About This Home

Welcome to your turnkey lakefront getaway on Little Long Lake, a beautiful 160-acre all-sports lake uniquely split between Michigan and Indiana. Nestled in southern Hillsdale County, this fully furnished cottage offers the perfect blend of elevated views, modern updates, and classic lake charm. Perched on a hill overlooking the water, the property features approximately 25 feet of lake frontage, complete with an aluminum dock-ideal for boating, swimming, and enjoying everything this all-sports lake has to offer. A spacious deck provides the perfect vantage point for morning coffee or evening sunsets. Inside, the cottage is bright and inviting, with large interior windows that capture scenic lake views and fill the home with natural light. The open living space is designed for relaxation and comes fully furnished, making this a true turnkey opportunity. The walk-out basement leads to a cozy three-season porch, extending your living space and offering a comfortable place to unwind in any season. Recent updates include a new HVAC system (fall 2025), along with newer windows, flooring, and roof-providing peace of mind for years to come. For additional storage or workspace, a 36x48 pole barn with a concrete floor (built in 2019) is also available. Located on over an acre in nearby Camden, this bonus property offers excellent flexibility for boats, equipment, or hobbies. Contact the listing agent for further details. Whether you're seeking a weekend escape, full-time retreat, or investment property, this unique lakefront offering delivers the very best of Michigan waterfront living.
