The legendary homestead with a distinct peninsula sits on 15.5 acres with an expansive 2,170 feet of waterfront was purchased by the Randall family back in the 1900s. Patriarch Bo Randall, who would go on to found Randall Made Knives, spent countless hours hunting the property with his good friend Ernest Hemingway according to stories.
