About This Home

As of July 2021

Sale subject to tenants rights. Rare opportunity to own a piece of Oakland County History! The Squirrels Nest Lodge sits atop a picturesque bluff overlooking Walters Lake. A private road offers access to the lake below as do the stairs built into the side of your own private hill top. The log home was first built in 1929 using locally sourced timbers from Metamora. The carriage house was originally used for horses and has since been renovated into a guest house with two separate living quarters and a two car garage. The main house is over 3200 sf and boasts a 17 foot stone fireplace, large loft area bedrooms, almost 1000 sf deck over looking the lake, and many, many custom log home features. This all sports lake front offers space for your own dock and boat mooring option with 38 feet of frontage. With over 6000 sf of inside space and 3/4 of an acre this unique property will provide a gathering place for a large family for years to come.
