Michigan 79-Acre Recreational/Residential Parcel For Sale! This parcel is located in Greenland Township, in eastern Ontonagon County just south-east of Mass City. The parcel has excellent hunting habitat with some wooded and some open land. It is known for abundant Game Species including Whitetail deer, Black bear, Geese and Ruffed grouse. A system of trails is developed throughout the parcel. Two elevated (heated) deer stands provide the benefits of protection from the elements, increased stealth, helps keep your scent above the ground dwelling animals, reduces or muffles sounds, and provide better views. One stand is over a two track road and is great for early season bow hunting. Deer pass right by this stand without detecting hunters directly above them. The second stand is over an open field and provides excellent later rifle season access to browsing deer herds.The 15+/- Acre hay field is enclosed by woodlands and has been strategically planted year-round to increase the odds of seeing quality deer. For years the field has been planted with timothy, clover, sunflowers, corn, and pumpkins in early season, with the addition of fall plantings of turnips and sugar beets. This steady diversity of year round nutritious forage draws the deer from their bedding area in the islands of pine, hemlock, and balsam in the south-western corner of the parcel. For additional recreation, this parcel is a short drive to Sandstone Rapids, Grand Rapids, Irish Rapids and the O Kun De Kun for waterfall hikes, as well as to Bob Lake for some good Perch, Sunfish, and Walleye fishing, and Courtney Lake (a designated Trout Lake) for some great Brook trout fishing.Ten miles to the west is Lake Superior, the largest fresh water lake in the world!
