Beautiful location for building a home or cabin in the woods ... just minutes from Lake Michigan, touches thousands of acres of Federal Land at the Southeast corner, and very close to exceptional golf and fishing. Many varieties of trees, wildlife and solitude can be yours ... yet minutes from town. Underground utilities create an wonderful open setting. Many prime, cleared areas ideal for building sites -- electric and telephone are on the property! Or you can easily hook up an RV if you'd prefer to camp. The property also borders a wonderful creek on the Northwest side that feeds into Gurney Creek. Some of the red pines have been managed so there is timber value still available too. Wonderful mowed paths lead back into to the woods and back to the creek. Orange flags mark the So uth border of the property. Best to bring a copy of the aerial with you when you walk the property - helps to see the line of pines, borders and the creek.
