Near the Escanaba River State Forest, this cottage/hunting camp has all of the conveniences – electricity, well and septic! Just a short distance down the drive, tucked behind a small ridge, it is private and practically maintenance-free with vinyl exterior and metal roof. Used primarily for deer hunting but there are grouse in the area along with the occasional bear sighting. And, nearby Johnson Creek is a designated trout stream. Cozy and compact inside. Plenty of open space to enjoy a campfire outside. Enclosed entry for all of your gear, and a storage shed for all of your other needs. Want to take the chill off? Take your pick and use either the propane space heater or get the wood stove blazing!
