Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Newberry, Michigan

Extraordinary legacy acreage north of Newberry in the heart of Michigan’s wild Two Hearted country — with legal, insurable access, a private inland lake, professionally managed timber, established internal roads, and direct proximity to Lake Superior, the legendary Two Hearted River, and bordering over 256,000 acres of adjoining State Land. Properties of this caliber and scale rarely become available in this tightly held region of the Upper Peninsula. Tucked into one of the most sought-after recreational corridors in Northern Michigan, this 120± acre tract offers a rare combination of privacy, habitat diversity, long-term stewardship, and authentic Northwoods character. The land has been thoughtfully managed under a professional forest management plan with an emphasis on wildlife habitat, long-term forest health, regeneration, aesthetics, and future timber value — creating a property that feels intentional rather than disturbed. The result is exceptional habitat diversity across rolling terrain that transitions between regenerating cover, mature timber, towering white pine, uncommon northern oak ridges, and lowland bedding areas attractive to deer, bear, grouse, and other wildlife. Existing interior roads and trails provide excellent access throughout the property for hunting, trail riding, exploration, or future camp development. At the north side of the property lies a secluded private inland lake surrounded by timber and protected habitat, creating a setting that feels remarkably remote and untouched. Combined with the massive adjoining public land access, this property effectively recreates much larger than its surveyed acreage. This parcel is enrolled in Michigan’s Qualified Forest Program (QFP), offering significant property tax advantages while maintaining private recreational ownership — notably without the mandatory public access requirements associated with CFA land. The location is exceptional. Just minutes away are Lake Superior shoreline access points, the Reed & Green Bridge launch, and the famed Two Hearted River system known for fishing, paddling, wildlife, and some of the most iconic wilderness scenery in the Midwest. Whether your vision is a private hunting retreat, legacy family holding, conservation-minded investment, or an off-grid Northwoods escape, this is the type of property that is increasingly difficult to duplicate in today’s market.
