Tucked into the sought-after Riverland area of Escanaba Township, this 80-acre tract offers the kind of access, habitat and existing infrastructure serious land buyers look for. Fronting a paved county road with power available, the property combines strong recreational appeal with future building potential. The front portion offers convenient access and a practical starting point for a camp, cabin or possible year-round build. The property has been managed and used exclusively as hunting ground for years. Approximately 65 acres were thinned roughly 20 years ago and have regenerated into a healthy, managed forest, promoting excellent bedding and wildlife habitat. The remaining acreage includes a mix of hardwoods, conifers, creek drainages and lower ground, giving the parcel the variety that helps hold deer & other wildlife throughout the season. An established internal road and trail system runs through the property, including maintained loops, clearings and access to an existing deer blind. These roads make it easier to reach different parts of the acreage, manage the property, retrieve game and enjoy the land year-round. The mix of cover, edge, openings and water features gives the property the feel of a proven hunting tract rather than untouched acreage with no infrastructure. The Riverland area is well regarded for deer hunting, privacy and convenient access from Escanaba, Gladstone and the surrounding communities. This parcel offers a rare combination of paved-road frontage, available power, hunting improvements, varied terrain and enough acreage to create a meaningful private recreational holding. The sellers are also offering a separate 15.5-acre Ford River property just to the north with a turnkey off-grid cabin, garage and 1/4-mile river frontage. The properties may be purchased separately or together. Sellers reserve the right to give preference to offers proposing the combined purchase of both properties.
