About This Home
Welcome to Bowstring Shores, where lake living meets opportunity. Cabin ten is a fully furnished, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom cabin conveniently located directly by the boat access. This could either be a year-round home, or a turnkey cabin getaway with built-in income potential. Located on highly sought-after Bowstring Lake, one of northern Minnesota’s premier fishing lakes, this newly developed common interest community offers a unique ownership experience. Enjoy your time at the lake when you want it, and take advantage of a professionally managed rental program when you are not using the property. This allows owners the ability to generate income and offset expenses while maintaining a low-maintenance, hands-off ownership experience. Bowstring Lake spans nearly 10,000 acres and is well known for its excellent fishing, including walleye, northern pike, and panfish. The property also benefits from the deepest and most accessible private landing on the lake, accommodating a wide range of watercraft, including larger boats. Surrounded by the Chippewa National Forest, the area offers year-round recreation with nearby trails, hunting land, and outdoor activities. Each cabin within Bowstring Shores offers its own unique layout and character, while sharing the benefits of lake access, functional design, and the classic Up North cabin feel buyers are looking for. Common amenities include dock access, pool, laundry facilities, and maintained shared spaces, all designed to simplify ownership and enhance the overall experience. Whether you are searching for a personal retreat, a fishing basecamp, or an investment opportunity, this property offers a rare combination of all three in one setting. Multiple units available with varying sizes, layouts, and price points.
