Map & Owner's Profile
'2 Pines Hide Away' on Shirt Lake, Deerwood, Minnesota
Year Purchased: 1997
Why the Owner Chose Deerwood
We decided on this area of Minnesota after traveling throughout the entire state. This area was choosen for the hard-woods of Sugar-Maple, Oaks, and Birch; along with the dense forest of pine trees. We see several eagles, white-tail deer daily, amoung several other animals.
It's terrain is of rolling hills, dense rich forest areas, and many many lakes withing walking distants of our own 'Shirt Lake' within miles of the famous Bay Lake, Farm Island, and Mille Lacs Lake recreation areas. We are still close to shopping, golfing, the 'Mail of America', and the sea-port of Duluth on Lake Superior (one of the Great Lakes) only two hours away.
Owner's Map of Deerwood
Enjoy a day of solitude, beautiful scenery, and some of the finest fishing Minnesota has to offer. Our lake is a trophy Large Mouth Bass Lake and an excellent crappie and sunfish lake!
Go by boat or walk to the sandy beach, by boat just across the bay to an island to swim and enjoy! I am enjoying the day with my two grandchildren, & daugther-inlaw out on the water during a gorgeous day!
