About This Home

With no neighbors but deer and turkeys, this Baldwin retreat is a hidden pocket of privacy surrounded on all sides by the Manistee National Forest. Hunters, anglers, and outdoor enthusiasts will love the setting—thousands of acres of public land to explore, world-class trout and salmon fishing on the Pere Marquette River, and nearby Big Star Lake, Reed Lake, and Orchard Lake for boating and swimming. Miles of ORV and snowmobile trails branch out in every direction, making this the perfect basecamp for four-season adventure.
This 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage offers approx. 750 sq ft on a private .35-acre lot that feels endlessly larger thanks to its forest backdrop. The main level has been remodeled with vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning stove, and a spacious three-season room. Step out onto the large deck to sip coffee while watching wildlife or unwind after a long day outdoors.
A full basement provides room for expansion—add more bedrooms, a bunkhouse for hunting trips, or storage for all your gear. Tucked nearly a quarter-mile down a federal trail, the property offers seclusion that's rare to find, yet keeps you close to the best of Michigan's lakes and rivers.
Whether you're seeking a hunting cabin, a fisherman's retreat, or a peaceful Up North escape, 8727 S Hayes Rd offers the privacy, setting, and access that buyers dream of but seldom discover. Call today!
