Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Manitou Beach, Michigan
15300 Rome Rd, Manitou Beach, MI 49253
Some properties you can describe. This one, you have to see.
A tree-lined drive winds back off the road, keeping the home tucked away and out of sight until you arrive — the kind of privacy that sets the tone for everything else on this property. The home site is perched atop the hill, taking in views over the pond, pasture, and woods rolling out below. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath house just needs a few updates to become exactly what you want it to be, but the bones and the setting are already there, complete with an attached garage. Around back, a hobby shop offers extra space for projects, tools, or storage, and the frame of an old horse barn still stands — ready to be restored or reimagined by its next owner.
Below the hill, a stocked pond sits ready for an afternoon of fishing or a summer swim with the kids — the kind of spot that makes lifelong memories for a young family. Around it, two acres of mowed open ground are already set up for gatherings, whether that's a cookout with friends, a family reunion, or just a fire under the stars. Scattered fruit trees and open pasture round out the homestead side of the property, giving it that lived-in, cared-for feel.
Then the land shifts into the woods, where the Seeley Drain — a creek — runs through the property, and established ATV and hunting trails wind through mature timber. Deer and turkey move through regularly, and a one-acre field tucked against the tree line is ready to be turned into a food plot. For the outdoorsperson, this is the kind of setup that usually takes years to find.
This property has been in the same family for years, cared for and enjoyed, and now they're ready to hand it off to its next owners to make their own. The family are motivated sellers, ready to pass the property on so someone new can create their own memories here. Just 5 minutes from Devils Lake and Round Lake, you can be on the water in minutes — without an HOA, without the noise of crowded lake life. Have the best of both: easy access to the lakes, and a private 20-acre retreat to come home to.
Opportunities like this don't come around often. Come see it for yourself — schedule your private tour today.
