This gorgeous property has everything you could want, whether you are thinking of building a cabin, a home or hunting lodge. The main focal point is private Heisel Lake, an internal 8-acre lake next to an additional 8 acres of wetlands at its edge, which provides fabulous opportunities for ducks and geese as they move south. To make things even better, the lake is very close to farm fields, often planted with corn, that help create the perfect environment for waterfowl. The views are grand, to say the least. Drive east along W 10th Road to the gate and then mile straight north to the corner of the property. As you look west, you begin to understand why there are so many deer on this land. The road heads west and stays on high ground, along the edge of the field, until it reaches the point where the lake is in sight.

This gorgeous property has everything you could want, whether you are thinking of building a cabin, a home or hunting lodge. The main focal point is private Heisel Lake, an internal 8-acre lake next to an additional 8 acres of wetlands at its edge, which provides fabulous opportunities for ducks and geese as they move south. To make things even better, the lake is very close to farm fields, often planted with corn, that help create the perfect environment for waterfowl. The views are grand, to say the least. Drive east along W 10th Road to the gate and then mile straight north to the corner of the property. As you look west, you begin to understand why there are so many deer on this land. The road heads west and stays on high ground, along the edge of the field, until it reaches the point where the lake is in sight. From that point, drive slowly and watch for deer in the field, the neighbor’s field and in the woods. Now look down the big hill to the lake, the ducks and geese are likely enjoying a peaceful swim. Park your vehicle and quietly walk down the hill to the water’s edge and onto the long dock. As you turn to look in all directions, you will know what privacy is really like. This gated property is located mile north of a dead-end road on a very well-maintained lane that has serviced the property for many years. The Red Oaks, large Red and White Pines and Maples will immediately grab your attention; the forest floor is littered with acorns. Your focus will change as you notice phenomenal deer sign, turkey feathers among the leaves, tell you to slow down just a bit more. There is electricity at the lake and there are countless locations to build. The soil is quite sandy, which is the reason the trees and crops grow so well. Just off the edge of the lake is another 8-acre wetland with fresh shallow water perfect for setting up decoys. It would be hard to imagine the number of waterfowl a person could see when the migration is in full swing. When people imagine what quiet privacy is about, they don’t know that it is this property they are considering. The sunsets from the top of the hill are tremendous, but you won’t know that without finding your way to the property. A 7-acre field is found along the south side of the east parcel and another smaller food plot is found just north. A number of apple trees are strategically located on the property, another reason the deer love this land. Since the elevation changes over 70 feet from high ground to the lake, and with so many hills and valleys, it is easy to hunt with a good-sized group. It does not really matter which direction the wind is blowing, there are many prime places for you to sit on any given day. Hunter success has been extremely good over the years, the deer have everything they need. And since the property starts mile from the road, there is no reason for the deer to be spooky. If you own this property, you will be the envy of your group, you will build a cabin, cottage or home and you will truly know what it is like to make others jealous. For the most accurate description of what this property can provide for you and your family be sure to contact Terry Patrick, the listing agent. This is a dandy, take the time to experience it.
