About This Home

As of August 2018

Located mid way on the north shore of Little Glen Lake’s desirable Day Forest Road, this one owner family vacation cottage has been beautifully maintained and updated over the years, most recently with tiled 1.5 bathrooms and laundry area. With 100 feet of private water frontage and sandy beach on it’s .91 acre deeply wooded lot, ingress/egress is very gradual, property is high and dry with an elevation perfect for viewing the lake and surrounding area from it's three sided deck, or possibly adding a future lower level. National Lakeshore is across this less traveled road. Owner says it’s the best place to be!
