Large parcels of Lake Superior property are not easy to come by these days. Here’s one from the old days, back when the fisherman picked their spots. 4 plus acres, 318 feet of frontage. Not just any frontage, a really beautiful beach! Endless colorful cobbles churn up daily. Pebbles roll around. Sand filters in and stays for days or weeks, until a storm comes, rearranging the whole art piece. Superior doing her thing. It’s secluded here, downhill and distant from the highway. Peaceful below mature spruce. It first was a homestead, and little bits of yesteryear turn up here and there: a horseshoe, old bottle. There’s a story in this land. The old fish house is now a charming cabin, front row seat to all the Gitche Gumee action! The old home has seen better days - its future is up to you and your vision for the property. There are aspens adding color in fall and lovely quaking sounds in the breezy, cool, pure air. Schroeder is a few miles down the road: grab a snack at the bakery, then explore the historical society’s museum. Head down to Sugarloaf Cove Interpretive Center for hiking and learning. Superior Hiking Trail is close, Snowmobile Trails, too. Return and get a fire going. The smoke curls out drifting above the beach to the west where a dramatic point frames the setting. To the east, a couple rock islands mesmerize in all the ways they are caressed, massaged and scoured by the Big Lake. Between the rock islands and point is this place: an arc of beach awaiting the next steward, the next stories, infusing the conversation between Humans, Shining Big Sea Water, Sky and Trees.
