This pristine 40 acre property is located minutes from the Town of Lakewood on a dead end road near the Battle Creek Nature Area. This area has so much to offer with miles of ATV/UTV and snowmobile opportunities and add in close access to the Oconto River and multiple lakes nearby it’s a recreational dream. Located on a dead-end road it is secluded and quiet. The woods consist of red and white oaks aspen, norway and red pine, balsam, jack pine, soft maple, ash trees and birch.
Walking this property was amazing. It went from thick cover to open spaces where you could plant a small food plot. This property is a blank slate for a new owner to put their own stamp on it. It was amazing as I walked through it to see the rolling topography and multiple game trails cris crossing the landscape. This property has been in the Sellers family since 1956 and they have enjoyed decades of great memories. Now it’s time for another family to create those same great memories.
Seller and family members have enjoyed many successful deer hunts over the years and even harvested a 450 pound bear off this amazing property. As I walked through the woods, I kicked up Grouse and seen turkeys running for cover. The Southeastern corner and the Northern property line abut thousands of acres of public land which can allow you to give your property a rest or invite friends and family to come and hunt with you. There is an open area ideal for parking a camper, putting up tents for gatherings or just sitting by the campfire listening to the sound of silence.

Battle Creek is a wonderful nature area at the end of Murphy Road for hiking among the natural beauty and has historical significance. It’s named Battle Creek because of the Native American battle that occurred there between the Menominee and Ojibwa Tribes. As you walk through the area you may notice depressions on the ground. Those were dug by the Menominee to lay in wait for the invading Ojibwa.
