Some woodland properties are purchased for recreation or hunting. Some are purchased for privacy. Some are purchased for the sustainable lifestyle they make possible. This property offers all three. Located in Richville, Minnesota, this extraordinary 48.3-acre property was thoughtfully designed and developed around the Permaculture principles of sustainability, resilience, energy independence, accessibility, and long-term livability. With nearly 800 feet of shoreline on secluded Lake Alice — a pristine spring-fed lake with no public access — the setting offers a level of privacy and quiet that has become increasingly rare. It is a three hour drive from Minneapolis, MN or 1.5 hour drive from Fargo, ND in rural Ottertail County MN, which has more natural lakes than any other county in the world. It is located in one of the few places on earth that is benefiting from the warmer and wetter climate change that is projected for the region. The land itself is part of a larger wildlife habitat that is a blend of wooded acreage, open meadows, productive growing space, trails, shoreline, and carefully planned infrastructure. What makes this property unique is not simply the collection of features, but the way everything was intentionally designed to work together towards sustainability. From the beginning, the Master Architect/owner wanted a sustainable property for himself and his family for many generations to come. He approached the property with the philosophy that true sustainability requires redundancy and adaptability. All critical systems were designed with backup capability and long-term functionality in mind. The result is a property that feels both highly practical and deeply connected to the surrounding environment. THE HOME The main residence (Lakehouse) is a two-level lakefront home connected by a stairway and a two-sided elevator, allowing easy wheelchair access between levels and creating long-term functionality for a wide range of uses, ages and mobility needs. The home functions as a 3 bedroom, 2 full bathroom residence, or two separate suites with flexible spaces suitable for guests, multi-generational living, hobby use, office space, meeting/gathering space, or rental opportunities. The upper level (Lakeview Suite) has a wall of windows under a dramatic LED lit cathedral ceiling overlooking Lake Alice. Large south-facing glass walls were carefully positioned to maximize passive solar heat gain during the winter months while capturing lake views and natural light throughout the day. During the summer, strategically positioned solar awnings help shade the home while still preserving views of the lake and surrounding forest. The lower level (Garden Suite) was specifically designed to function as both a comfortable living space and a highly energy-efficient thermal environment. Dark-stained concrete floors absorb winter sunlight and help regulate temperatures naturally. A wood-fired cook stove provides cooking, baking, space heating, and supplemental hydronic heating, plus heat for the sauna. Adjacent masonry heat-storage walls absorb heat and gradually distribute it into the home and sauna area. Integrated colored glass bricks provide a soothing natural glow in the sauna. The overall feel of the home is warm, functional, simple and intentional. Rather than using cheap mass-produced materials or trendy finishes, the property was built using durable systems and materials chosen for reliability, longevity and sustainability. Copper plumbing was used instead of PVC. Rock wool insulation was selected over fiberglass. Bentonite waterproofing replaced plastic membranes in key areas. Stainless steel fasteners, hardware and piping and long-lasting materials were prioritized throughout the project. The home also includes: * Electric range and refrigerator/freezers * Instant Hot/Cold drinking water dispensers * Iron water filtration * Secondary drinking water filtration * Heat-o-lator equipped fireplace * High-speed fiber optic internet service * High efficiency LED lighting throughout * Smart home programmable lighting controls * Seven-zone Sonos audio system (Option) * Ventilation ducting and domestic water piping that allow upper level winter shutdown. * Ground-source heat pump system for - Whole house ventilation, heating and air conditioning - Hydronic in-floor heating - Whole-house domestic hot water * Remote wifi controllable HVAC systems. * Wheelchair accessible bathrooms and living spaces * Accessible infrastructure throughout * Accessible Sauna with both wood and electric heat sources * Hidden In-floor safe * Andersen thermopane windows and doors * Cross-ventilation design for natural cooling/airflow * Detached, insulated, two-car garage/workshop with attached lumber storage shed * Wood-burning garage/workshop stove * Power ventilation in Garage * EV charging station in Garage * Remote controlled power overhead garage door operators * Wrap around Lakeview Suite deck with gates for pets and little kids plus a connected treehouse. * Pervious concrete walkways that reduce edge erosion and increase traction in winter * Detached firewood storage for pallets of firewood that can be rolled to the house. * A secure stairway closure system allows the upper and lower levels of the home to be separated for winterization, privacy, guest use, or potential rental arrangements. Outside, the property becomes even more impressive. Decks and patios surround the house, providing views in all directions. Eagles, geese, owls, swans, and loons are only some of the many birds that call Lake Alice home. The treehouse that is attached to the deck provides kids, adults and even wheelchair users with a unique outpost in the trees to watch the deer, turkeys, fox, bear and other animals as they pass through the yard on the wildlife migration route which takes them around Lake Alice and the much larger, connected Dead Lake. THE LAND The land itself is equally impressive. For hundreds of generations, Ojibwe and Lakota Sioux people recognized the sacred value of the lands, waters and non-human beings in this area. They fought over it, cared for it and still cherish it to this day. The current owners have tried to follow their lead in caring for the land and waters. They hope to sell it to new stewards who share that commitment to the earth. The property includes approximately 13 acres of mixed hardwood forest that provide wildlife habitat, natural beauty, and renewable firewood resources. There are many maple trees that have been tapped for syrup in the past. The southeast corner of the property is a wetland that supports a wide array of water fowl and amphibians, as well as being a water source for mammals in the area. Trails wind through the property for hiking, exploring, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing during the winter months. In total, approximately three miles of trails have been created throughout the acreage. The shoreline on Lake Alice remains natural and relatively undisturbed, preserving the quiet character of a northwoods lake and supporting local wildlife. There is a small shore-edge platform and floating swimming raft on the property. Because the lake has no public access, boat traffic is minimal, creating a peaceful setting for swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, or simply enjoying the water. Lake Alice is known locally as a quality fishing lake with bass and other game fish. A beaver lodge can be seen across the lake. The property is at the headwaters of the larger Ottertail watershed system that eventually flows north to Hudson’s Bay. THE FOOD FOREST In 2021, approximately 25 acres of former hayfield were transformed into meadow and Food Forest areas, including ~6.25 acres of tillable land. Around 500 hardwood and fruit-bearing trees were lovingly planted by nearly 100 friends and neighbors who recognized the importance and value of planting trees for rejuvenating the planet. Balsam Fir, Black Walnut, Black Cherry, Chokecherry, Sugar Maple, American Plum, Red Oak, Black Chokeberry, White Cedar and Tamarack trees were planted with attention to soil, orientation, water flow, forest/meadow edge habitat creation, and long-term ecological diversity. The fruit trees are now beginning to reach the age when they are producing fruit. The result is a landscape that continues to mature and evolve naturally over time, attracting and nurturing wildlife and providing food for the occupants. YEAR-ROUND FOOD PRODUCTION One of the most important sustainability features of the property is the Deep Winter Greenhouse (DWG) and adjacent outdoor garden system. This gives the owners the ability to produce year-round reliable food that they know is safe to eat. The DWG is a slight modification of Version 2.2 plans published by the Center for Sustainable Building Research of the University of Minnesota School of Architecture in 2017. Unlike many seasonal greenhouses, Deep Winter Greenhouses are designed specifically for year-round growing in northern Minnesota conditions without auxiliary heat. The DWG uses an integrated underground rock-bed thermal storage system combined with triple-wall polycarbonate glazing and passive solar principles to regulate temperature naturally. According to the owners, the greenhouse has operated year-round without auxiliary heat and reportedly remains above approximately 41 degrees even during the coldest winter conditions using only small air circulation fans. The greenhouse includes: * Integrated heat sink rock bed with ventilation ducts, manifolds and small in-line fans. * Ability to separate the growing room into two separate spaces for polonization. * Triple-glazed polycarbonate south wall. * Super-insullated side walls and roof. * Power operated ventilation windows. * Industrial Dehumidifier * Work room with sink and workbench. * Concrete floor with Floor drains. * Well water supply. * Rainwater collectio

Located a short drive northeast of Fergus Falls, on County Road 1 and a township road, this diverse Otter Tail County property gives you the opportunity to build, hunt, farm, and recreate all in one package. Properties like this can be difficult to find close to Fergus Falls. It's small enough to remain affordable, yet large enough to give you plenty of options. Couple the size with the location, price, buildability, and hunting potential, and I think you'll be hard-pressed to find a better value on the market. For starters, the property is made up of three key components: open field, mature woods, and low grassy willow cover. The timber includes mature oak, aspen, basswood, and other species, while the northwest corner provides the type of thick bedding and security cover whitetails love. One thing that really stands out when you study the aerial is how the timber creates a natural funnel. Deer traveling east to west or north to south have to move through this property if they want to stay in cover. Add agricultural fields bordering the property to the north and west, an alfalfa field on the south portion of this property, bedding cover in the northwest corner, and water on the property, and you have food, water, bedding, and security cover all working together. An extensive trail system is already in place, providing good access throughout the property and allowing you to slip in and out quietly. The layout sets up well for both bow and rifle hunting, and this area is known for excellent deer and turkey hunting. Access is another plus. You can utilize the existing easement access shown by the purple line on the property map, or there is potential to establish your own access directly from the township road. If building is part of your plans, this could make an excellent location for a future home while maintaining a quick commute to Fergus Falls. Build your home, manage the acreage, and have the ability to hunt right out your back door. Or simply keep it as a recreational and hunting property and enjoy everything the land already offers. Affordable acreage close to Fergus Falls with mature timber, agricultural ground, established trails, build potential, and a legitimate hunting setup doesn't hit the market every day. If you've been looking for an Otter Tail County property that offers a lot without requiring you to buy a massive tract of land, you need to check this one out.

Every once in a while, I get the opportunity to list a property that is difficult to describe. This 161.7 acre property in Otter Tail County is one of those properties. Quite honestly, this is one of the best all-around recreational properties I've had the privilege of listing. I've walked a lot of hunting and recreational land over the years, and you would be hard-pressed to find another property that checks this many boxes in one package. For starters, the terrain and habitat are simply outstanding. Rolling hills covered with mature oak timber transition into food plots, ponds, lakes, open ground, and pockets of thick cover. The diversity makes the property incredibly enjoyable to explore, but more importantly, from a hunting standpoint, it creates the food, water, bedding cover, travel corridors, and edge habitat that wildlife needs. The deer hunting potential is tremendous. Multiple destination food plots have already been established, along with smaller killing plots strategically positioned throughout the property. Several enclosed hunting stands are also in place, giving you a great head start from day one. Combine those improvements with the rolling terrain, mature timber, water, and natural transitions, and there are hunting opportunities throughout the property. And the trail camera history backs it up. This property has produced pictures of quality bucks and has all the ingredients necessary to consistently hold deer. Turkey and black bear are also found in the area, and the combination of water and upland habitat creates additional opportunities for waterfowl and pheasant hunting. It is rare to find one property that can offer this many different hunting opportunities. Then there is the water. Multiple ponds and lakes are located on or associated with the property, creating a recreational component that takes this tract to another level. Larson Lake offers excellent fishing, and I'm not exaggerating when I say there have been times I've been out there when it seemed like we caught a fish nearly every cast. Bass and perch provide plenty of action, whether you're seriously fishing or simply spending an afternoon on the water with family and friends. A brand-new pontoon with a 60 HP motor and trolling motor is included, along with a brand-new pier and dock system. That means the next owner can start enjoying the lake immediately instead of spending the first year getting everything set up. Another interior pond or small lake is shared with only one adjoining landowner. It currently holds minnows and appears to offer enough depth that there may be potential for additional fish management in the future, subject, of course, to applicable Minnesota regulations and cooperation with the adjoining landowner. One of the other ponds is currently being utilized for raising shiners. Under the existing arrangement, the owner receives shiners for personal use along with hunting access to the adjoining 40 acres. That is a unique arrangement that adds another interesting element to an already diverse property. The infrastructure here is another feature that really stands out to me. Power has been trenching throughout most of the property, water lines have been run throughout most of the property, and there is an existing well. Those improvements would be expensive and time-consuming to recreate from scratch and open up a number of possibilities for the next owner. Several excellent building sites are located throughout the acreage, whether your plans include a hunting cabin, recreational retreat, or year-round residence. Access is also excellent, with frontage along both Highway 210 and County Road 47. Having multiple access points on a property of this size can be extremely valuable, not only for everyday use but also when considering hunting access, wind direction, habitat management, equipment, and future building plans. What I appreciate most about this property is that you don't have to choose between great hunting and great fishing. You don't have to choose between mature timber and water. You don't have to choose between a recreational property and a place with legitimate building potential. It's all here. Spend a fall morning chasing whitetails among the mature oak ridges, an afternoon fishing Larson Lake, and an evening overlooking a food plot. Hunt turkeys in the spring, fish throughout the summer, chase waterfowl or pheasants when the seasons open, and enjoy the property throughout the entire year. With 161.7 deeded acres and approximately 162.85 GIS acres, there is enough ground here to manage habitat, establish multiple hunting setups, enjoy the water, and still have room to make the property your own. Pictures and aerial maps will certainly get your attention, but I truly believe this is one of those properties you need to experience in person to fully appreciate. The rolling terrain, mature oaks, water, wildlife, established improvements, and overall beauty of the land are difficult to capture in a listing. I've had the privilege of walking and selling a lot of great recreational properties, and this one stands out. If you're looking for a premier Otter Tail County hunting and recreational property that offers outstanding whitetail habitat, fishing, multiple water features, mature timber, established food plots, infrastructure, and several potential building sites, you will be hard-pressed to find another property that offers this much in one package.

Have you been searching for lakefront acreage on a quiet, underdeveloped lake where you can enjoy excellent fishing, peaceful sunrises and sunsets, and still have enough land to hunt right out your back door? Properties like this are incredibly hard to find, and when they do hit the market, they are often priced far beyond what most buyers can justify. This Otter Tail County property is the exception. Located between Ashby and Dalton, this exceptional 30 acre property offers approximately 400 feet of quality shoreline on beautiful Sewell Lake. Opportunities to own acreage and lakeshore together at an affordable price point in this area are becoming increasingly rare. Whether you are looking for a future homesite, weekend getaway, hunting retreat, or investment in Minnesota lake property, this tract checks nearly every box. The property is divided by the township road, with approximately 13 acres located on the lakeside and roughly 17 acres situated on the back side of the road. The lake-side acreage provides excellent access to the water along with ample room for a future boathouse, storage building, or additional improvements. The shoreline offers the ability to fully enjoy everything Sewell Lake has to offer while still maintaining privacy and elbow room that is nearly impossible to find on most developed lakes. On the opposite side of the road, the back acreage offers outstanding potential for a dream home, cabin, camper setup, or RV location. The land features a diverse mix of habitat and terrain that creates both beauty and functionality. Mature oak trees provide a scenic park-like setting across portions of the property, while thicker underbrush, cattails, and bedding cover create ideal habitat for wildlife. A small pond further enhances the recreational appeal and attracts waterfowl throughout the season. For outdoor enthusiasts, this property delivers year-round recreation. Deer, turkey, pheasant, and waterfowl hunting opportunities can all be found right on the property, making it a rare combination of lakefront living and hunting land ownership. Being able to fish in the morning and hunt in the evening without leaving your property is something very few lake properties can offer. Sewell Lake is well known by locals for its quiet atmosphere and outstanding fishing. Unlike heavily developed lakes crowded with constant boat traffic, Sewell Lake provides a peaceful setting where you can truly relax and enjoy the outdoors. The lake is known for quality northern pike, bass, and panfish fishing, and the walleye fishing should not be overlooked either. In fact, the average walleye size in Sewell Lake consistently surprises anglers, with the realistic opportunity to catch trophy-class fish. Finding Otter Tail County lakefront acreage with hunting habitat, buildable land, privacy, and quality fishing all wrapped into one property is becoming nearly impossible. After comparing what is currently available on the market, it is hard to find another property in this area offering this much versatility and recreational value at a comparable price.

Here is your chance to own an absolutely lights-out hunting property located just east of Elizabeth and north of Fergus Falls, right off County Highway 10. From the first time I stepped foot on this land, I knew immediately it had the potential to be an absolute home run the kind of property that can consistently produce top-end deer year after year. Quite simply, it has all the ingredients needed to hold and grow big bucks. Formerly an old gravel pit, this property has completely transformed into a wildlife mecca. The landscape is diverse and dynamic, consisting of mature timber, thick brush, rolling and undulating topography, low willow swamp, a large pond, and its all surrounded by agricultural land. In short, it literally has it all. The large swamp complex to the south and west lies not far from the Pelican River and acts as a massive natural sanctuary. There is no question that this area allows deer to hide, age, and reach their full potential. The current owner has allowed family hunting only and has seen excellent success, including harvesting a very nice buck in 2025. They also have trail-camera photos of a gross Boone & Crockett-class buck from a few years back proof of what this property is capable of producing. While this property truly shines as a deer hunting tract, it also offers strong turkey, pheasant, and waterfowl hunting. The large man-made pond located near the center of the property provides a consistent water source for wildlife and serves as a resting and staging area for both local and migrating waterfowl. Fish have been present in the pond in the past, though long-term sustainability is unknown. At the end of the day, if youre looking for an all-around top-end hunting property near Fergus Falls one that offers recreation, privacy, and a legitimate chance at a once-in-a-lifetime buck look no further. This property is a true gem.

Discover a versatile 13-acre recreational and buildable property offering an ideal combination of future homesite potential, hunting opportunity, and attractive natural features. Located with convenient frontage and access off County Road 18, this tract provides an excellent setup for buyers seeking a manageable acreage parcel that can serve as a private getaway, hunting property, or future country residence. The front portion of the property features open ground well-suited for a potential building location. This area offers excellent access from the road and elevated views across the surrounding landscape, creating a strong opportunity for those looking to build a home, cabin, or seasonal retreat. The combination of easy entry and scenic sightlines adds immediate appeal for anyone wanting both convenience and privacy. Moving deeper into the property, the terrain transitions through a nice ridge that leads down toward a pond area in the back. This natural elevation change creates visual character while also enhancing wildlife movement patterns. Ridges, edge cover, and lower wet areas often create ideal travel corridors for whitetail deer, making this property especially appealing for hunting and outdoor recreation. The pond and lower back portion of the tract offer strong waterfowl potential, with opportunities for duck hunting in a private setting. Water features are increasingly difficult to find on smaller acreage tracts, and having a pond habitat paired with surrounding agricultural fields gives this property a strong advantage for attracting both resident and migrating birds, depending on seasonal conditions. Surrounding agricultural fields further strengthen the recreational value of this parcel. Nearby row crop activity can provide consistent food sources for local deer populations, encouraging regular movement through the property. Combined with the ridge system and pond habitat, the tract offers a balanced mix of bedding cover, travel routes, and feeding influence. The north end of the property includes several strong locations for transitional food plots. These plot areas could be developed to help hold deer on the property longer, improve daylight activity, and create strategic hunting setups. Whether planted in annual blends, brassicas, clover, or other forage options, food plot potential adds another layer of management value for the next owner. Utilities are another key benefit, with power running along the west side of the property. This can simplify future development plans and increase the practicality of building. Smaller acreage parcels with hunting potential, road access, utilities nearby, and build sites continue to see strong demand in many markets. Whether your goal is to build a home with country views, establish a weekend hunting camp, enjoy private duck and deer hunting, or invest in a versatile rural tract, this 13-acre property checks multiple boxes. Properties that combine buildability, habitat diversity, access, and manageable size are increasingly hard to find.

When the current lease expires, another option would be to farm it yourself and potentially add a pivot.
