Offered for sale for the very first time, this Upper Hay Lake property is the kind of Minnesota lake cabin that doesn’t come along often. Hand built in 1969 as a family cabin and enjoyed by the same family for generations, it has a history you simply can’t recreate. While there are still a few cosmetic finishing touches for the next owner to make their own, so many of the expensive updates are already complete, including a new furnace and central air in 2025, metal roof in 2021, updated 200-amp electrical panel in 2021, new exterior siding and shakes, new concrete walkway and patio, and new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the main level. Inside, huge panoramic Andersen windows and an updated sliding glass door bring the lake views front and center. The kitchen offers generous counter space, custom epoxy countertops and a deep farmhouse-style sink, while the updated bathroom and wood-burning fireplace add to the comfortable cabin feel. Outside, the .70-acre lot is filled with towering pines that give you the Up North setting everyone is looking for, along with a roomy garage and an adorable custom waterside storage shed with electricity—perfect for lake toys, fishing gear and all the extras. Upper Hay Lake is approximately 596 acres with depths reaching about 42 feet and offers great opportunities for boating, swimming and fishing for walleye, northern pike, bass, crappie and panfish. The Pequot Lakes location also puts you close to Nisswa, Breezy Point, Crosslake and the Whitefish Chain of Lakes, with golf, restaurants, trails, shopping and year-round recreation all nearby. This is more than a lake place—it is a longtime family cabin ready for its next chapter.
