Whitetail Properties is proud to present this truly special property in Northern Michigan, which has over 475 acres of pristine property with miles of trails and roads and is one of the most spectacular log homes we have ever had the privilege of bringing to the market.
As you enter through the large gated entry, a long, winding, manicured gravel road takes you back to one of the most beautiful and well-built custom log homes you will ever see. Built by one of the most reputable and talented log home builders, this log home is like something out of a movie or a magazine. With just over 10,000 sq. ft. of living space among 3 levels, this home has it all. There are 2 beautiful stone fireplaces in the house. 6 bedrooms plus a TV Room, Storage Room, and a Playroom could also be used as additional bedrooms. There are 4 full bathrooms and 2 half baths. A large safe room with concrete walls and a vault door. A beautiful large custom kitchen with a full walk-in pantry and a large island. There is a large game room with a full bar area. On the lower level, there is an additional kitchen/bar area and a hunter's room perfect for storing gear and getting ready for the hunt. A large spa area with an extra large hot tub and a large cedar sauna room is the perfect spot to relax.
There is a full wrap-around deck that has all been recently re-finished with trex decking, along with a large screened-in porch area that provides spectacular views in all directions. From a mechanical standpoint, no expense was spared with a multi-zoned Geothermal HVAC system for heat and Air Conditioning. There is a standby backup generator system in case of a power outage. If you so choose, a windmill system on site could be put back into operation to generate your electricity off-grid. A complete surveillance system has been installed to see all parts of the home at all times. There is a large maintenance building for storing all your equipment, ATVs, tools, and equipment that has been finished to match the log home. The detail that has gone into the home's construction is amazing and shows throughout. Additionally there is a rustic guest cabin with a block storage building on the property that both have newer metal roofs on them.
The property itself is just as spectacular as the log home. Numerous lush green food plots with elevated blinds are strategically located throughout the property—a stocked pond filled with Bass and beautiful views around every corner. The property is extremely diverse, with beautiful timber of all species, oak, maple, poplar, and pine, as well as areas of thick bedding and cover for the wildlife. Besides the stocked pond, Eddy Creek winds through the north portion of the property, which provides even more fishing opportunities for trout. Larger tracts like this are hard to find in northern Michigan, especially of this caliber. Loaded with deer, turkey, bear, and other wildlife, whether hunting, fishing, hiking, trail riding, or just enjoying nature, this is truly an outdoorsman paradise.
The property is conveniently located off of M-33 just south of M-55, north of I-75, and is not far from other Northern Michigan attractions. The Rifle River Recreation area is just NE of the property. The Rifle River is very close to the property, where you can enjoy more fishing opportunities, kayaking, or canoeing. Several inland lakes are nearby, like Lake Ogemaw and Peach Lake. Several very nice golf courses, like the Dream and the Nightmare, are a short distance away. Thousands of acres of state and federal land are nearby for even more recreational opportunities like trail riding or snowmobiling.
