242.25 acres of rare land with 2619 + feet of frontage on the St. Louis River in Meadowlands Minnesota. The St. Louis River originates at Seven Beaver Lake in the Superior National Forest near Hoyt Lakes, Minnesota. It flows 192 miles (309 km) before emptying into a large freshwater estuary that forms the Duluth-Superior Harbor, where it flows directly into Lake Superior. It is beautiful! Whether you're standing on the bank watching the water flow by, floating downstream in a kayak, or casting a line into one of its many productive stretches, this river never gets old. The fishing opportunities are outstanding, with healthy populations of walleye, bass, northern pike, and catfish. It's also a favorite destination for canoeing, kayaking, tubing, boating, and simply enjoying everything that makes river systems so special. Add in the abundance of wildlife that calls the river corridor home, and it's easy to understand why so many people are drawn to this area. Now imagine owning over 2600 feet of frontage on this incredible river, along with 242.25 acres of mature timber, privacy, and seclusion. The land itself is just as impressive as the river frontage. Mature aspen, birch , cedar, spruce and even a few maples create a beautiful thick canopy throughout the property while lining portions of the riverbank. The diversity of timber provides character and wildlife habitat. The grass slough and areas of low ground provide excellent cover for deer and countless other wildlife species. The area is well known for producing healthy populations of whitetail deer , wild turkey, and ruffed grouse. Bear sign is evident in many locations. The combination of river frontage, timber, lowland habitat, and surrounding landscape creates everything wildlife needs to thrive. You will appreciate the privacy of this property. It is difficult to hear anything but the wind in the trees and maybe the occasional bird and the river. Access is provided through a 60 -foot-wide easement, which helps create the feeling that you've escaped from the rest of the world. Once you're on the property, it's easy to forget that you're only 22 minutes southeast of Hibbing Minnesota and the surrounding Iron Range communities. Included on this property is a 3-bedroom 2-story Cabin powered by propane generator. At the Cabin site are several steel and wood storage units and buildings. If you're dreaming of a private cabin, a recreational retreat, a hunting camp, or simply a place to escape and enjoy the outdoors, the opportunities here are endless. After many years of ownership by the same family, and countless memories made along the banks of the river, the family has decided it’s time to pass this cherished asset on to the next owner. If you've been searching for a property where you can build your own memories, enjoy everything the St Louis River has to offer, and create a legacy for future generations, this property deserves a serious look. This is truly one of those properties you need to see in person to fully appreciate everything it has to offer.
