About this land

With 30.86 acres of meadows, hardwood forest, wildlife habitat and trails, this West Turin, NY property offers plenty of room to create a private off-grid hunting compound in the heart of Tug Hill. Open deer meadows at the front transition into beautiful northern woodlands featuring sugar maple, beech, yellow birch and scattered large white pines. Deer sign is plentiful, and a small wetland area toward the back adds habitat diversity and creates another promising area for hunters. Intermittent trails provide access through portions of the property, with plenty of room for exploring, hunting and improving your own trail network. The acreage offers the space needed for a substantial recreational retreat while maintaining privacy from neighboring properties. Access is provided from a year-round road that is open to snowmobiles and ATVs. The surrounding Tug Hill region is known throughout the Northeast for its snowmobile riding, and the area also provides extensive opportunities for ATV and UTV recreation. Snow Ridge Ski Resort is just 10 minutes away. Highmarket Inn Bar and Restaurant and Whiskey Jack's, both popular with area riders, are approximately two miles from the property. Nearby Lesser Wilderness and Sand Flats State Forests add thousands of acres of outdoor recreation to the surrounding landscape, with opportunities for hunting, hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Whetstone Gulf State Park, Agers Falls and Lyons Falls provide additional destinations for hiking, waterfalls and sightseeing. For hunters looking for enough acreage to establish food plots, hunting stands, trails and an off-grid camp, this West Turin property offers an outstanding canvas for creating your own Tug Hill retreat.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
