Seven ponds, established food plots, a secluded cabin and miles of maintained trails shape this 113± acre Ontario County property into a turnkey hunting and recreational retreat. From the road, a well-kept 40-by-80-foot insulated pole barn provides a substantial headquarters for equipment, vehicles and land-management tools. Electricity, water and an enclosed work area add year-round function, while the building’s generous footprint leaves ample room for storage and future plans. Beyond the barn, wide trails thread deep into the acreage, with many stretches built to accommodate a full-sized truck. They connect established food plots, potential planting sites, ponds and strategic reaches of timber, making the property easy to manage throughout the seasons. A Redneck hard-sided blind on an elevated platform is already positioned, and a history of trophy buck harvests speaks to the quality of the habitat and years of thoughtful stewardship. Seven ponds bring water into nearly every chapter of the landscape. They vary in size, shape and depth, led by a stocked pond of approximately one-third acre set within a sunny opening behind the timber. Here, open sky meets still water—a natural destination for fishing, wildlife watching or an unhurried afternoon along the bank. Near the eastern property line, an in-woods two-room cabin waits beneath the canopy. A wood stove warms the interior, while the covered front porch offers a quiet seat overlooking the woods. It is a fitting base for hunting weekends, overnight stays and time spent away from the road. The well-managed timber stand is enrolled in New York State’s 480-a Forest Tax Law program, offering a significant property-tax reduction while supporting long-term forest management. Established infrastructure, diverse water, productive habitat and a proven hunting history give this property depth well beyond its acreage. At 6989 Ross Road in Springwater, the work has been done, the systems are in place, and the woods are ready for their next season of stewardship. All showings must be have a real estate agent present. Buyers must present proof of funds or proof of pre-qualification to schedule a showing.
