This unique offering is a great opportunity to acquire a large tract of land and waterfront. The property features 88 acres and 1,000 ft of Bass Lake frontage. Bass Lake is a 35 acre, 25' deep spring-fed lake in Rusk County, filled with Bass, Pike and panfish. The undeveloped property provides a natural sanctuary where wildlife thrives; including deer, turkey, and bear. The NE 40 acres was clear cut less than 10 years ago and the 40 acres to the south remains heavily wooded. Enjoy easy boat access with a private launch on site. The convenient location just 2 hours NE of the Twin Cities balances peace and quiet with accessibility to local amenities. Potential for development and additional acreage available with the opportunity to own frontage on Caley Lake (to the south) as well.
