New Island Cottage on Buck Lake, Seven Price Updates, and Four Sold
A three-bedroom cottage on Porcupine Island hits the market this week, while sharper prices arrive on Desert Lake, Buck Lake, Whitefish Lake, Westport Pond, and beyond, as well as four properties find their new owners.
Week 34 is one of the busiest of the season. A cottage on Porcupine Island on Buck Lake joins the market with 335 ft of shoreline and an included mainland boat slip. Seven listings come in with updated prices across Desert Lake, Buck Lake, Whitefish Lake, Crosby Lake, Westport Pond, Kingston, Perth, and Brighton. And four properties celebrate sold, including two beloved Westport homes and a Sharbot Lake waterfront that barely lasted a month.
