Property Description
The Presque Isle River Forest property is an exceptional 1,200± acre wilderness legacy tract in Northern Michigan, highlighted by approximately 1.3 miles of pristine frontage along one of the state's most scenic and unspoiled waterways. Smallmouth Bass, seasonal runs of Coho and Steelhead, Northern Pike and fabulous Brook Trout are found in these waters. This deep-woods acreage features beautiful, highly mature hardwood stands distributed throughout the land, offering tremendous commercial timber value alongside breathtaking natural beauty and outstanding wildlife habitat. As you cross the bridge, which was built for very heavy trucks, you will find a three-bedroom cabin with a full basement and large, classic open fireplace. The property has its own well and the cabin is situated right alongside the flowing waters of Ledge Creek. This picturesque creek runs directly through the acreage and empties into the main river, creating a stunning backdrop. With world-class trout fishing right outside your door and immense acreage to explore, this property stands as a rare recreational masterpiece. The owners have done a fabulous job of building and then maintaining the roads throughout the property. The gravel pit that provides the material is filled with just the right mix of aggregate, sand and clay and it does not need to be crushed or screened, just lay it down where needed. You cannot help but immediately fall in love with this property as soon as you reach the bridge. Without question, you will gaze both upstream and down looking for fish, a wading deer, or signs of a multitude of wildlife that frequent a Northern forest river. "Pristine" is a word that just barely describes this property. The forest has been managed extremely well and the income potential is substantial. With over 1.3 miles of river frontage, imagine the possibilities of developing the land for individual homes or cabins to be built, all of them having their own unique view of the river. There are enough turns in the river that most cabins would never be seen by a neighbor. But, if owning a legacy property is on the top of your wishlist, count on the fact that generations that follow will appreciate the fact that you took the initiative to think of their futures by owning it. When you study the maps, know that it is just over 8 miles to where the Presque Isle River meets Lake Superior. As a major tributary to the lake, imagine the fish that find their way up the river and then remain throughout the year, imagine what the spawn looks like in spring. Now imagine how successful you and your family can be when you consider that this big woods has so few other hunters. Strategically placed food plots will pull deer in like giant magnets. As you can guess, with little human interaction, the deer are able to get old and large in this region. If you are a grouse hunter, be sure your shotgun is always available. Walking the roads in the fall is a tradition that every family should take advantage of. And a meal of grouse is like a feast that youngsters will never forget. In the fall, you can expect to see ducks following the river as they migrate south along with woodcock, fast action shooting is always fun. Take another look at the pictures of deer taken from this region, every picture tells a story and gives you an idea of your potential success to come. The property is located about 16 miles from the Gogebic-Iron County Airport (IWD), so getting here will never be a problem. As you might have noticed, the entire region is made for fun. If you are into skiing, be sure to find your way to Big Powderhorn Mountain Resort, Blackjack Mountain Resort or Snowriver Mountain Resort, or maybe the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park. If golf is your pleasure, there are some great options available.
