Lake Minnetonka, the Eden and most charming spot of all at Minnetonka. Its beauties are known all over this terrestrial sphere. Consists of 40 acres, 30 acres natural park, a dreamland, covered with massive maple, basswood, elm, oak; 10 acres under a high state of cultivation in currants, grapes, strawberries, vegetables. No place in state can compare for fruit raising. Buildings worth $5,000— consisting of large hotel and cottages. To witness a sunset at Shady Island is like one of those grand sunset scenes in far off Switzerland, where the sun is like a solid molten mass, seeming stationary and weary in the west, after its day’s journey through the heavens, as if stuck in a patch of Spaulding’s glue. And the puffs from the hundreds of steam launches and the ripple of the waves makes the scene enchanting.
For a man of means its a paradise for a home, or can be divided and sold to great advantage to party of four, and to the speculator there is wealth beyond dreams. Can be platted into 160 quarter-acre lots, large portion water fronts, and everyone sold at an average of S400.00 per lot— $64,000.00. Mr. Thomas Lowry has 1000 men at work now building new trolley line, which will run but a short distance of this far-famed island. Tonka’s home of the “Nimrod”. Just think of it! $13,000.00 buys the property on easy terms. Positively the best real estate deal ever offered in the Gopher State. About the same as stealing the property. Call, write or wire
