Rare Pine Mountain Lake opportunity: per seller/assessor information, this offering includes approximately 30.2 acres and approximately 720 feet of shoreline on a premier Northwoods setting just outside Backus. Large contiguous lakefront parcels with this kind of scale and frontage are increasingly hard to come by—ideal for a private legacy estate, secluded retreat, or the chance to explore future subdivision or resort potential.
Mature trees, expansive water frontage, and the privacy that only big acreage can deliver—while still remaining close to the conveniences and recreation that make this area so desirable. Enjoy nearby Rocky Dock City Park for a public boat access, beach, and picnic pavilion, hit the Paul Bunyan State Trail for miles of paved biking and walking, and take advantage of nearby state forest country for even more outdoor adventure.
Bring your vision and walk the land—opportunities like this don’t present often. Acreage and shoreline are approximate; buyers to verify. Any subdivision or build potential is subject to township/county shoreland rules, soils/wetlands review, and all required approvals.
