Description
This exceptional 773.42± acre property stands as one of Michigan’s legacy estates for hunting, recreation, and investment. Located in Arenac County just 3 miles from Au Gres, the Perch Fishing Capital of Michigan. This property offers the rare combination of total privacy and proximity to high-class Lake Huron recreation. Owners can enjoy the peace and quiet of their own private land while being close enough to explore boating, fishing and the many offerings of Michigan’s Great Lakes region. Spanning across a diverse landscape, the property features a balanced mix of hardwoods including oaks and maples, thick lowland bedding areas and open ground with several established food plots. A well-designed trail system and multiple elevated blinds provide seamless access to every corner of the land, creating an environment well-suited for whitetail, turkey and other game. Generations of management have gone into this property, with a proven history of producing success year after year. At the heart of the estate is a 3,600± square foot barndominium lodge, purpose-built to accommodate large groups. The lodge offers 10 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a spacious open dining and living area designed for gathering. An attached garage and shop space with dual 16’ overhead doors provides functionality for equipment, gear, and vehicles. Beyond hunting and recreation, the lodge has proven rental and investment potential, with a track record of generating income through vacation rentals and gatherings. The property is currently enrolled in the Qualified Forest Program (QFP), providing valuable tax benefits while also supporting sustainable forest management and habitat improvement. Two ponds further add to the year-round recreational appeal, offering opportunities for fishing, swimming, or simple relaxation by the water. Whether for private use, corporate retreats or as an investment-grade holding, this estate represents a rare opportunity to own a large, well-managed property with income potential in Central Michigan.
