About This Home

Escape to your own private 20-acre retreat, bordered on two sides by the Hiawatha National Forest and surrounded by thousands of acres of federal land. This rare parcel—one of only four private tracts in the entire area—offers unmatched seclusion and direct access to endless outdoor adventure. The cozy log cabin features a kitchen, living room with woodstove and propane space heat, a bedroom, a sleeping loft, a sauna, and an indoor toilet for added comfort. A clever water system allows you to warm the sauna, run the pump, and fill a water tank positioned above the sauna, where it heats and gravity-feeds into the shower head. Enjoy elevated views from the large deck with a sliding door, perfect for taking in the peaceful scenery and frequent wildlife. The property includes a drilled well, a spacious storage shed that houses the generator, and an outhouse with a covered area ideal for preparing game after a successful hunt. Trails run through the land, creating easy access for deer blind setups and offering excellent ATV and snowmobile riding, with direct trail access from 2231. Centrally located just off Highway 13 between Escanaba and Manistique, this is the ultimate Northwoods escape for those seeking privacy, recreation, and the beauty of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Property must be shown by a licensed Real Estate agent, so please do not trespass.
