A perfect multi-family playground, perched in a pristine nook of nature.
Welcome to
A Hawkes' Nest where we seldom see hawks. What you WILL see:
OUTDOORS
An ideal 2500 sq ft family cottage in a three-lake system - a beautiful property for all ages. Nestled in a tranquil bay on 190 feet of south facing shoreline,
A Hawkes' Nest provides all-day sun for tons of outdoor family activities: easy shallow lakeshore entry for young ones and elders, a dock with deeper water for crystal clear swimming, kayaks (single and tandem), paddleboat, numerous deck lounging options, a flat sports friendly lawn (badminton, soccer, baseball), horseshoes, basketball court, trampoline, yoga, biking, walking, marshmallow roasting, a treehouse lookout over the bay and more. Or... after a fun-filled day... relaxing on the dock, stargazing and moonlight canoodling are strongly encouraged.
