Crushed limestone entry drive, electric ran to property previously and the sky is the limit with this not often available type of acreage. ** Property line adjustment has been conditionally approved with municipality, but survey still needs to be completed and property line adjustment application.

This Cass County recreational property offers a combination of habitat, access, cover, and wildlife-management potential that is increasingly difficult to find in southwest Michigan. The property is positioned in an area where agricultural ground, wetland habitat, wooded cover, and established wildlife travel corridors come together, creating a strong setting for hunting, recreation, and long-term land stewardship. The land features a creek/drain, mature trees, thick security cover, open areas, and an established trail system that provides access throughout the tract. Paved road frontage and improved(rocked) driveway and an easement providing secondary access. These access features are essential for hunting, property maintenance, recreation, and potential future improvements. One of the most compelling aspects of this property is its wildlife habitat structure. Thick security cover provides areas where whitetails can move, bed, and remain concealed, while mature maple, walnut, and oak trees contribute to the overall diversity and character of the woods. The combination of mature timber and dense cover gives the property multiple habitat components rather than relying on a single type of acreage. A creek running through the property adds another important natural feature. Water is a valuable component of wildlife habitat and can also enhance the recreational character of the land. The surrounding landscape further strengthens the property's hunting potential, with adjacent wetland and agricultural areas creating natural transitions between cover types. These changes in habitat can concentrate wildlife movement and create travel corridors, funnels, and staging areas that are useful to a hunter studying the property and surrounding terrain. With adjacent vast areas of wetland providing the security necessary to consistently produce mature whitetails. The current owners have already begun improving the property for wildlife management. Mowed and maintained trails provide an established framework for accessing different portions of the land while helping minimize unnecessary disturbance through strategic access. Food plot areas are also in progress, giving the next owner an opportunity to continue the property as a turnkey whitetail hunting setup. With thoughtful placement of food sources, access routes, stand locations, and additional habitat improvements, there is room to further enhance the property's existing wildlife-management strategy. The terrain and surrounding land uses also create opportunities to study and take advantage of known deer travel patterns. Through the seller's reports of mature deer travel routes, we have strategically laid out a food plot plan with the property considering surrounding habitats. Rather than making assumptions about future wildlife activity, buyers can use the existing trails, cover, wetland edges, agricultural transitions, and terrain features as a foundation for their own habitat and hunting plan. For the recreational landowner, the property provides more than hunting potential. The maintained trail network can be used for hiking, wildlife observation, property management, and outdoor recreation. The mix of woods, creek, open ground, and dense cover creates a varied landscape to explore throughout the seasons. The potential build site also adds another layer of flexibility, subject to local zoning, soil conditions, setbacks, utilities, permits, and all applicable governmental approvals. The location is another major consideration. Marcellus is a small community in Cass County with convenient access to the surrounding southwest Michigan recreational landscape. Cass County is known for its lakes, parks, trails, forests, waterways, and outdoor recreation opportunities. County information notes more than 100 lakes throughout the county, along with multiple public parks and recreational destinations. Nearby Fred Russ Forest Park, located east of Dowagiac along Marcellus Highway, provides hiking, equestrian trails, cross-country skiing, fishing, and canoe access, adding to the area's broader recreational appeal. This property should be considered by buyers looking for a southwest Michigan hunting property with established access, diverse habitat, a creek, mature timber, thick security cover, and opportunities for continued wildlife improvements. The combination of paved road frontage, an improved drive, secondary access, established trails, food plot development, and surrounding wetland and agricultural habitat gives the property a strong foundation for continued recreational and hunting use. Properties with this combination of existing improvements and habitat potential do not frequently become available in the Marcellus area. Whether the goal is to pursue whitetails, improve wildlife habitat, establish food plots, enjoy private outdoor recreation, or explore a future homesite, this Cass County property provides a versatile base for the next landowner to continue taking the tract to the next level.
