This 6.1-acre parcel of Barron County timber is a buildable lot with power at the road and a hunting setup you can use the day you close. Whether you’re planning a cabin, a future home, or a dedicated hunting retreat, this property gives you room to shape it the way you want. The woods are a healthy mix of hardwoods, softwoods, and pines, with thick underbrush that holds deer and gives them the cover they look for in daylight. That dense brush is a big reason a small parcel can hunt bigger than its acreage. Deer feel safe moving through it, and the mix of tree species gives them browse, mast, and shelter as the seasons change. A trail runs from the road back through the timber to a small clearing at the rear of the property, where there’s an established hunting spot. A ladder stand is already in place at the edge of the clearing, so you can slip in quietly from the road and get settled without disturbing the rest of the woods. Because you can reach the stand and leave most of the cover alone, the layout works well on a parcel this size. If you’re thinking about building, the property is fully wooded, so you can pick the spot for your cabin or home and clear only what you need. Electric service is at the road, and a soil report is available for review, giving you a head start on planning a septic system and a building site. Picture a place tucked into the pines, with the trail out back leading to your stand. You could walk out for a morning sit and be back in time for breakfast. Whether you want a weekend getaway, a place to build, or just a piece of northwest Wisconsin woods to call your own, this parcel has a lot to offer in a manageable size.
