet location on Maple Island, the lake house provides access to recreational amenities such as a playground with tennis and basketball courts, swings, and shuffleboard. The single-car garage offers excellent storage space, and ample parking is available. Magician Lake is a 528 acre premier all sport lake in the resort area of Sister Lakes, Michigan. The Lake Life is fabulous, but Sister Lakes has much more to offer. Taste the freshest produce from the local produce stands. Sample beers at our new breweries. Take a wine tour. SW Michigan offers 30 different venues. Great golf courses are just around the corner. Winter enjoyment, too, with miles of snowmobile trails and ice fishing. Sister Lakes is less than two hours from Chicago and just over 30 minutes from Notre Dame.
