Buying an Island

An island or boat-access place works differently from a cabin on the road. Getting there, getting supplies in and getting through the seasons all take planning. Ask how the seller gets in, where they park on the mainland and how supplies arrive. We help you work through every part of it.

What to Check on Island Property

Ask about these before you write an offer.

Boat and Ice Access

At freeze-up and ice-out there are weeks when neither a boat nor the ice works well.

Mainland Landing

Ask where the owner parks, launches the boat and keeps a vehicle on the mainland.

Winter Showings

Winter visits depend on safe ice, so photos and video come first and the visit later.

Water, Septic, Power

Ask about the water source, how septic works on rock and how the place gets its power.

Insurance Quotes

Island cabins can be harder to insure, so get a quote before you make an offer on one.

Freight and Building

Lumber, appliances and fuel all come in by barge, by boat or over the ice in winter.

Recently Sold Island Property
