636.95± Acre Legacy-Caliber Whitetail Hunting Estate With Luxury Lodges, River Frontage & Managed Habitat. Situated along the Clare and Osceola County line in Central Michigan, this expansive 636.95± acre estate reflects an extensive commitment to land management, wildlife habitat development and attention to detail. From the meticulously managed hunting grounds and diverse landscape to the two beautifully finished residences and numerous recreational improvements, including a horse barn and corral for the equestrians, this property has been developed with a clear purpose. Offered turn-key and ready to be enjoyed on day one, every aspect of the land and its improvements has been carefully maintained to create a complete hunting, recreational and country estate experience. The landscape itself is one of the property's greatest strengths. Throughout the 636.95± acres is an extensive combination of mature hardwood timber, thick bedding cover, river bottom high grasses, tillable cornfields, established food plots, fruit trees and natural wildlife travel corridors. Approximately 6,500 feet of the North Branch of the Chippewa River winds through the property, providing a significant water feature and contributing to the diversity of wildlife habitat throughout the river bottom. Approximately 20± manicured food plots have been developed across the property, providing numerous hunting locations and are supported by the approximately 20± hunting blinds. The transition between these different habitat types creates a wide variety of hunting environments, from hardwood timber and secluded openings to agricultural edges, river bottoms and heavier cover. The property has a substantial history of quality whitetail hunting, supported by extensive wildlife sign, including rubs, scrapes and heavily traveled trails throughout the acreage. Access and infrastructure have also been extensively developed. A substantial internal system of maintained gravel roads and trails allows pickups, UTVs and equipment to navigate the property while providing convenient access to food plots, hunting locations and recreational areas. The size and layout of the acreage allow hunters to develop and implement a variety of hunting strategies throughout the property. Together, these features provide a diverse range of hunting experiences across the land and reflect the considerable effort invested in its long-term wildlife management. For those traveling from outside the area, a municipal airport is located approximately 7 miles from the property, providing an additional level of convenience and accessibility. Beyond the hunting grounds, the property features an impressive collection of residential and recreational improvements. The main lodge encompasses approximately 3,500± square feet and has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate larger gatherings while maintaining a comfortable residential atmosphere. An expansive open living area connects to a large dining space centered around a distinctive hand-carved artistic dining table. A spacious serving kitchen and wet bar provide additional room for entertaining. The lodge includes five bedrooms and three and one-half bathrooms, including a generous primary suite with a walk-in closet. Offered turn-key with high-end furnishings and appliances included, the lodge is ready for immediate enjoyment. Carefully selected finishes complement the interior throughout. Outside, a covered patio overlooks the expansive manicured lawn and nearby trap shooting and archery range. A separate guest house provides approximately 1,475± square feet of additional finished living space. This residence includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and an open living and dining area. Composite decking on both the front and rear of the home offers multiple locations to enjoy the surrounding landscape. Together, the two residences provide eight bedrooms and five and one-half bathrooms, creating substantial accommodations for extended stays, hunting groups and guests. The supporting outbuildings add another level of functionality to the property. A 56' x 32' pole barn features concrete floors, electrical service, four overhead doors and an additional 10' lean-to along the rear for covered storage. A separate equipment storage barn provides additional space for maintaining the land and housing recreational equipment. For equestrian interests, a 30' x 40' horse barn includes four horse stalls with direct access to an established horse corral. The grounds also feature a dedicated trap shooting shack and range, archery opportunities, a pond and extensive open lawn areas. The care and dedication invested in this property are evident in everything from the carefully managed landscape to the quality and condition of its many improvements. Whether spending a morning pursuing whitetails, riding horses through the property, fishing the pond, enjoying an afternoon at the shooting range or gathering around the table at the main lodge, there is an incredible variety of experiences to be enjoyed across these 636.95± acres. What has been created here goes well beyond a traditional hunting property. It is a complete recreational estate where the land, wildlife management, residences and improvements all come together. Much of the groundwork has already been established for the next owner to continue enjoying and managing the property. The sheer scale, diversity of habitat and attention to detail are difficult to fully capture in photographs or words. This is a property that truly needs to be experienced firsthand to appreciate everything it has to offer. Contact us today to schedule your own private tour.
