Description
The Wisconsin River meanders through every one of the seller’s parcels, creating tremendous opportunities to harvest mature bucks and bears. Ducks and geese can be found throughout the bottoms. The west parcel is the location of the existing camp; a well, septic, and 9KW generator are already in place. Along with the original cabin (now used for storage), another small shed is great for keeping toys out of the weather. The primary cabin was located on a high spot overlooking the river bottom, but unfortunately, that cabin was destroyed by fire from a lightning strike in recent months. The exact location could be used to rebuild a new cabin if you desire. By the time you see this property, the site of the former cabin will have been thoroughly cleaned up and will again be level; the old materials will be removed from the site.
The river bottom is gorgeous, the drone shots give a good sense of the many paths the river has taken through time, and many small oxbow lakes have been created that hold water and create perfect areas to set up for passing ducks, geese, and woodcock in fall. Vilas County Forest surrounds much of this property. Even more important is the fact that most of that county forest is yours to hunt without encountering other hunters because of its location. Buying these 120 acres is like buying hundreds and hundreds of additional acres at no cost to you. After you leave the cabin parcel, follow the well-maintained forest trail through county land to find yourself on the other two parcels, both virtually surrounded by county forest. The river, the wetlands, and a secondary creek create so many corridors that this property will easily allow a very large group to hunt it at one time, with nobody stepping on someone else’s toes.
Success has been outstanding in the past; take a good look at the game pics. Some monsters roam these woods. If you take the time to plant a few food plots, your land will attract game from miles away. Much of the timber is mature, but the different ages and trees make this land very attractive and will be for many years to come.
If you enjoy ATVing or Snowmobiling, you might have located the finest property on the market right now. The trail is located just ½ mile west of the northwest parcel; access is immediate. Trails in this part of the state are fabulous and well maintained by local clubs. Maybe you would enjoy spending the day on the river with a canoe or a boat, maybe swimming at a local lake sounds good, fishing in one of the fine lakes is another option, the choices are endless. When was the last time you trapped muskrats or mink? What a great way to get young people interested in the outdoors. Maybe having a safe location to train a new hunter is high on your list. This is a wonderful place to feel comfortable, allowing young hunter to spread their wings.
Since the property is located behind a gate and at the end of the road, you can count on having peace and quiet. Set up your decoys to enjoy fast action on teal, wood ducks, or mallards, then watch the sky to the west as woodcocks dart back and forth as they follow the meandering river right past your boat. This is a rare find, and the clock is ticking. This off-grid location will become a favorite for your family and friends. Take the time to walk this property and find everything you have been looking for. An opportunity like this one does not surface every day, so be prepared to come with the intent of owning it. For the best description of what this property has to offer you and your family, contact Terry Patrick, the listing agent. Study the pictures and maps once more, then pick up the phone. You will be glad you did.
