A log cabin for weekend getaways- away from it all on your own private island in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

Peace of mind...priceless. If you have a longing to get away from it all, an outdoor spirit and the ability to finance $200,000, this is your new home. Land Leader has a property in Lake Michigamme for sale. Yes, in the lake. This 1.68 acre island, including a log cabin could be your sanctuary.The dwelling itself is not much: 3 bedrooms (including a loft) and only 1 bathroom- 944 square feet. But, you know what real estate agents say, "location, location, location."

The cabin is on one of 27 islands in Lake Michigamme, an Upper Peninsula lake that is nearly 6 miles wide, "covers 4,292 acres, has about 55 miles of shoreline, and it reaches a depth of over 70 feet," ideal for boating and fishing. Waterskiing, wakeboarding, kayaking, canoeing and sailing are all popular watersports and fisherman can angle for bluegill, trout, muskies, whitefish, and smallmouth bass.

In the forests of Michigamme (and possibly backyards) it is not unusual to see moose, deer, beavers and raccoons along with the occasional black bear sighting.  Bald eagles and ospreys have also been seen in the skies.

Take a look at this Northern Michigan island paradise that truly is the ultimate getaway.
