Some properties make a strong first impression from the road. Others reveal their true character only after you step onto the land and spend time exploring it. This 83.32± acre property in Clare County falls into the second category.
At first glance, it may not fully reveal what lies beyond the entrance, but as you move deeper into the property, the landscape begins to tell a different story. Rolling terrain, subtle elevation changes, and diverse habitat create a property that feels much larger than its acreage suggests. Natural ridges, shelves, saddles, and transition areas combine to form the kind of terrain features that consistently influence wildlife movement throughout the property.
During walks across the property, deer sign was difficult to ignore. Well-worn trails cut through the timber and thicker cover, with numerous scrapes scattered along travel routes. In many locations, the sign is concentrated enough that trails can be followed for considerable distances simply by moving from scrape to scrape. The property's topography naturally funnels movement through several key areas, creating multiple locations that could be utilized for hunting setups depending on wind direction and seasonal movement patterns.
Water is another major component of this property's appeal. The property contains several natural watering holes along with two active beaver ponds that serve as focal points for wildlife activity. These wetland features attract not only whitetail deer but also a variety of waterfowl, including ducks and geese, while adding another layer of habitat diversity to the property. Additionally, Cranberry Creek flows through the southern portion of the tract, providing yet another water source and natural travel corridor.
The property is predominantly mature timber, creating extensive cover and habitat throughout much of the acreage. While a few existing openings are currently present, there are several locations within the timber where additional food plots could be established to complement the property's natural features. An older trail system remains visible throughout many areas of the property, though it has grown in over time. Reestablishing portions of the trail network would provide improved access while creating additional opportunities for recreation, habitat management, and hunting access.
Another attractive feature is the approximately 8-15± acres of open ground currently in grass. This area provides flexibility for a variety of uses, whether your goals include pasture for horses or livestock, hobby farming, row crop production, food plot establishment, or generating potential income through cash rent. Surrounded by larger neighboring landowners and agricultural acreage, the setting offers a combination of rural character, open space, and wildlife-friendly surroundings.
While the land is undoubtedly the centerpiece of this offering, the improvements add meaningful value and functionality. The property includes a multi-bedroom farmhouse that serves as a comfortable base camp for hunting season, weekend recreation, or extended stays. Having on-site lodging allows owners and guests to fully enjoy the property without the need for additional infrastructure or immediate improvements.
The location further enhances the property's versatility. Cranberry Lake and Arnold Lake are located less than a mile away, providing convenient access to fishing, boating, and additional outdoor recreation opportunities. The property is situated east of US-127 and just north of Harrison, making it accessible while still offering a rural setting.
Whether your interests focus on whitetail hunting, turkey hunting, waterfowl opportunities, recreational use, farming, livestock, horses, or the potential for a future homestead, this property offers a combination of features that support a wide range of outdoor lifestyles.
This is one of those properties that needs to be walked to understand everything it has to offer. To schedule your private tour, contact Chuck or Cody Keefer today.
