The southern shore of Lake Superior is America’s North Coast, the only American coast unaffected by hurricanes and rising ocean levels. Superior holds an astonishing 10% of the world’s fresh water. This is a lake with the power and feel of an ocean. From a kayak the water is so clear you can see bottom 50 feet down as you float over massive boulders below. This is some of the finest waterfront land that I have seen.

This property presents a symphony of features unique on the south shore of Lake Superior in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. First feature among equals is this one: a mile of Lake Superior shoreline, part fine sand beach, part granite coastline, including a high granite point covered with pines, reaching into Superior. Views from that point are stunning. The long arc of a perfect sand beach sweeps miles to the northwest with nothing but pines along the shore and hardwoods behind. Turn eastward and there’s a totally different long view of rock bays, points, islands, and a mountainous shoreline reminiscent of California's Big Sur, where fingers of granite reach into the lake to become small rock islands offshore.

Gulls bank and dive overhead, storm clouds and fog banks sweep across the lake, crashing waves wash the shore and ore boats pass in the night, bound for distant ports. This combination of a scenic mountain lake and Lake Superior, with high, beautifully timbered land between and a river on the property, is rare.

Several structures and lots of history come with the property. See a video and abundant detail at http://miwaterfront.com/properties/inland-lakes/hunter-lodge/hunter-lodge-presentation/.

Usually Superior is calm but there’s a wind today and I can hear the lake. It’s a sound like no other and I’ve never lived far from it. This is a place with beauty, power, and magic. Come spend a day and see for yourself. Take a deep breath. Mother Nature conditions the air, and it smells of pine.
