80 VL Mackinaw Trail

Rare opportunity to own 80 acres of prime Northern Michigan recreational land, surrounded by expansive public and state land, offering unmatched privacy and direct access to thousands of acres to explore. Tucked just north of Cadillac and within close proximity to Long Lake, this property delivers the true “Up North” experience. The land is predominantly high and dry, featuring a stunning shared pond along the rear boundary with state land—an exceptional natural feature that enhances both the beauty and usability of the property. Rolling terrain, oak trees, and a thoughtfully managed timber harvest preserve excellent habitat, creating ideal conditions for wildlife. Abundant cover and natural forage make this a highly desirable hunting parcel. Enrolled in the Commercial Forest Program, this property benefits from significantly reduced taxes—currently approximately $110 annually—making it an incredibly cost-effective long-term investment. Buyers seeking a recreational retreat will appreciate the advantage of maintaining this designation while enjoying the land for hunting and outdoor recreation. A network of existing logging trails winds throughout the property, providing a strong foundation for further development. Whether you envision a secluded hunting camp, private getaway, or a future horse or recreational camp, the possibilities here are outstanding. Selectively clearing a small area could create the perfect food plot while maintaining the natural cover deer and wildlife thrive in. This is a quiet, secluded setting with exceptional character—where you can ride, hunt, explore, and truly disconnect, all while being just a short drive from Cadillac.
