This extraordinary 77-acre off-grid retreat in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, features approximately 1,500 feet of Escanaba River frontage in Forsyth Township. Offering exceptional privacy, natural beauty, recreation, and true self-sufficiency, this remarkable property provides a rare opportunity to enjoy the U.P. on your own terms. Say goodbye to traditional monthly utility costs and embrace a lifestyle built around independence. The professionally designed solar energy system features a Sol-Ark inverter, battery storage, solar panels, and a 15-kilowatt generator for backup power. The property also includes Starlink internet, a private well and septic system, and a wood-burning heating system, allowing you to enjoy modern conveniences without relying on the traditional utility grid. The 1,092-square-foot main home features one bedroom, one-and-a-half bathrooms, an open floor plan, warm wood finishes, an updated primary suite, main-floor laundry, and screened-in porch spaces surrounded by the beauty of the U.P. woods. A wood stove serves as the primary heat source, with over a year's worth of firewood already prepared, while two propane wall heaters provide supplemental comfort. A separate private guest retreat is connected to the solar system and includes a loft sleeping area, bathroom with shower, propane refrigerator, propane stove, and propane heat—offering comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Additional improvements include two 40-foot shipping containers, a greenhouse, established trails, and a beautifully wooded landscape of hardwoods, pines, and cedars.
