You located a great hunting property found in the midst of a monster piece of National Forest Land, very near the Pine and Popple Rivers, and serviced by a very well-maintained road that is open all year long. This is one of those properties that is rarely found, one you can always get to, connected to public land and hard for others to reach. The land is contiguous to the National Forest on both the east and south sides, providing direct access to very large blocks of land available for your use all year long. A fabulous trail system is already in place that leads you to several open areas ready to be planted. A nice stand of Red Pine is found on the southwest corner of the land, the area that was formerly farmed. If you have ever considered building a log cabin, you will have plenty of straight and tall pines to choose from. Deer and turkeys love the cover provided by the pines, knowing they can see for a distance and escape in seconds if needed. As you move north on the trail, you come to an open area on the edge of a field, ready to be made into a food plot. One quarter mile farther north, at the base of a hardwood ridge, the trail turns east, winding through the hardwoods and spruce to another open area perfect for planting. If you take a bit of time to plant food plots here, you can count on drawing deer out of the national forest for several miles in any direction. This hidden area is over 1/4 mile from Morgan Lake Road and about 900 feet from the edge of the National Forest, and with no other roads in the area, you can count on enjoying a peaceful day when you get to your stand. The trail that starts at the road extends almost a mile before ending at the northeast corner of the land. Some really nice bucks are finding their way onto the property daily. Check the recent pictures once more. A number of does and smaller bucks are also seen daily, and this is happening without any food plots currently having been planted- imagine how many deer will find their way to your property once planted. Morgan Lake Road, which provides access to this gorgeous property, runs for miles and miles through the national forest and will take you all the way to Fence, a great place to have lunch and a drink. As the crow flies, it is over 11 miles to Fence from the property. Drive your car or jump on your ATV or UTV. In the fall, the entire region provides some of the most beautiful views found in the Northwoods. The Popple River is located just 2/3 of a mile to the south, a great river for floating and trout fishing. Long Lake is just several miles northwest; the Pine River is only 6 miles away, and don't forget about Morgan Lake, Halsey Lake, and Fay Lake, all of which are not far away. Once you look at this land and get a sense of how the land lies, rolls, and provides access to the public land it is attached to, you will immediately look for the best place to build a cabin or home. Even though there is no electricity available at the property, solar panels and a generator for backup will provide everything needed. The soil is sandy, which is the reason the trees grow so well. Finding a place for a septic system will not be difficult at all. The driveway and trails are in place, and good numbers of deer, bear, turkeys, and grouse are there to be enjoyed. This property is owned by the listing agent, a licensed Wisconsin realtor. For the most accurate description of what this property can provide for you and your family, be sure to contact the listing agents. Reasonably priced land with great access attached to the National Forest is rare, and even more rare to find one that is ready to enjoy and allows a large group of hunters to spread out on opening day. Call today, but look at the pictures just once more.
