Whitetail & Turkey Haven Near Lake Michigan

Property Details

Large recreational hunting tracts like this are becoming harder and harder to find. Tucked away with significant road frontage on 700 N and two access points off Ray Bush Dr., this property offers both convenience and seclusion. Once you venture a short distance into the woods, you’ll feel like you’re miles from civilization — exactly the kind of peace and quiet every hunter dreams of. The land features an excellent internal trail system, allowing easy access to every corner of the property without disturbing key hunting areas. As you move through the timber, you’ll notice a healthy mix of mature trees that not only provide prime wildlife habitat but also offer long-term income potential through proper forestry management.

This property is a haven for whitetail deer and turkeys, with ample cover, natural travel corridors, and nearby crop fields that give the local game everything they need to thrive. There are countless roosting spots for turkeys, and with a few well-placed food plots, this tract could become your go-to destination for big bucks year after year. East Branch Trail Creek winds through the land, providing a year-round water source that supports a diverse population of wildlife, including deer, turkeys, and small game.

For those dreaming of building a cabin or even a full-time residence, the property offers several ideal building sites. Imagine waking up in a peaceful, wooded setting with nothing but the sound of birds and the rustle of leaves — yet being just minutes from modern amenities. Quick access to US 20 and I-94 makes travel easy, and Lake Michigan is only a short drive away, adding to the property’s recreational appeal. Whether you’re looking for your own private hunting retreat, a timber investment, or a place to build your dream home in the woods, this unique property checks all the boxes. Opportunities like this don’t come around often — now is the time to claim your piece of paradise.
