Overview
The dam is an earthen and rock structure spanning more than 1,400 feet and rising nearly 45 feet high. The remarks describe the original purpose as supporting nearby Benson Mines’ iron ore operations, and note that the structure is in good condition. The lake is bordered by approximately 29,000 feet of shoreline, with a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees along the water.
For buyers seeking a large-format recreation and resource property, this site offers both water-based activities and managed woodland. The combination of lake access, existing shoreline cabins, and a sizable timber resource may fit owners looking for a private Adirondack compound with natural amenities and an on-site operational base for forestry and related uses.
