Legacy Hunting & Investment Estate with Lodge on 773.42± Acres in Central Michigan
This exceptional 773.42± acre property stands as one of Michigan's legacy estates for hunting, recreation, and investment. Located in Arenac County just 3 miles from Au Gres, This property offers the rare combination of total privacy and proximity to high-class Lake Huron recreation. Owners can enjoy the peace and quiet of their own private land while being close enough to explore boating, fishing, and the many offerings of Michigan's Great Lakes region.
