About this property

Private Island - Largest Fresh Water Reservoir in Mass

Rustic.. Not fancy... It's a cabin... 2 bedroom, one with a Queen the other with twin bunkbeds... 2 couches could sleep extras. One bathroom. Very relaxing! Great place to chill on the deck with friends and family! Completely surrounded by water and Chain Pickerel, Crappie, Sunfish, White Perch, Yellow Perch, Brook Trout, and Tiger Trout are the fish you will catch if you are into fishing! Otherwise, just relax, enjoy the water activities, and movement on the lake. 24' Pontoon boat is included in the price, you just cover the gas, but it's not currently available until the water in the reservoir rises another couple of feet.
75" hi-def TV in the bedroom. Sony Sound bar for listening to your favorite music. "The Frame" TV in the living room. 2 docks... Hi speed Internet works great! Mini-splits for heating and cool, but the fans in each room are better!

What makes this property unique

Pretty awesome property...! How often do you come across a private island that is readily accessible? The island was built in the mid 1930's and the best way to describe the property is "Campy"...! You are surrounded 360* by water! Super views of the lake and often a steady parade of boaters and water skiers on the weekends. Katies Country store 5 min away and Knox Trail Inn is the local watering hole and restaurant. Bring your fishing gear, you will catch fish! Several vineyards for wine lovers nearby.
