Owning the island includes parking spaces for 3 vehicles on the lot with rust colored cabin adjacent to the access. Put your boat in at the access, load your supplies, park your trailer and car and them head to your island…it is that easy.

Big McGraw Lake is 135 acres of unpolluted northwestern Wisconsin water. Big McGraw has excellent pan fish, crappie, bass (5 pounders), and northern. The lake is great for water skiing and swimming. The lake has a Class “A” Trout Stream entering on the north and exiting on the south it is names “Hay Creek”. This is neat because there is not a road that makes a "loop" around the lake, so traffic is minimal. This is a very private lake and it is surrounded by thousands of acres of public land. Hear that hunters, snow shoe enthusiasts, X country skiers, ATV riders and snowmobilers…this is paradise.

On the north end of McGraw Lake, there is a 7.24 acre island. The south 5.24 acres of this island is for sale; yes - it is surveyed. It also meets all building requirements. You can build a cabin, shed or home here! The small northern portion of the island is owned by some mainland owners on the north end of the lake, in order to "protect" their natural view. That portion is not buildable, adding to the true privacy of the 5.24 acres for sale.

The island has perfect southern exposure and a view of the length of Big McGraw Lake. The island has a nice hill in the middle, is totally wooded with birch, aspen, oak, red and white pines. It is gorgeous; there is no other way to put it. Big McGraw Lake is a "tinted" water lake, not polluted. The bottom in front of the island is hard sand. There is over 1,600 feet of private, pretty frontage on this island parcel. We have obtained the soil test for septic and we have identified the set back line for building and applied for a building permit. Yes this can be your dream island camp, cabin or home site hide away. Perhaps you just want a "natural" investment. We camp it each year, we have a nice camp site under huge trees, a hard sand bottom beach, and an aluminum doc.

What about the huge investment potential. Ten years from now, where will you find and what would you have to pay for a lake cabin and lot, plus 5 acres of virgin island, all under two and half hours from the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, and only an hour South of Duluth! That’s right; Lake Superior is only about 1 hour north.

Just across the road from the public access, there are 1000s and 1000s of acres of county land open to hunting and exploring. There is over 60,000 acres in a 6 mile radius.
