    Description

    Outstanding opportunity to own 60 acres of prime hunting and recreational land in Southwest Michigan with multiple potential building sites. This property is rich with deer and turkey, featuring established game trails throughout. Rolling timber and the scenic Brandywine Creek winding through the acreage provide ideal habitat to attract, hold, and strategically hunt wildlife. The diverse cover also presents future timber harvest potential for added long-term value. Build your dream home or private weekend retreat. Perfect for hunting, hiking, ATV riding, and snowmobiling. Ideally located between South Haven and St. Joseph, with convenient access to Lake Michigan beaches, local farm markets, and I-196, you'll enjoy seclusion without sacrificing accessibility. Existing structure has no value and is in tear-down condition.
    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from May 29, 2026

      "There is no public transit in this area. However, almost everything is within walking distance if you don't have your own car. But since I do have my own car, it's not an issue."

      "I live 1 mile from down town Covert. The area has been depressed in the past but is improving each year. There are few opportunities for shopping or restaurants, but Covert is within 10 miles of South Haven, Coloma, and Watervliet for every day shopping. It is within 20-45 miles of larger towns for more shopping, eating and entertainment options and within 60 miles of Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Holland, South Bend and within 2 hours of the Chicago area. We are less than 4- 7 miles from camping, state park, and public beaches on Lake Michigan. It is a lovely area to live."
