Escape to the Northwoods with this rare 6-acre lakefront property on the serene passage of Lake Vermilion in Cook, Minnesota. This secluded island lot offers stunning views, easy shoreline access, and direct boat access to both the east and west sides of one of Northern Minnesota’s most iconic lakes. Whether you’re an angler, camper, or cabin dreamer, this property is a perfect match.
The land is located on Hinsdale Island and backs up to hundreds of acres of state land, giving you a private backyard of untamed wilderness—ideal for hiking, exploring, or simply soaking in the peace and quiet. The property has already been surveyed, and we’ve completed the septic evaluations with two potential build sites for a 3-bedroom system. Electricity is available at the lot line, and the land features a gentle slope to the water, beautiful rock outcroppings, and mature pine trees throughout.
We’ve priced this affordably so you can use it recreationally for now—camping, fishing, or even placing a yurt or tiny home—while leaving the option to build your dream lake cabin down the road. Water in the area via well or lake filtration, and we’re happy to connect you with local contractors for septic, wells, and barge service to help make developments and improvements smooth and simple.
This lot offers excellent fishing right off your future dock. Plus, we own the adjacent 6-acre parcel—perfect for expanding your space to 12 acres or inviting friends or family to join you in creating your own private retreat.
