Boasting over 1,000 feet of shoreline on scenic East Smith Lake, this remarkable offering captures everything buyers envision in a classic Up North setting.

A gentle slope leads to a beautiful hard-sand shoreline, providing outstanding access to the water and countless possibilities for enjoying the lakefront environment.

Enjoy excellent fishing, boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, and endless opportunities for outdoor adventure. Beyond the shoreline, thousands of acres of surrounding public land offer outstanding hunting, hiking, snowmobiling, and year-round exploration. Whether envisioned as a private wilderness retreat, future lakefront estate, recreational basecamp, or legacy property to be enjoyed for generations, this exceptional parcel presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Rarely does a property of this size, privacy, shoreline, and setting become available—especially one that has been held and cherished by the same family for more than six decades. A truly remarkable opportunity to own a significant piece of Minnesota's treasured Northwoods.
