This 70-acre (approx. ) property offers 3,000 feet of river frontage along the Little Isabella River, providing a peaceful and secluded setting. The property consists of a 40-acre parcel of some of the highest ground in the area as well as two smaller parcels with topography that drop down to the river. A ¾ of a mile gravel road / driveway leads into the property, where you’ll find a solar-powered camper with a diesel heater (sleeps two), a fire pit, and a permitted outhouse (approved by Lake County). There’s a trail that extends into the heart of the roughly 40-acre parcel, as well as two additional trails leading to beautiful stands of old-growth cedar trees along the river—though all trails could use a bit of cleanup to fully enjoy. The night sky is mesmerizing and must be seen to believe. The property is 30 minutes from Tettegouche State Park, 45 minutes from Ely, and adjacent to the Superior National Forest. It is five miles as the crow flies from the Boundary Waters. It is a great place to use as a base for exploring the Superior National Forest and the north shore of Lake Superior. This is a rare opportunity to own a slice of Northwoods wilderness with rustic amenities and incredible potential.
