Land with Home for Sale in Iron River, Michigan

The Red Roof Retreat sits tucked back at the end of Forest Service Road 3112 surrounded by the Ottawa National Forest and Commercial Forest Lands. This property has made memories for the same family for almost 100 years. The original log cabin is the centerpiece for gatherings of family and friends with the fieldstone wood burning fireplace in the living room anchoring one end of the cabin and the beautiful Hickory cabinet kitchen at the other. The fully vaulted ceiling stretches from one end to the other giving this classic log structure a great air of openness. Additional structures have been added over the years to add convenience as well as luxury; from the oversized garage with living quarters and a full bath above it, to the “bath house” with its added sleeping quarters, laundry and another full bathroom to the sauna building. All have been incredibly maintained through the years so they’re ready for the next season of enjoyment. Utilities are provided to the buildings from a drilled well, power is through a professionally installed solar & generator system and a 1000 gallon septic system is in place. This property will check the boxes of your entire family if they’re looking for a wilderness retreat with the convenience of indoor hot & cold running water. Take a short trek through the forest to Pendleton Creek which meanders its way through the Ottawa and is home to native Brook Trout; feed the deer outside the cabin window; ride your bike, atv or snowmobile down endless miles of Ottawa National Forest road and trails. Make this your legacy property to be shared down the generations.
