About this House
If you've been searching for an affordable Northern Michigan hunting property with everything already in place, this 80-acre gem east of West Branch, just outside Prescott, deserves a close look. Tucked away at the end of a quiet, dead-end road and accessed by a long, well-maintained private drive, this property offers the seclusion, privacy, and habitat that serious hunters dream about.
Surrounded by agricultural fields in every direction, this parcel serves as the primary sanctuary and bedding cover for local wildlife. With food all around the property and some of the best cover in the area, deer, turkey, bear, and countless other species naturally funnel through and spend time on this land. Existing food plots are already established, making it ready to hunt from day one.
The terrain is exceptionally diverse, featuring a beautiful mix of mature timber, rolling ridges, ravines, and thick cover that create ideal wildlife habitat and excellent hunting setups. Whether you're a bowhunter looking for strategic stand locations or simply enjoy managing wildlife, you'll appreciate the property's natural layout and potential.
A solid cabin waiting for the next owner to complete the interior to their own taste and vision. The structure is extremely well built and provides an outstanding foundation for a future hunting camp, weekend getaway, or recreational retreat.
Beyond the property itself, the location places you in the heart of Northern Michigan's outdoor recreation. Enjoy easy access to countless rivers, inland lakes, state trails, campgrounds, golf courses, and year-round outdoor activities throughout the West Branch area.

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is crazy they be letting them kid yell the n word (white kids) with a black kid in there and the teacher did something, the bullying is awful and much of the kid in 8 to 11 are the worst, the teacher usually just put a video on for the students to watch, there is no 1 on 1 learning and they don't even help you when you ask for help I was told no I tried of helping you spell when I asked for help with Coca-Cola, I had Coke and could had got in troubl, it was for a field trip, this school is the reason I can't spell good because in 1-3 grade them would put a cartoon on for us to learn, no teaching just that show, every time someone would fight me I would get in trouble because the kid family was friends with the president, there is no oversight on anything like the computer someone I talked to send me anime corn and only got talk to because I let the teacher know, they food is awful the food you get at party are 5 times better then the one at lunch and that is only because it is real meat that wasn't made on a open air fryer, everything you want in a school is not here, Im not a loud student who have okay grade and was nice to everyone so no it wasn't like I was a bad kid who is mad because I got a called home I really metit when I say don't go hereStudent Review6mo ago
