MICHIGAN COUNTRY LOT WITH POND FOR SALE!! - This 4.75-Acre property is located in Ontonagon Township, in North Central Ontonagon County - in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. - The County is named after the Ontonagon River. - The name derived from an Ojibwa language word Nondon-organ, meaning "hunting river." - A French transliteration, Nantounagon, identified the river on a 1670 French map. - Alternatively, it is said to be derived from the Ojibwa onagon, which means "dish" or "bowl. - The parcel offered for sale is located on a quiet County Road just a half mile south of Lake Superior, and about three miles west of Ontonagon. - M-64 borders the lake Superior shoreline. Recreational homes line the north lakeshore side of M-64, and a mix of seasonal recreational and year-round homes are on the south side. Tourists love this area. - From M-64 there are a number of rural roads that extend south into the wooded areas and inland farmlands. - This area grew out of the lumber boom that occurred along the Lake Superior shore during the 1890s. By the 1920s, the Finnish and eastern European settlers in the area had firmly established their farms. - Lots of logging operations closed down during the Depression. Farming declined after World War II as children moved away to larger communities, and jobs at the White Pine mine drew many away from the fields. - Today there are still agricultural and recreational lands available, including the one offered for sale. - Lake Superior to the north offers boating, swimming and beach combing, and thousands of nearby acres of Corporate CFA and State of Michigan Lands offer opportunities for hunting, trapping, and fishing! - To the east is the northern access to the Ontonagon Multi-Use Trail NR, which provides a wonderful ride southward into the woods of the Ottawa National Forest, a Norwich Bluff site view of multiple Copper mines, and a view of the West Branch of the Ontonagon River. - To the west is the Trail E which goes south and then west to the village of White Pine. This trail is popular for those hoping to see U.P. Black bears that are often seen in the evenings along this ride. - If you are seeking an affordable parcel for your Year Round Home or Seasonal Cabin in the Wonderful Western U.P. come view it today!
