Wildlife. Wonder. Waiting. Cedar Creek Ranch is 400 acres of untamed Leelanau County beauty where privacy, wildlife, and possibility come together in a way that’s nearly impossible to find today. Stretching across Kasson, Solon, and Centerville townships, this extraordinary property feels like Northern Michigan’s own Jurassic Park, wild, secluded, and full of opportunity. At the center of the ranch sits a custom-built 6,200-square-foot home featuring solid oak trim, cherry hardwood floors, and sweeping views across pasture and hardwood ridge-lines. From the sunken living room to the oversized kitchen built for gathering around the island, every space was designed to bring people together and slow life down a little. Beyond the home, the landscape includes 200 acres of high-fenced wilderness where deer roam freely, honoring the property’s hunting heritage. Victoria Creek winds through cedar swamp and lowland forest, while wildlife, waterfowl, and starlit skies make every day here feel connected to nature. The stocked pond, filled with trout, largemouth bass, and sunfish, only adds to the experience. With no conservation easements and a transferable DNR/Ag permit already in place, the possibilities here remain wide open. The property includes The 1300 Sq ft Lodge, a five-stall horse barn with indoor arena, supporting, fenced pasture and supporting amenities, a finished garage, batting cage, accessory buildings, two large workshops, and so much more. Together they create the perfect setup for equestrian living, retreats and events, hobby farming, or a multi-generational family compound. Located just 1.5 miles from Cedar, only 30 minutes from Cherry Capital Airport, and 40 minutes from Traverse City Horse Shows, Cedar Creek Ranch feels worlds away while staying remarkably accessible. Whether you envision a luxury outdoor retreat, an equestrian haven, or a legacy property built to last for generations, this is a place designed to hold big dreams.
Legacy, Land and Lifestyle await. This exceptional Leelanau County estate presents a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully developed Up North retreat centered around equestrian living, family connection, and the joy of wide-open space. At its center is a custom-built home featuring solid oak trim, cherry hardwood floors, and expansive windows that capture views of the countryside. Designed for comfort and connection, the home offers generous living areas, a spacious kitchen made for gathering, and a wraparound porch where sunrises and wildlife sightings become daily life. Complementing the main residence is 1300 sq ft Lodge, an inviting guest retreat overlooking the pond and surrounding sanctuary. Originally the family's first home, it later welcomed guests who traveled from near and far to experience the ranch during its active hunting years. For equestrian enthusiasts, the estate is ready to ride. A 50 x 56 five-stall horse barn includes wash and grooming areas, tack and feed storage, and room for future expansion. Attached is a 72' x 80' indoor riding arena with LED lighting, providing year-round opportunities for riding and training. Fenced pasture and supporting improvements complete the setup. Includes a finished and insulated four-car garage, along with several accessory buildings (60'x24' Storage Building & 24' x 24' Insulated workshop) for hobbies, equipment, and future endeavors. The spring-fed pond, stocked with trout, largemouth bass, and sunfish, serves as a peaceful centerpiece while attracting abundant wildlife throughout the seasons. Located just 1.5 miles from Cedar, 30 minutes from Cherry Capital Airport, and approximately 40 minutes from Traverse City Horse Shows, this property strikes the perfect balance between privacy, recreation, and accessibility. Whether envisioned as an equestrian estate, family retreat, hobby farm, or lasting legacy, this is a place where memories are made, traditions endure, and the next chapter is ready to be written.
