Property Description
Where the River Whispers: A Private Peninsula in Missaukee County Tucked quietly between Lake City and Houghton Lake lies a rare stretch of Northern Michigan paradise — 10 untouched parcels forming a secluded peninsula with 618 feet of private river frontage on both sides of the West Branch of the Muskegon River. Here, time slows. The gentle current weaves through tall pines and whispering oaks, inviting you to cast a line, launch a kayak, or simply listen to the water roll over stones. This is not just land — it's a canvas for your dream cabin, a quiet escape under the stars, or a one-of-a-kind investment opportunity. A private road (Elm Road) winds through the center of the peninsula, offering easy access to each lot while preserving the peaceful, secluded feel of the land. And as a true Up North bonus, you'll also discover a natural artesian well on the property — a rare and valuable feature for those seeking self-sufficiency or a pure, natural water source. The property is located in the River Lawn Subdivision and has been professionally surveyed, with visible markers in place. Plat Map and Survey are available in the disclosures. With incredible river frontage, ultimate privacy, and untouched potential, this is more than a property — it's a place where memories are waiting to be made. Whether you're seeking solitude, a sanctuary in the woods, or a legacy to pass down through generations, you'll find it here… wrapped in the arms of the river.
