It also borders public land, offering exceptional opportunities for hunting, water access, and outdoor recreation. Enjoy a short ride to nearby trail systems for snowmobiling and ATV adventures, along with outstanding fishing in the East Branch of the Sturgeon River and Hardwood Lake. Wildlife is abundant, including deer, turkey, grouse, and even the occasional black bear.
