This 39+ acre property is located in Ishpeming Township, in central Marquette County. If access to "the great outdoors" is what you want, this would be a great starting off point. The property is located south of the western end of the Dead River Storage Basin. This is an impoundment of the Dead River which forms a 3,274 acre lake that sprawls across a long area north of Ishpeming and Negaunee to the west, and to the Marquette County in the east. This lake has lots of bays, points, and drop-offs and is home to Northern pike, Yellow perch, Walleyes, and some of the best U.P. Smallmouth bass are caught in the western end of this water body! A State Owned boat access site is only a few miles from this property. If stream fishing is on your "wish list", just two miles to the southeast of this parcel is an historic fish stocking site at the intersection of Deer Lake Road, and the Little Dead River. The neighbor to the west of this property is the Escanaba River State Forest, which is has forested land in four U.P. Counties. Here are more opportunities for hiking, canoeing, fishing and hunting! Trees common in the area include: Balsam fir, Eastern hemlock, Eastern white pine, Jack pine, Northern red oak, Paper birch, Quaking aspen, Red maple, Red pine, Sugar maple and White spruce.
