Absolutely stunning custom new construction home, complete with a pole building and workshop hidden in the rear of this diverse 4.5-acre parcel with gentle rolling hills, mature trees, easy maintenance landscaping, and lots of natural sunlight both at the home and outbuildings. This main floor living home is the guest house to the estate property, also for sale next door (MLS 479947), but completely private; you only see trees and nature in every direction. The actual home is only 2 years old, was custom-built by the current owners, and every detail was done with care. From the open concept main floor living area, custom cabinetry, sun-drenched concrete patio, A/C, whole house generator, large primary suite, including laundry and walk-in closet... too many details to list here.  Located just minutes from two Walloon Lake boat launches and only 10 minutes to Petoskey, this is ideal as a year-round, vacation, or retirement home and is really a condominium alternative. (No HOA dues, though) The lower level has an ingress/egress window already in place, generous ceiling heights, and is fully insulated, making it ready for whatever your needs may be.  More beds and a bath?  Hobby Room? Home Office? There are a multitude of ways to economically configure the space to suit your needs and double the square footage. As for the workshop, it's not visible from the home, and is a short drive down your own bucolic, well-graded gravel drive, and offers multiple buildings and open space. Currently set up as a sawmill and woodworking shop, it would make great boat/toy storage and is heated, a real home away from home, but only a few hundred yards from your main residence. This is not your old farmhouse or 1980s year-round residence that needs to be completely redone in the country. Everything has been thoughtfully taken care of; just bring your personal belongings and get ready to reconnect with nature the way Northern is supposed to be enjoyed. Call today for a private tour.

For the hunter, the outdoor enthusiast, or anyone dreaming of true Northern Michigan acreage, 5436 E Gill Road offers 150 wooded acres thoughtfully designed for recreation, wildlife, and adventure. Miles of groomed trails wind through the property, connecting several established food plots and a mature orchard, while a large pole barn provides ample space to store equipment, ATVs, and all your outdoor gear. The property hosts a genuinely diverse population of game — whitetail deer and mature bucks, black bear, wild turkey, and ruffed grouse all call this land home, making it a true year-round hunting destination rather than a single-season retreat. The Carp Lake River winds directly through the property, adding another dimension for fishing, trapping, or simply enjoying the sound of running water. While the land is the star, the home is far more than a hunting cabin. This exceptionally well-maintained 1,230 square foot residence offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with an additional flex room that could easily become a third bedroom. Move-in ready and thoughtfully cared for, this is a home you can settle into immediately — whether as a hunting basecamp, a year-round residence, or a private retreat away from it all. Nearby Carp Lake / Lake Paradise is popular fishing destination, and Wilderness State Park — with its 26 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline and thousands of acres of trails, dunes, and forest — is just minutes away. Mackinaw City and the Mackinac Bridge are a short drive north, putting the Straits of Mackinac, Lake Huron, and endless additional recreation within easy reach. Properties offering this combination of acreage, game diversity, water access, and a genuinely move-in ready home are exceedingly rare in Northern Michigan. Whether you are searching for the ultimate hunting property or simply craving space, privacy, and a true up-north lifestyle.

Welcome to this quintessential Original Bliss Log Home in the amazing Hidden Gem of Goodhart, the Sequoia Yacht Club, a small association that shares 328 feet of the most pristine west-facing Lake Michigan frontage that you will find. Everything about the vintage Bliss Cottage is authentic, from the local stone floor to the vaulted-ceiling fireplace to the unmistakable exterior aesthetic with original shutters and a great screened-in porch for extra dining, reading, or entertaining space, complete with a wood-burning stove for the shoulder seasons. Inside, you will find 2 main-floor bedrooms, laundry, and a full bath on the main floor, plus a classic Northern Michigan sleeping loft with an additional bathroom. 9770 Hemlock Trail is being offered "turnkey," including everything, and the current owners do lightly short-term rent when not using it, which is allowed in this association, so if you wanted to defray the cost of ownership, everything is set up and ready to start monetizing. The house is Northern Michigan perfect; the real star, though, is the beach, sugar sand and enormous, with an association rack to store paddle boards or kayaks and all just a short walk from the home. In addition, there are nature trails and unique pathways for kids and adults to meander away from any traffic and M-119 for quiet enjoyment of the woods, the way Northern Michigan used to be and is supposed to be. Appointment required and contingent upon tenants, so if you wish to schedule a private tour, please allow some lead time.
