About This Home
As of August 2024On the eastern shores of West Bearskin Lake you will find an exceptional opportunity to own a year-round retreat in one of Minnesota’s most picturesque locales.

Outside, a screened porch provides the perfect spot to savor the sights and sounds of nature, from the serene waters to the melodies of birdsong. A gently sloping trail leads down to 398 feet of coveted shoreline, where a 20' x 23' bunkhouse awaits, offering additional accommodation options just steps from the dock. This idyllic property is more than just a lakeside retreat; it's a gateway to adventure.

The surrounding area boasts lush tree coverage, blueberry and raspberry bushes, and fragrant rose bushes, creating a haven for wildlife and a peaceful retreat for residents.
