Why work from home when you can work from the lake? This Devil Lake cottage is the escape you’ve been praying for
Let’s be honest: if your idea of peace involves coffee, a cozy chair, and the sound of water gently lapping at the shore (instead of traffic, kids yelling, or your inbox exploding), then this might just be your version of heaven — or at least a very tempting slice of Devil Lake.
This charming 4-season cottage/home is nestled on a tranquil, nicely treed 1-acre lot, with 75 feet of direct waterfront and views so good they might just convert even the most dedicated city dweller. Whether you’re looking to escape for the weekend or ghost the suburbs for good, this place has you covered.
Inside, you’ll find 2 bedrooms plus an office — aka your new “Zoom with a view” setup, guest room, or a secret nap zone (we won’t tell). The 3-piece bath is serviced by a full septic system, which means you can flush with confidence.
The living room overlooks the lake, because of course it does. With all that natural light and peaceful atmosphere, even your houseplants will be living their best life. Step into the screened porch for bug-free bliss and let the outside world melt away. (We hear it's also great for judging loons and sipping wine at the same time.)
Warmth? Covered. This place comes equipped with a propane furnace and a cozy woodstove, so you can live your hygge dreams even in the depths of winter.
Bonus: there’s a private boat launch right next door, which means you’re mere minutes from fishing, boating, or just floating aimlessly and ignoring emails. In other words — this is remote work redefined.
So if you’re feeling the post-Easter slump and ready to trade traffic jams for paddleboards, this Devil Lake getaway might just be the divine intervention you need.
