2782 River Ridge Alger, MI 48610

Discover the ultimate private retreat on 66 acres of pristine land with minor frontage on the Tittabawassee River which runs all the way to Secord Lake. Although the Tittabawassee River is presently navigable by small boats, canoes and kayaks, it will become a great waterway again for larger boats once the dam improvements are completed and the river system refills to its previous level. This rare offering includes a ranch-style home with an attached two car garage, two pole barns, and a peaceful pond which has a small stream running through it. It is a true haven for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and anyone seeking seclusion and serenity. Enjoy easy, single level living while the spacious pole barns offer ample room for equipment, workshop space, or recreational storage (one barn can make a great barnominium and has a small crane, two high-end overhead doors with openers and one sliding door). The land offers a perfect mix of hardwoods, evergreen trees and open meadows— ideal for trophy hunting, fishing, and wildlife watching. Whitetail deer, turkey, and other game are abundant. Four high end deer blinds are already in place and are comfortable to sit in for the whole day. Trails wind through the property making it ideal for hiking and provides great ORV use. Access to surrounding state land is via the Lame Duck Grouse trail, which adds unmatched privacy. This 11,000-acre Grouse Enhanced Management Site is Michigan’s largest and provides ideal habitat for American Woodcock and Ruffed Grouse. The residence is dated but fully functional and includes a huge bonus room that has its own wood burning stove. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or weekend escape, this one-of-a-kind property delivers the perfect balance between accommodations, nature, and recreation.
