Property Description

 

Rare opportunity to own one of Lake Minnetonka’s private islands offering approximately 1,841’ of unparalleled lakeshore! Throughout the last 150 years, Gale Island has evolved into a one-of-a-kind compound where generations have gathered to celebrate summers, holidays, and lifelong traditions. The original Summer House was built in 1874 and is among four cabins throughout the 2 acre setting!

The Summer House offers 3 BR/2.5 BA; the Main House 3 BR/2.5BA; the Guest House 2 BR/1BA; and the Tower offers a living area with ½ bath.
