Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1999
We hope you will love this house as much as we have. It was our year round home until we had to relocate for work. Birch lake is a wonderful place to live and visit. This house is a wonderful place to entertain with a huge open living room/dinning room/kitchen with great lake views. We have enjoyed many wonderful times hosting groups of people at the lake. We have fond memories of serving snacks and meals to our son's friends sitting at the kitchen bar. We come back as often as we can.
Why the Owner Chose Birch Lake
I grew up with my parents having a cottage on Birch Lake and I spent every summer swimming, skiing, sailing, and laying in the sun. Naturally I never wanted to leave. Birch lake is a special place with crystal clear deep spring fed water. Eventually my husband and I decided to buy a year-round home here and our 2 boys enjoyed much the same idyllic summers.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love to enjoy the sunsets, entertain friends and family, lay in the sun, swim, boat, and fish off the dock, and take long walks around the lake. It was a great place to live year round because you can cross country ski and ice skate on the lake when it freezes, there is a county park with groomed cross country trails less than a mile away and a downhill ski resort 10 minutes away.
