Located about 12 miles south of Millinocket, Maine, a small community of about 5,000, this wilderness lakeside log home is very centrally located to many of Maines desirable attractions, right in the heart of Maine's "great outdoors". Offering excellent boating, fishing, hunting, birding, skiing, snow mobiling, hiking, rock climbing, sailing, canoeing, cultural events, and shopping

This property is unlike anything else in this area. It is not your typical “seasonal camp” but rather is an exquisite “year-round” home. A 100% cedar log home situated on the shore of Cedar Lake, a crystal-clear, spring fed, semi-wilderness lake. The lot is a beautiful mix of Cedar, Hemlock, and Birch trees interspersed with Granite boulder. The waterfront swim area is all "sugar” sand with a very gradual slope off, an excellent swimming area for the smallest of children. The lake's major fishery includes trout, salmon, splake, white perch, and pickerel. Views from the waterfront to the opposite shore are of unspoiled pristine wilderness (no other camps) and Mattamiscontis mountain.

The downtown shopping area, public recreational facilities, many churches, and our area hospital are only 1/2 hour out of the woods. The University of Maine and the Maine Center for the Performing arts is only 1 1/4 hours away. It has an attached 2-car garage, an elevated porch overlooking the lake, and has a fully automatic emergency electrical generation system in the event of any power failure.

Cathedral ceiling-ed “Great Room” w/Living room facing the lake, modern kitchen with 7 foot island, bath with shower and whirlpool tub, master bedroom, guest bedroom, computer room, recreation room, laundry room, large loft, and basement workshop. Plus! An outdoor/indoor Swedish Sauna.

All stainless kitchen appliances include side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, 4-burner gas range with large oven, large 1100 watt built-in microwave, and built-in dishwasher. Large capacity front loading washer and large capacity front loading gas dryer.

Only 1 1/2 hours northwest of Bangor and Bangor International airport, 1/2 hour south of Baxter State Park and Mount Katahdin (terminus of the Appalachion Trail), 1 1/4 hours east of famous Moosehead Lake (40 miles long and offering great fishing and sailing), and 2 1/2 hours west of Arcadia National Park and Mount Desert Island on the ocean. The mountains, lakes, and Atlantic ocean are all just a "hop, skip, and a jump" away.

Elementary, junior high, and high schools, the downtown shopping area, public recreational facilities, many churches, and our area hospital are only 1/2 hour out of the woods. The University of Maine and the Maine Center for the Performing arts is only 1 1/4 hours away. It is an ideal home in which to retire to, as so many services and recreational opportunities abound. Millinocket is a quiet and crime free small community!

This log home sits on a wilderness lot with water frontage on Cedar Lake. The lot is a beautiful mix of Cedar, Hemlock, Ash, Fir, Maple, and Birch trees interspersed with Granite boulder. The water front is "sugar sand" with a very gradual dropoff, an excellent swimming area for the smallest of grandchildren. The lake's major fishery includes trout, salmon, splake, and white perch.

A few words about the Greater Bangor area which lies about an hour and a half south of Millinocket. Bangor once again has received high marks from a national guide to the best places to live.

• The Bangor area ranked No.2 in the nation among cities with populations of 100,000 and under in the recently released 2004 edition of "Cities Ranked & Rated".
• Bangor has made regular appearances in similar guides since at least 1995, when it was named one of the top 10 municipalities in the nation by "World Trade" magazine.
• In 1997 and 1999, the Bangor metro area ranked No.1 among those of comparable size.
• Bangor was rated the 19th most family-friendly city in the nation in a parents' survey in the April 1997 issue of "Reader's Digest" in a story titled "The Best Places to Raise a Family."
• In October 2002, Bangor was named one of a dozen "pockets of prosperity" by "Business Week" because of its relatively low unemployment and ability to create jobs the previous year.
