Opportunities to own a property of this size and diversity are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Michigan. Spanning 229.74± acres and connected to a 54± acre all-sports lake, this property offers a rare combination of large acreage, lake frontage, established wildlife habitat and well-built improvements that together create a true four-season recreational retreat. The land has been carefully and intentionally improved with the guidance of a professional land management specialist to enhance both wildlife habitat and the overall layout of the property. Rather than simply leaving the landscape untouched, the property has been thoughtfully shaped to support a healthy and sustainable wildlife population. Through intentional habitat work, retention islands have been created, hinge cutting has been implemented to encourage bedding cover and strategically placed food plots have been established throughout the property. These improvements were designed not only to attract deer and other wildlife, but to help hold them on the property year-round, creating a setting where wildlife can feed, travel and find security within the boundaries of the land. While walking the land, the amount of deer sign becomes immediately noticeable, with well-defined travel routes, weaving through the timber and connecting the habitat improvements across the landscape. The property also offers waterfowl hunting potential, with a few smaller beaver ponds and ownership around both sides of the lake helps provide access to areas that could set up well for hunting waterfowl opportunities while remaining quiet and undisturbed. A defining feature of the property is the approximately 54± acre all-sports lake. The water adds both scenic beauty and recreational value to the landscape, creating a natural place where family and guests can gather and enjoy the setting throughout the seasons, with opportunities for boating, fishing and swimming. Positioned to take advantage of the lake views is a recently remodeled ranch-style home offering approximately 2,100± square feet with four bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The layout includes a primary suite, a guest suite with its own private bath, a dedicated bunk room with built-ins, and an additional bedroom, creating a comfortable setup for both everyday living and hosting family or guests. The home was thoughtfully designed with a rustic industrial feel, featuring vaulted ceilings through the living room and kitchen along with tall ceilings throughout. Exposed ductwork and wood beams create a strong architectural focal point while maintaining a warm and inviting atmosphere. Large windows on two sides of the home frame panoramic views of the lake, filling the living spaces with natural light and making the most of the waterfront setting. The craftsmanship, design, and lake views combine to make this home a standout feature of the property and something that truly needs to be experienced in person to fully appreciate. Beyond the home, the property includes a finished recreation barn designed as a place to gather after a day outdoors. Inside you will find a bar area, full kitchenette, large upstairs bunk room, two full bathrooms and multiple gathering spaces that make this the ideal spot for hosting hunting camp weekends or large family gatherings. An additional pole barn and workshop also provide space for tractors, ATVs, boats, equipment and tools needed to maintain and enjoy the land. Properties where the land, water, wildlife habitat, and improvements come together at this scale are increasingly difficult to find in Michigan. Whether used as a hunting property, family recreational retreat, or long-term legacy holding, this property offers the space, diversity and setting to be enjoyed for generations.
