A genuine year-round retreat on Long Lake

This isn't a seasonal cabin — it's a fully updated, move-in-ready home, level lot to the lake. The living room looks out over county-owned land offering endless, unobstructed views. It's quiet here — genuinely quiet. At night you see every star, and on the right evenings, the northern lights. Have your morning coffee in the screened porch surrounded by forest, and watch sunsets from the dock every single evening. Long Lake is a full recreation lake — boat, ski, fish. 45 minutes from the Twin Cities. Close enough for the weekend. Tempting enough that you'll stay all week.

What makes this place special

🌅

West-Facing Sunsets

Nightly sunset views directly over the lake. Watch them from the screened porch, the dock, or the fire pit — every evening is a show.

🌲

Borders County Land

Adjacent to county-owned land — no development, no neighbors to the north. Endless views from the living room across protected forest and water.

🏠

Vaulted Screened Porch

Oversized screened porch, like having a second living room. An open canvas for your summer patio styling.

🌊

Level Yard to Water

Flat, easy walk to the lake edge and dock. No steep banks. Fire pit right at the water. Great for hosting, BBQs and yard games.

🦅

Wildlife, Stars & Silence

Creek feeds the lake to the north — no neighbors, just forest, loons, herons, and deer. At night, clear skies bring every star and occasional northern lights.

🛏

Rooms With Views

Tongue-and-groove wood living room with wraparound lake and forest expanse. Main bedroom overlooks the lake directly — wake up to water every morning.

🏗

Structural Updates Done

New joists, flooring, siding, furnace, well pump, spray foam insulation, sump — the expensive work is finished. Move in, not fix up.

💰

Airbnb/Investment Potential

Comparable lake rentals 45 min from Minneapolis pull $200–$350/night in summer. Strong short-term rental income potential if desired.

📅

Fully Year-Round

Spray foam insulation, new high-efficiency furnace, and updated mechanicals mean this property handles Minnesota winters with no compromise.

Panoramic view of Long Lake at sunset

Long Lake at golden hour

Every evening from your own yard. The dock is in, the chair is out, and the lake is yours.

Turnkey. Real work done.

Unlike most lake properties in this price range, this one has had serious structural and mechanical work completed — not just paint and staging. Every major system has been addressed.

Exterior from lakeside

From the water's edge

Level yard, screened porch addition, shed — everything you need for lake life is already here.

Close to everything. Feels like nowhere.

28768 Lakewood Dr NW, Isanti MN 55040 — on Long Lake, one of Isanti County's premier recreation lakes. Year-round paved road access, near the creek corridor for wildlife, and tucked far enough north that you truly feel away from it all.
