665+/- acres, an established off-grid camp, a 30' x 48' pole barn, miles of trails, and the kind of privacy that is hard to find but easy to enjoy. Located in Luce County west of Newberry near McMillan, this is a substantial recreational holding improved for year-round use.
<> The camp sits just off Co Rd 442 behind two gated entrances, tucked into the woods with a natural buffer from the road. Built in 2010, the 24' x 20' cabin features knotty-pine finishes, a vaulted bunk/dining area, additional sleeping space, and a 12' x 12' loft.
Heat is provided by a 35,000 BTU direct-vent propane wall furnace. A solar-charged EcoFlow power station supplies quiet off-grid electricity through 120V wiring, with a Honda generator for backup. A hand-pump well, propane range, owned 330-gallon propane tank, outhouse, and portable shower with on-demand hot water complete the setup.
<> The nearby 30' x 48' pole barn, built in 2015, offers substantial storage with a gravel floor, two overhead doors, built-in shelving, solar-powered lighting, and maintenance charging. <> Approximately two miles of established trails can be traveled by ATV, side-by-side or snowmobile, with more than half suitable for a conventional 4x4.
Farther south, the property becomes increasingly remote, transitioning from maintained woods roads to seasonal routes and foot access. <> A professional forest-management plan identifies lowland forest, cedar and other conifers, northern hardwoods, white pine, spruce, young regeneration and wetland habitat.
Approximately 58 acres were regenerated through a 2014 timber harvest and now provide young forest cover of red maple, spruce, balsam fir, paper birch and aspen. Higher, drier ground surrounds the camp, while much of the larger holding transitions into lower ground characteristic of this part of the eastern UP.
<> Nearly all of the acreage is enrolled in Michigan's Qualified Forest Program, offering substantial property-tax benefits that may transfer to the next owner without the public-access requirement associated with CFA land. <> Two established openings include an approximately 3/4-acre former food plot with an elevated hunting blind and another roughly 1/2-acre opening.
Additional stands and feeders provide more hunting opportunities. Red Creek and associated drainages cross the southern portion and ultimately connect to the Tahquamenon River system. <> The owners' trail cameras and time on the property have documented moose, black bear, bobcat, deer, grouse, snowshoe hare, fisher, marten, porcupine and abundant birdlife.
<> The property has been enjoyed year-round for hiking, hunting, riding, snowmobiling, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Newberry and Curtis are a short drive away, with extensive ORV/snowmobile opportunities and numerous lakes and rivers nearby. <> For a buyer who wants room to explore, hunt, ride, manage timber, watch wildlife and own a large UP holding that can still feel genuinely remote, this is a rare package.
