About this home
Rare Ruth Lake cabin | Architect-Designed Legacy Property | Exceptional Sunsets. Offered for the first time since it was built, this exceptional cabin on beautiful Ruth Lake in Emily, Minnesota, presents a rare opportunity to own a truly special Up North retreat. Designed and built by a well-known Twin Cities architect, the property blends timeless design, natural materials, and a deep connection
to its stunning lakeside setting. Situated on approximately 1.25 acres with over 150 feet of west-facing shoreline, the cabin enjoys breathtaking
sunset views across one of Minnesota's premier lakes. Ruth Lake is renowned for its crystal-clear water, featuring an impressive 21-foot water clarity and an A rating for water quality, making it ideal for swimming, boating, fishing, and family recreation.
The thoughtfully designed cabin comfortably accommodates family and guests with a lofted upper level featuring one bedroom and two bunk areas, providing sleeping space for up to six. A recently added standalone family room
expands the living area and includes two fold-out sofas, allowing accommodations for an additional four guests. Inside, two natural wood-burning fireplaces create the warm and inviting atmosphere that defines the Northwoods experience. Outside, a lakeside firepit provides the perfect gathering place for evening conversations, s'mores, and unforgettable sunsets over the water.
The spacious lot offers privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors, while a detached garage near the back of the property provides ample storage for your boat, recreational vehicles, and all the equipment that makes lake life
so enjoyable. Whether you're seeking a family legacy property, a peaceful weekend escape, or a one-of-a-kind architect-designed lake home, this Ruth Lake cabin offers an extraordinary opportunity to create memories for generations to come....
