placed openings creates exceptional wildlife habitat throughout the property. Large mast-producing oaks provide an important food source while also offering future timber value. Several secluded openings are already established and ready for food plot development, allowing a new owner to further enhance the property's carrying capacity. Thick brush, native grasses, and secure bedding areas provide the cover mature bucks seek throughout the year. A small pond near the power line corridor supplies a dependable water source, while the marshy habitat associated with Sturgeon Creek creates a natural sanctuary where wildlife can thrive with minimal disturbance. This protected cover serves as a critical transition area for deer traveling to and from the large agricultural fields located just north of the property. The result is a highly desirable combination of food, cover, water, and security that consistently attracts and holds wildlife. Evidence of heavy wildlife activity is found throughout the property, including well-worn deer trails, tracks, rubs, scrapes, droppings, and abundant turkey sign. The hunting infrastructure is already in place, featuring three elevated blinds, including two nearly new Redneck blinds, along with multiple strategically positioned tree stands that will transfer with the sale. This turnkey setup allows the next owner to step in and start hunting immediately. Beyond the exceptional hunting opportunities, the property offers access to some of Mid-Michigan's best outdoor recreation. Recently restored Sanford Lake lies just west of the property, providing excellent boating, fishing, and water recreation opportunities. For even more outdoor adventure, hundreds of contiguous acres of state land border the property to the east and south, dramatically expanding the available habitat and creating an extensive wildlife corridor for deer, turkey, and other game species. Saginaw Bay and its world-class fishing opportunities are also just a short drive away. Whether you're searching for a premier hunting property, a secluded recreational getaway, or a long-term land investment with valuable timber and outstanding habitat, this remarkable 97-acre Midland County tract delivers a rare opportunity to own one of the area's most complete recreational properties. **Maps contained on our sites are there to simply depict the overall layout or shape of a given property and show what it looks like from an aerial view.
