Find Perham, MN Lakefront Homes for Sale
Otter Tail County has more lakes than any county in the state and Perham sits among the eastern group of them. Little Pine and Big Pine are right at the town, with Rush Lake, Big McDonald and Dead Lake a short drive out. The shoreline here has a longer cabin tradition than the Fargo side of the region, so a good share of what appears is original building on land that has been in the same hands for decades. Inventory is small and it turns over quickly. Flom Property Group watches it closely.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Which lakes are near Perham?
- Little Pine and Big Pine at the town itself, with Rush Lake, Big McDonald, Dead Lake and the rest of the eastern Otter Tail County group nearby.
- Why is the list so short?
- Shoreline property here is held for long periods and comes to market rarely, so the count stays low and a listing can be gone quickly once it appears.
- What should be inspected?
- Septic compliance and age, well condition, foundation type under an older cabin, insulation and winterisation, shoreland setbacks, and whether access is on a maintained road.
