Prime Whitetail Ground in Portage County

Property Description

70 acres of secluded, mature timber nestled in a quiet part of eastern Portage County widely known as an outdoorsman’s paradise. Monster bucks need seclusion to grow and this property has that in spades. A ¼ mile owned strip of ground heads east off Linden Road and adjoins the remainder of the property at the southwest corner of the larger section. As you head east off Linden you will travel through a forest of mature hardwoods and cross more deer trails than you can count. Quickly, you will walk under and around the massive hemlocks and cedars that characterize the majority of this property. An off-grid hunting cabin is possible here.

As per the seller, the majority of the property lies in the heart of one of the largest stands of mature cedar in Wisconsin, the Flume Creek Cedars State Natural Area. The forest floor is firm and the large cedar and hemlocks provide awesome, year-round cover for wildlife and countless stand locations. There are mature oaks dispersed throughout the property. Deer numbers are extremely strong. There are countless trails, beds, and a few massive trees rubbed across the land. The east 20 acres are enrolled in MFL Closed. This timber harvest plan, when executed, provides a tax break and a potential revenue source for the buyer.

The land has been owned by the same family for decades and has a rich tradition of providing encounters with giant whitetails this area of Portage County is known for. This property is bordered by landlocked public land to the north and east. Flume Creek flows through this public just across the north property line. Flume Creek and surrounding streams provide outstanding trout fishing for the well-rounded outdoorsman. A few minutes south of Rosholt, this location is prime for creating that up north getaway if you live to the south. Or, it is a wonderful opportunity to own that prime hunting ground if you live and/or hunt in northern Wisconsin and your traditional hunting grounds are not what they used to be. Sellers are willing to split the parcel. The west 40 and the .5 acre owned access off Linden Road would stay together. Please contact the listing agent for details regarding any interest in less than the full 70 acres.
