Property Description

Discover 120 +/- acres of rolling Northwoods terrain near Mellen, where mature timber, oak-covered ridge tops, and wooded ravines create a property with outstanding character. Elevated ridges overlook secluded bottoms, offering scenic views through the woods and a variety of locations to explore, hunt, or simply enjoy the quiet. A diverse mix of mature hardwoods and evergreens adds year-round interest, while observed deer, turkey, and bear sign enhances the appeal for buyers seeking their own private hunting and recreational retreat.

An existing trail stretches approximately a half mile toward the back of the property, providing a route for walking, ATV/UTV riding, and accessing the interior. Electric service equipment is already installed near the former cabin area, and existing clearings offer a starting point for a camper setup or future cabin. These established features give the next owner a head start on creating a Northwoods getaway, with plenty of acreage to explore and make their own over time.

The surrounding area offers adventures well beyond your property lines. Explore thousands of acres of regional public forest, spend a day fishing or paddling nearby Caroline Lake, or enjoy the lake-country setting around Lake Galilee. Caroline Lake Preserve, the waterfalls of Copper Falls State Park, and the North Country National Scenic Trail provide additional destinations for hiking and exploring. Whether you envision a hunting basecamp, a weekend escape, or a place to build lasting traditions, this property combines substantial acreage, memorable terrain, and a location surrounded by Northwoods recreation.
