Some lake homes make you choose between a real getaway and a manageable drive. This one doesn't. Set on a scenic bluff overlooking Cross Lake and the Snake River, this 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom retreat is about an hour from downtown Minneapolis, close enough for a Friday after work escape, far enough to actually feel like you left the city. Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and an open concept layout that fills the home with natural light and frames the water from nearly every room. The kitchen flows into the living and dining areas, making it easy to cook, entertain, and keep an eye on the lake all at once. The primary suite offers a private retreat of its own, with water views to wake up to. Four additional bedrooms give family and friends plenty of room to spread out for a weekend or settle in for the whole summer. Outside, you'll find direct access to the shoreline plus a dock and boat lift, ready for swimming, fishing, or an evening cruise. And the lake itself is only the start. With Cross Lake and Pokegama Lake to the west, plus the St. Croix River and the Upper and Lower Snake River nearby, this is a true all season recreation area, with more than 50 miles of shoreline and 3,000 acres of navigable water connecting it all. Anglers, boaters, and anyone who just wants to relax with a paddle in hand will find plenty of room to roam, in every season. An hour north, and a world away!
