This property is located in Prentiss, Maine. Prentiss is an unorganized township that enjoys a low tax rate. These rural areas have few public services so they are preferred places to invest in timberland and recreational retreats as the holding costs are reduced by as much as 70% from some of the organized municipalities of the state.

What the area lacks in public services it makes up for in safe rural country living and outdoor recreational pursuits. The many nearby lakes, ponds, rivers and streams are made easily accessible by both public land access and large landowners with a historic open door policy for sporting uses. Two nearby lakes are real gems of this undiscovered area in eastern Maine. Grand Lake which forms the US/Canada border with New Brunswick and Baskahegan Lake. Grand Lake has over 16,000 acres of surface water area and is 128 +/- feet at its deepest location and is home to trophy lake trout and landlocked salmon. Baskahegan Lake is nearly 7,000 acres and its many rocky points and shoals have earned it a reputation as one of the most productive smallmouth bass lakes in the state of Maine.
