Muskrat Lake
Surrounded by nature
Walkability 1.4/10·Schools 4.8/10
The first thing you notice out here is the water—Duck Lake sits practically on your doorstep, less than a fifth of a mile away, and there's a public access point just a seven-minute walk if you want to launch a kayak or cast a line without overthinking it. The landscape is defined by that lake proximity; homes sit among mature trees with genuine access to the water rather than just a view of it from a distance. It's the kind of place where you can reasonably spend a summer evening on the lake and be back before dark.
