Deer River MN 56636

A beloved heritage cabin with room for family, friends, and long dinners overlooking one of the cleanest lakes in Minnesota. This is a rare chance to own an intact piece of the old Northwoods, with the vanishingly rare combination of original, 100-year-old features combined with fully modern amenities including a recent roof, chef’s kitchen, four-season insulation, modern high efficiency heating, and up-to-date septic. There is plenty of room for loved ones: six ensuite bedrooms in the main and guest houses, including a primary suite with walk-in closet and soaking tub, plus a bunk room in the walk-out basement. The vast, sunny kitchen/dining room has two dishwashers, two ovens, a 36” gas cooktop, and the best view in Minnesota. On the lakeshore you will find a deck, a sauna, a boathouse, and an outdoor hot-water shower. The current owners have adored this house for 30 years; it’s a magical place to spend time with the family, and a legacy property to pass on to the next generation.
