This 122+/- acres of hardwoods, softwoods and pine make for a fantastic secluded hunting getaway. The property consists of two separate parcels. A full Log Cabin, built in 2024, occupies its own 2+ acre surveyed lot. This parcel is situated north of Lake Road. The second surveyed parcel consists of 120+ acres located approximately 1/2 mile south of Lake Road and the cabin. This parcel is accessed via a recorded 66-foot recorded easement that leads to the northwest corner of the 120+- acres. The gently rolling 120+ acres boasts a trail system allowing full access to the property. The parcel is surrounded on two sides by ag fields that create a mecca for deer, turkeys and grouse. Bear hunting is also an option.

The Log Cabin is 28 x 28 with a loft up above and heated with a wood burner stove and electric baseboard heat on Wi-Fi smart plugs so that you can warm the cabin before your arrival. The cabin sleeps 6 to 8 people and is serviced by a sandpoint well with a fully functioning kitchen, bathroom, and shower. The current septic system is a 2000-gallon holding tank. The pump house and utility room are heated to remain functioning year-round.

Deer and turkey numbers are high in this area. The largest antlered buck pictured was harvested on a neighboring property in 2024 gun season and purported to score over 180". There are two food plots within the 120 along with a mixture of clover, chicory, turnips, and winter rye ensuring theres always a destination after the surrounding crops are taken down. Quality Deer Management is practiced in the area. The owner has Nine Enclosed stands, six of which are negotiable. Also included are over 15 ladder stands in great spots throughout the property. Three strategically placed water holes hold between 100 and 250 gallons of water. The shop is a 30 x 50 steel building wired with 220 power separate from the cabin. There is a wood-burning heater stove should you desire to heat it. Youll find a walk-in cooler Just completed by the owner for those warm harvest days to keep your venison cool until you get at it

The north end of the structure is a 9 x 30 enclosed and heated bunk house area currently used as a dressing and gear room to keep everything scent-free.

The property hunts larger than the 120 acres because it is so dense throughout the majority, and as such it could use a strategic thinning for regrowth. The acreage was enrolled in an MFL closed program, this past year, for management and tax reduction benefits. This is a must-see property for the serious hunters who want something that is multi-use and can be enjoyed year-round. Just 3 miles south of Melrose or 15 miles from Black River Falls.
