This would be a great area to build your permanent residence or a cabin to get away from it all. Its location is just north of Covington and 15 miles south of L'Anse. This 40-acre tract offers a cleared area that already has a 28' x 32' poured concrete slab. The seller has had a well and septic evaluation completed. See associated documents. Electricity is available at the county road. The access road from the Calumet Road to the clearing has been graveled. There is a small, older shed in the clearing that is used for storage. The area offers unlimited recreation for the outdoor enthusiast. Activities include fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, atving, hiking, snowshoeing, mountain biking to name a few. The area is excellent for deer hunting, as evidenced by the numerous trails, and this tract offers a variety of forest types for all wildlife. There is a hemlock stand, a northern hardwood stand and an area with smaller regeneration. These types are excellent habitat for black bear, grouse, rabbit, and other mammals and birds that call it home.
