Property Description

40± Acre Hunting Property With Diverse Habitat In Mecosta County This is a property built for the hunter, with years of management and an established layout that brings food, cover, natural travel and hunting locations together across the acreage. Rather than simply having good habitat, the property has been set up to take advantage of how wildlife moves between each part of the landscape. Approximately 6.5± acres of open field and tillable ground sit along the higher portion of the property, overlooking a hardwood timber ridge that transitions into a thick cedar and tamarack thicket. Within that heavier cover is a mixture of mossy low ground and drier pockets, creating a natural sanctuary area where wildlife can find security away from the more actively hunted portions of the property. This type of secluded cover is an important part of the overall management plan, giving deer a place to bed, find security and spend more time within the property. Throughout the acreage, natural trails and travel corridors connect the thicker cover, hardwoods and open ground with several distinct food plots. These plots are positioned across the property to create multiple food sources and hunting opportunities rather than relying on a single destination. Several elevated and ground blinds are already in place along these areas, giving the next owner an established framework to hunt the property while continuing to manage it around seasonal deer movement and prevailing conditions. The habitat within the property is complemented by the surrounding landscape. Larger acreage tracts border the property, with agricultural fields located along the eastern and southern sides. This surrounding mix of agriculture, timber and cover adds to the overall habitat available in the area and works well with the property's internal food plots and sanctuary cover. Significant wildlife sign can be found throughout the acreage, and the property has a history of deer management. Whitetails are the primary focus of the setup, while the combination of hardwood timber, open ground and thick cover also provides habitat for turkeys and other wildlife. What makes this property stand out is how everything works together. Higher open ground and food plots provide managed food sources, the hardwood ridge creates natural transitions and travel, and the cedar and tamarack thicket provides thick security cover. Established trails connect these areas, while existing blinds provide multiple hunting locations throughout the property. With deeded access and much of the hunting infrastructure already established, this is a managed piece of land where the habitat and hunting setup have been developed with a clear purpose.
