MLS# 6723379 - 46771 Smith Lake Road Marcell, MN 56657

First Time Offered in 60 Years, a rare northern Minnesota gem. Welcome to a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a stunning full log cabin retreat nestled on 9+- private acres and surrounded by six-thousand acres of pristine USDA forest land. Located just north of Grand Rapids in the legendary Chippewa National Forest, this one-of-a-kind property also boasts over 1500 feet of shoreline on the serene and fully recreational East Smith Lake. This is the kind of place that captures the spirit of a true Up North getaway, tall pines, unspoiled wilderness, and a quiet, gradual slope leading to a hard sand-bottomed shoreline that feels like it belongs in a storybook. Lovingly built in the 1960s and meticulously kept ever since, the log cabin is a beautifully preserved time capsule. Inside, you will find two cozy bedrooms, a charming sleeping loft, a functional kitchen, and a spacious great room featuring soaring 15-foot ceilings and a high-efficiency wood stove that invites you to gather year-round. The large tuck-under garage below offers convenient space for toys and tools. Step outside and you will discover even more, a lakeside wood-burning sauna, a quaint shower house and potter’s shed, and the detached garage is complete with a sleeping loft for overflow guests or extra storage. East Smith Lake is a hidden treasure: 152 acres, five miles of shoreline, and thirty-eight feet deep, perfect for fishing, kayaking, and water sports all summer long. Whether you are looking for a private family retreat, a peaceful base for outdoor adventures, or a legacy property to pass down through generations, this rare offering is ready to welcome its next chapter.
