Description
Located in the heart of northern Minnesota's premier recreational corridor, this exceptional 35.1± deeded acre property offers a rare combination of productive acreage, outstanding hunting opportunities, waterfront access, and future development potential. Situated approximately 10 miles southeast of Bagley and about 30 miles west of Bemidji in Clearwater County, this versatile tract provides a unique opportunity for hunters, investors, farmers, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
The property consists of approximately 25 acres of open ground currently utilized for hay production. The productive soils and open acreage provide multiple opportunities for future use. The land could easily be returned to row crop production, fenced and utilized as pasture ground, or maintained as hay acreage. The open fields also create excellent opportunities for strategically located food plots to further enhance the property's wildlife appeal.
One of the most attractive features of this property is its exceptional recreational setting. The parcel boasts more than 800 feet of frontage along Mud Lake, providing direct access to a highly regarded waterfowl destination. Mud Lake is well known throughout the area for outstanding duck and goose hunting opportunities and serves as an important stopover habitat for migrating waterfowl.
Adding to the recreational value, the property directly adjoins more than 200 acres of state land to the north, providing immediate access to additional public hunting opportunities and wildlife habitat. Just to the southwest lies the expansive Upper Rice Lake Wildlife Management Area, encompassing thousands of acres of publicly accessible habitat known for excellent waterfowl hunting, deer hunting, grouse hunting, and other outdoor recreation.
The property's location between Mud Lake and the surrounding public lands creates a natural wildlife travel corridor. Deer frequently utilize the area as they move between bedding, feeding, and travel areas, making this an exceptional setup for hunters seeking strategic stand locations. The combination of open fields, wetland habitat, nearby state land, and surrounding wildlife corridors creates ideal conditions for attracting and holding game throughout the season.
Wildlife in the area is abundant and diverse. Clearwater County is known for healthy populations of whitetail deer, black bear, wild turkey, ruffed grouse, and a variety of waterfowl species. The property's mix of habitat types and proximity to significant public land holdings make it an attractive destination for year-round outdoor recreation.
The predominantly sandy loam soils offer excellent drainage and provide ideal conditions for establishing food plots, agricultural production, or future building projects. Multiple locations throughout the property would make outstanding sites for a country home, hunting cabin, or Northwoods retreat overlooking the surrounding landscape.
Access is excellent with road frontage along both the west and south boundaries. Located on a quiet dead-end road, the property offers privacy and seclusion while maintaining convenient year-round access.
Whether you are looking to expand your farming operation, establish a hunting property with exceptional habitat and public land access, build a rural getaway, or invest in quality Minnesota land, this Clearwater County tract deserves serious consideration. Properties offering productive acreage, waterfront frontage, direct state land access, and proximity to a major wildlife management area are increasingly difficult to find in today's market
