Set on 1.5 private acres with an impressive 226 feet of sandy shoreline in a quiet bay, the property offers stunning lake views, privacy, and space to truly enjoy the Northwoods lifestyle. The 1,616 square foot cabin, built in 1991, features three bedrooms plus an office, all conveniently located on one level with slab-on-grade construction for easy maintenance and comfortable year-round living. Whether you're hosting weekend guests or settling in for an extended stay, the layout is designed for relaxation and gathering. A dock is included, making it easy to step right into lake life from day one. Outbuildings and amenities truly set this property apart. A 24x24 detached garage built in 2001 (cement, electric, opener) and a 30x40 garage built in 2010—complete with 8’ and 16’ overhead doors, cement floors, electricity, and openers—provide abundant storage for boats, pontoons, ATVs, snowmobiles, and all your recreational gear. A traditional wood-burning sauna offers the perfect way to unwind after a day outdoors, and a fish cleaning house right at the water’s edge makes preparing the day’s catch simple and convenient. Sand Lake spans over 3,500 acres and is stocked yearly with walleye by the DNR, offering outstanding fishing and ENDLESS water recreation. By boat, you can access the Bowstring River, Little Sand Lake, Birdseye Lake, and the Rice River, opening the door to thousands of additional acres of connected waterways to explore. Adventure continues beyond the water, with easy access to thousands of miles of trails for snowmobiling in the winter and ATV riding year-round. From peaceful mornings on the dock and sunset cruises across the bay to trophy fishing and trail riding in every season, this fully equipped lake property truly has everything you need to enjoy Minnesota’s outdoors all year long.
