Cedar, Michigan, 49621

Wildlife, Wonder, and Opportunity. Rarely does a property of this scale and uniqueness become available. Encompassing approximately 355 acres (200 acres of fenced-in wilderness) this offering represents the wildlife preserve portion of Cedar Creek Ranch, a private sanctuary where nature, recreation, and vision come together. Protected by 10-foot woven-wire fencing, the preserve features diverse terrain ranging from rolling pasture, to hardwood ridges, cedar swamp, and lowland areas. Victoria Creek winds through the property, creating a habitat that supports various wildlife and adds to the property's untamed beauty. Once operating as a hunting ranch, the preserve remains home to a privately owned deer herd and retains a transferable DNR/Department of Agriculture permit. Hunting blinds, feeders, hay racks, and supporting infrastructure remain in place, providing a strong foundation for continued wildlife management, conservation efforts, or future recreational uses. At the center of the operation sits the 30 x40 Elk Building and Trophy Office, showcasing the property's hunting heritage and offering workspace, storage and views over the preserve. A 40 x 80 Heated Pole Barn and additional accessory buildings allow for equipment and feed storage and provide the infrastructure necessary to maintain and manage the land. With no conservation easements in place, the future is yours to define. Continue its legacy as a private wildlife preserve, create a recreational destination, establish a conservation-focused retreat, develop a unique outdoor experience, or simply enjoy the privacy and freedom that 355 contiguous acres provide. Located in the heart of Leelanau County, just minutes from Cedar and within easy reach of Traverse City and Cherry Capital Airport, this is a truly uncommon opportunity to own a large-scale recreational property in one of Northern Michigan's most desirable regions. For greater options, the adjacent home estate is available. See MLS#1946240
