17402 Firesteel Rd Ontonagon, MI 49953
52 acres of Upper Peninsula opportunity, minutes from Lake Superior and the Porcupine Mountains. This Firesteel Rd property offers something increasingly hard to find in the U.P.: a good size, private parcel with year-round county-maintained road access, in a location that puts you close to one of Michigan's most visited outdoor destinations.
The Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, Michigan's largest state park, with old-growth forest, Lake Superior shoreline, and miles of hiking and ski trails, sits just up the road. Ontonagon itself has become a genuine draw for tourists and seasonal visitors, and this property puts you right in that orbit without paying a premium for it.
The property also includes a barn estimated at 150 years old, a rare piece of Upper Peninsula history dating to the area's early mining-era settlement. It's a candidate for restoration as a standout outbuilding, or for reclaimed barn wood salvage, a market where hand-hewn beams and aged siding carry real value.
While there's an existing 1937 structure on-site with a full basement, this property is really an opportunity: a blank canvas to design and build the U.P. home or cabin you actually want, on over 52 private acres with a pond, mixed woods, and Cave Creek nearby. Whether you're picturing a year-round residence, a hunting camp, or a rental investment near the Porkies, the land does the heavy lifting here.
52.14 acres | Year-round county road access | On-site pond | Historic ~150-year-old barn | Minutes to Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park | Near Lake Superior | Existing structure with basement (as-is)
