envelop
Located in Morrison County, Minnesota, this ±474.40-acre property has an exceptional setting with a rare combination of features. It offers a diverse combination of timber, agricultural ground, wetlands, water, and established wildlife habitat. The views add another layer to the property. A sense of peace and serenity here is hard to describe until you stand on the property and take it all in. The views span a diverse landscape, creating a setting that feels private and removed from the everyday pace of life. With hunting, fishing, wildlife, and other recreational opportunities throughout the property, there are countless ways to enjoy the land and its natural surroundings. Together, these features make this a particularly distinctive property with few comparable opportunities. The lake, river, diverse terrain, agricultural fields, timber, and wildlife combine to create a setting that feels both expansive and private. Few properties offer this many ways to enjoy the outdoors in one place, and the combination of scenery, habitat, hunting, fishing, and recreational opportunities makes this a particularly special property. The property features a beautiful rolling mixed forest with numerous mature oak trees and significant terrain changes, creating a diverse landscape The property also includes an existing home of approximately 1328 sqft. It has three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, an attached 2-car garage, and a barn, all of which would benefit from maintenance and updates. The hunting opportunities on this property are outstanding. From the moment you start exploring the acreage, it's clear this property offers the habitat, food, water, and security cover deer and other wildlife seek. The sheer amount of deer sign throughout the property is hard to ignore. Rubs and scrapes are scattered across the acreage, and while photographing and walking the property, we observed multiple deer, along with grouse, waterfowl, pheasants, and turkeys. The cornfields' location is particularly impressive. Quality cover surrounds the fields, allowing deer to move between bedding and feeding areas while staying close to security cover. Approximately 75 acres are tillable, offering potential agricultural income and an opportunity to lease the tillable ground. Christmas Lake and Skunk River add another important component to the property, providing water close to where deer and other wildlife spend their time. The river corridor has also held a variety of waterfowl. For those who appreciate the challenge of managing and potentially harvesting a mature Minnesota whitetail, the property's location is worth noting. Morrison County ranks No. 1 in Minnesota for total Pope & Young record-book whitetail deer entries, with 224 recorded entries, according to bowhunting data compiled by Realtree. That statistic speaks to the caliber of whitetail hunting in the county and provides an impressive backdrop for a property with this much habitat diversity and visible deer activity. What really sets this property apart, however, is how all these features come together. Food, water, bedding cover, timber, wetlands, agricultural ground, and natural travel corridors are spread throughout the property. The result is a landscape that offers numerous ways to hunt and enjoy the outdoors, with opportunities to pursue deer, bear, waterfowl, pheasants, grouse, and turkey, along with numerous other wildlife. And there is still room to make it even better. The existing habitat and hunting layout provide an excellent foundation, while additional habitat improvements, strategic food plots, trail work, or other management practices could further enhance the property's hunting potential. The property is conveniently located near several lakes in the area, including Sullivan Lake (±2.4 miles), Platt Lake (±4 miles), and Mille Lacs Lake (±9 miles). It lies south of Sullivan and Platt Lakes and west of Mille Lacs Lake, with the Twin Cities metropolitan area about 1.5 hours to the south.
