What to know
Janet on the lakes
Some properties on Games Lake are older seasonal cabins on small lots, and others are year-round homes with full basements and heated garages. Insurance, taxes, and financing differ between the two, so it pays to know which you are buying.
The buying a lake home guide covers docks, septic, shoreland rules and financing in more detail.
We were in the market for a cabin and met Janet, with our first visit to a cabin we were interested in. Janet worked tirelessly to help us find a place that met our requirements. She was extremely knowledgeable of lakes, homes and their backgrounds. I would recommend Janet for any real estate needs.
