Recreational Land for Sale in Alpha, Michigan

Roughly 100 acres encompassing the almost 40 acre Alpha pond as well as part of the Alpha Creek flowing southwesterly into nearby Buck Lake. This property features diversity of terrain with highland ridges overlooking the water rolling down trails into regenerating Aspen growth loaded with wildlife. Scattered apple and oak trees produce fruit and mast crops throughout with hidey hole feeding areas waiting for you to find. Varied shorelines from lily pad and cattail coves to sandy peninsulas will provide you with whatever water adventures you desire...from fishing to floating; hidden boats around the property attest to the attraction. Building sites abound from the ridge-top with its panoramic view and access off a paved county road or tucked in the woods at the water's edge for that "off-the-grid" cabin that few will know even exists. The pond was formed by the Mastodon Iron Mine open pit mine starting in 1882, closed in 19142, and you can still find long abandoned train rail beds and roads lost in the undergrowth now by used by deer, bear and other critters. The adjacent Rec Trail multiplies your adventure opportunities connecting you to ATV/Snowmobile trails throughout the U.P. Additional nearby lakes include renowned Chicagon Lake, Peavy Pond and everything in-between...and after a full day you can relax on the circle at the Alpha Brewing Company "The smallest village in America with a brewery"! Make your appointment today for a guided look at this unique property and all its possibilities.
