A rare opportunity to own 140.7 contiguous acres of professionally managed recreational land in Mille Lacs County. Comprised of two 70+/-acre parcels, this exceptional property offers a unique combination of mature timber, productive farmland, quality wildlife habitat, multiple income opportunities, and outstanding building potential for a dream home, hunting lodge, or private cabin retreat. The diverse landscape features rolling hardwoods, native prairie, seasonal wetlands, several ponds, established clearings, and approximately 25 acres of productive tillable ground. Mature oak, maple, popple, conifers and other native tree species provide excellent cover and timber value. Corn and soybean rotation borders the east side, while organic alfalfa and grasses border the west, creating outstanding food sources for wildlife. A professional Woodland Stewardship Plan and extensive Deer Management Plan are already in place, outlining future opportunities for food plots, conifer plantings, prairie restoration, edge feathering, fruit trees, stand locations, trails, travel funnels, water hole improvements, mock scrape sites, and more. Current trail cameras continue to capture regular wildlife activity. Southern access is ideal for hunting with the area's predominant north and northwest winds. Wildlife is abundant, including whitetail deer, turkey, black bear, grouse, pheasants, and small game for legal game species known to be on the property. During wetter periods, the seasonal ponds attract ducks, geese, swans, and pelicans. A logging contract is available for the buyer to assume, with an estimated return of approximately $50,000. Trees selected for harvest and invasive species have already been professionally marked to improve long-term forest health and wildlife habitat.
