Listing Description
Private pontoon boat tours are now being scheduled for pre-qualified buyers. Imagine leaving the mainland behind and taking a pontoon ride to your own private island cottage on the St. Joseph River. This fully furnished 2-bedroom retreat offers 100 feet of river frontage, a 60-foot private dock, an incredible screened porch overlooking the water, wood-burning fireplace, outdoor shower, rustic sauna, and multiple outbuildings for storage, workshop, and river-life essentials. Fish from the dock, cruise the river by pontoon, kayak, jet ski, or relax beneath mature shade trees while listening to the water instead of traffic. Located just minutes from Buchanan, Michigan -- named the 2020 Nicest Place in America by Reader's Digest -- this is more than a cottage. It is a completely different pace of life. Accessible only by boat. Memories included.
