Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 1999

I work in the field of conflict resolution, consulting with governments, private companies and NGOs. I enjoy vacation time with my family at our secluded lake retreat and look forward to having others share this unique experience.

Why the Owner Chose Detroit Lakes

We bought this property because it is increasingly rare to find such a secluded lakefront site with great fishing, boating, swimming, bird watching and wildlife. There are wonderful walking and biking paths nearby, as well as easy access to a great national wildlife refuge and a jewel of a state park (Itasca -- headwaters of the Mississippi River).

The Unique Benefits of this House

It is hard to overstate the joy of playing tennis on your own private court surrounded by forest and seeing a bald eagle swoop along the trees near the court! The fishing is great as well -- walleyes, northerns, bass, rock bass, crappies, sunfish, and others. We never tire of the lake view and the bird watching. At night, we enjoy soaking in the Jacuzzi bath and reading a good book while the loons call to each other.
