PATCH OF HEAVEN!...This gorgeous lakefront cottage is nestled inside a gated recreational community and truly is "A Patch of Heaven." Come enjoy our sandy swimming beach; our dock for diving, swimming, boating, or fishing; our over-sized deck for entertaining or lounging -- the best of lake waterfront vacationing! The cottage is about 50 feet from the water!
GREAT FOR ACTIVITIES...OR REST!...If it is peace and quiet you are after, you can snuggle into this cozy cove and let the world disappear. But if excitement is the order of the day, then you get to choose from among the many activities and amenities waiting for you at or near Lake of the Woods!
THE VIEW!...Oh, the view! The cottage looks southeast out over the lake - towards the soft summer breezes that blow gently off the water. Soothing and refreshing all day. And as the day's activities start to quiet, the setting sun frames the lake house with amazing splashes of color. As night peacefully arrives, a giant yellow-orange moon rises from behind the trees across the lake, bouncing iridescent beams atop the water right to your shore! Day or night, the view is captivating and refreshing!
THE PROPERTY...The house family room has a cathedral ceiling and double sofa-bed. The dining room, seats eight comfortably. There is a private sandy beach for kids and with a gradual slope into the water. The bottom is sandy in shallow water. The dock has a relaxation bench and boat tie-ups. Canoe and rowboat are available for exploring or fishing. Numerous floats, tubes, noodles and sandbox toys. The grass backyard is perfect for volleyball, badminton, croquet, etc. The gravel drive has plenty of parking.

A smaller, 35-acre fishing lake (Keaton's Run Lake) is also in the community and is also available for swimming, fishing, and electric-powered boating.
