MAISON DE LAC INCROYABLE à 1 heure des villes, Goose Lake, "Là où commence le Nord."

WE ARE SO EXCITED ABOUT OUR SECOND SEASON OF RENTING OUR HOUSE!

The first year was a great success! Our guests were so gracious and we learned so much. We are hopeful that leads to an even better second season for our rental property.

We have a few changes we are excited about for this upcoming season. We have built a very large three season porch overlooking the lake. No more bugs! This spring we are adding a cement patio that will overlook the lake and have a nice sitting area for those who want the outside experience. Both areas will have dining space. Pictures are in on the new sun room and we will add when done with patio.

We have also remodeled both of our bathrooms on the main floor.

You are going to love everything about this place. From morning coffee out on the porch or down on the patio, both overlooking the lake. Or maybe you would prefer to have your morning coffee down on the 50+ foot long dock, with a bench seat on the end of it. It is such an easy walk to the dock and can almost guarantee you will walk right under an eagle in the trees or flying above you. You will have a couple of kayak's or a couple of paddle boards at your disposal to take out onto the beautiful Goose Lake. There is also a paddle boat that will seat four.

Goose lake is a chain of four lakes, Upper Goose, Lower Goose, Mandall Lake and Robour Lake. Over 700 acres of shoreline. Your house will be located on Upper Goose. The public boat ramp for the lake is literally 1000 feet down the road from your drive way if you want to bring your own boat and tie up to the long dock. The two parts of Goose Lake is passable under a small bridge. Mandall and Robour are connected by channels.

All four lakes are known for pan fish, LM Bass and northern. Lower Goose will provide the walleye fisherman with plenty of opportunities. Fishing is good right off the dock for bass, northern and pan fish. Don't have a pole, there will be a few down in the lower level entry of the house for you to use. Grab some crawlers at the bait shop just off the Harris exit on your way to the house. Or you can run up to the Rush Corner Store, a five minute trip.

The lakes are big enough to enjoy yet small enough to not have heavy traffic of any kind.

When the sunset hits at dusk it is the most gorgeous thing you will ever see. You will find yourself paralyzed as you look at it. Wondering just how bright it can get.

The yard is perfect for yard games. We have plenty of yard in the front of the house as well as the back, between the house and the lake. We have a portable fire pit for you to have your s'mores wherever you would like. We also have a gas fire pit for the patio.

The biggest problem will be getting out of the house, it is so warm and cozy you will have a hard time leaving it. It is three levels, you will walk in to the middle level. It will hold the master bed and bath, the second bedroom (bunk room) and another bathroom. It will also have a living area, a kitchen that may make you forget you are at the lake until you look up and see the lake out the two huge windows in the dining area. The space is very open and easy for all to enjoy.

The upper level has two more bedrooms and a full bathroom. One bedroom has a queen bed and the other has a full bed. There is a living area up stairs as well that has a sleeper sofa. There is small table up stairs looking out over the lake. It's a great place to do some crafting or putting together a puzzle.

The lower level has a spiral staircase. These types of staircases are not for everyone. They are safe, but different and make some people uncomfortable. We have tried to keep that in mind and made the downstairs living area a "kid area." With a couch and tv, and a place to play games. There is a closet full of board games in the bunk room. There is an entry to the lower level from the back yard as well.

In the winter when you come up to ice fish (straight out from the house is the best place on the lake in the winter) . Or maybe you go hang out in the sauna as your winter activity. It is hooked up and ready to go year round.

If you HAVE to work for part of your stay, there are two designated work areas each with its own desk. One is in the master bedroom, far away from house traffic. More than quiet enough for that zoom meeting you have to do. There is also a standing desk upstairs if needed for a work space. Internet is great and fast.

All four TVs will have access to your internet streaming choice as they all have access to wifi. The TVs do not have cable/satellite access of any kind.

The outside area on the side of the house that is opposite of the lake is very spacious. There are many parking spots and good turn around area if you are pulling. Many games have been played up on that side of the house as well because of its great shade and flat area.

The house is located an easy 15 minute drive of off interstate 35. You will be an hour to the cities and 90 minutes to Duluth.

The area is loaded with things to do. You are ten minutes from the cities of Cambridge and North Branch. All kinds of stores, coffee shop, and restaurants. Many of trips to Target have been made from this house. :)

There are three bar/resort bars within ten minutes of the house. Food is great at all three places.

Sunrise Prairie Trail is about a 15 minute drive from the house. This is an asphalt bike and hike trail.

Running Aces casino, hotel and race track is 20 minutes away to the South and Grand Casino is 30 minutes to the North. Both located just off of I35.

ATV/snowmobile trails are 40 minutes away.

There are several golf courses within an hour drive of the house in all directions. Including Bullrush Golf Club, only 5 minutes away in Rush City. Many of those courses also have simulators for the cold months.

The house is close to several wedding venues in the Rush City, Cambridge, North Branch and Stanchfield areas. The house is also just an hour drive to Hudson, WI.

Rush City, a 5 minute drive, has a very good Mexican restaurant and it may also have the best baked goods you have ever tasted at the Rush City Bakery. Get there early, things go quickly.

The bedrooms:
The master is a huge room, has a king bed with adjustable bed base. There is an office area in the bedroom and a rocking chair as well.

The master bathroom is a full bath. It is a walk in shower no tub.

The second bedroom is the "bunk room" has a bunk bed, twin over full, and a trundle bed. The bathroom downstairs is also full bath, with tub/shower combo.

The other two bedrooms are upstairs. Bedroom 3 is a queen bed and bedroom 4 is a full size bed. The bathroom upstairs is a full bath as well with a shower/tub combo.

The living area upstairs has a sectional that turns into a double bed with a lift up section.

The laundry area was just moved from the basement, upstairs to master bed level. It is a washer/dryer all in one.

There are TVs in the living area on the top floor, the living area on the main floor and down in the "kids area" in the basement. There is also one in the master bedroom.

The kitchen is loaded. The usual of course, plenty of dishes, cups, silverware and supplies. In addition you will find an opal nugget ice machine, Ninja air fryer, and Ninja double brew and single cup coffer maker compatible with Keurig pods. A nice sized island to use in any way you see fit. There is also a beverage fridge to help with the overflow.

The neighborhood is on a dead end road, with the boat ramp towards the end of the road. The house sits in a private setting, fence and trees as barriers between both neighbors. Both side have great neighbors who keep to themselves and will expect the exact the same from you. If you are looking for a party house, please keep looking.

Upper Goose, the lake the house sits on, is a shallow lake. Most of the lake, away from the shoreline, will be 5 to 7 feet. From the shore line to about 100 feet or so will be 1 to 3 feet. That is why the docks on on upper Goose Lake tend to be pretty long, allowing it to get out to a little deeper water.

Swimming on the shoreline becomes challenging. It tends to get weedy as summer moves along. Most swimming is done out away from docks on this lake.

Pets are welcome with prior approval as well as a $150 pet fee, dogs only. Limit of two.

A damage deposit of $500 will be required as well as a $150 cleaning fee for all bookings.
