Privately owned by the same family for nearly 100<br \/>\nyears, this remarkable 50+\/- acre estate combines a world-class private<br \/>\nfishery, exceptional hunting habitat, Bear Creek trout frontage, future<br \/>\ndevelopment potential and unmatched accessibility into a property that simply<br \/>\ncannot be duplicated.<\/p>\n<p>From the moment you enter the gated drive, you&#8217;re welcomed into what feels<br \/>\nlike your own private outdoor resort. Towering hardwoods, winding trails and<br \/>\nemerald-blue water create an atmosphere of complete escape despite being only<br \/>\nminutes from Tomah&#8217;s restaurants, shopping, healthcare and interstate access.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s the rare property where you can launch a boat, catch trophy fish, watch<br \/>\nwhitetails filter into evening food plots and still reach Madison, La Crosse or<br \/>\nthe Wisconsin Dells with remarkable convenience.<\/p>\n<p>The centerpiece of the estate is an extraordinary <strong><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:bold\">17-acre private lake<\/span><\/strong>,<br \/>\noriginally engineered in the 1960s by the Wisconsin Highway Department<br \/>\naccording to the current owner. Nearly 20 feet deep in areas, the lake has been<br \/>\nmeticulously managed for years with <strong><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:\nbold\">11 aeration diffusers<\/span><\/strong>, established spawning habitat, a<br \/>\nprivate boat launch and an aggressive fisheries management program that has<br \/>\ntransformed it into one of the finest private fisheries in the region. Since<br \/>\n2017, hundreds of thousands of baitfish have been introduced alongside<br \/>\ncarefully selected stockings of walleye, largemouth bass, black crappie, yellow<br \/>\nperch and bluegill. Natural reproduction is already occurring, creating a<br \/>\nsustainable fishery that promises exceptional angling for generations to come.<\/p>\n<p>Complementing the main lake is a <strong><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:\nbold\">newly constructed 2.5\u00b1 acre permitted pond<\/span><\/strong>, completed in<br \/>\n2023 and thoughtfully designed with future vision in mind. Exceeding 16 feet in<br \/>\ndepth, this striking body of water features its own powered island-style<br \/>\npeninsula, drilled well, electrical service and recent fish stockings, creating<br \/>\nan incredible setting for a luxury cabin, executive retreat, boutique<br \/>\ncampground, waterfront event venue or private family compound. Few recreational<br \/>\nproperties offer this level of infrastructure already in place.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the water, the land itself is equally impressive. Established food<br \/>\nplots, strategically positioned travel corridors, thick bedding cover and<br \/>\nneighboring agricultural fields combine to create exceptional deer hunting.<br \/>\nOnce surrounding crops are harvested each fall, the property&#8217;s food plots<br \/>\nbecome one of the most attractive remaining food sources within roughly a<br \/>\none-mile radius, naturally concentrating wildlife and creating outstanding<br \/>\nlate-season hunting opportunities. Waterfowl utilize both ponds throughout<br \/>\nmigration <b>while <strong>Bear Creek<\/strong>,<\/b> a designated trout stream,<br \/>\nfurther enhances the recreational diversity of this extraordinary holding.<\/p>\n<p>Miles of established UTV trails weave throughout the property, allowing<br \/>\neffortless access whether you&#8217;re hunting, fishing, hiking or simply exploring.<br \/>\nThousands of recently planted evergreen trees continue to mature, adding<br \/>\nprivacy, beauty and long-term habitat enhancement while increasing the<br \/>\nproperty&#8217;s overall investment appeal.<\/p>\n<p>For developers and investors, the possibilities are equally compelling. Few<br \/>\nWisconsin properties combine <strong><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:bold\">Interstate<br \/>\n90\/94 frontage<\/span><\/strong>, exceptional visibility, existing utilities,<br \/>\nmultiple water features and recreational value into one offering. Whether your<br \/>\nvision includes a luxury campground, glamping destination, executive retreat,<br \/>\nwaterfront hospitality concept, conservation-minded family estate, corporate<br \/>\ngetaway or simply holding a rare hard asset with significant appreciation<br \/>\npotential, this property provides an extraordinary canvas.<\/p>\n<p>With electrical service already on-site, remarkably low annual property<br \/>\ntaxes of under <strong><span style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:bold\">$340<\/span><\/strong><b>,<\/b><br \/>\nexcellent road access and nearly limitless recreational amenities, this is far<br \/>\nmore than vacant land\u2014it&#8217;s a legacy investment designed to be enjoyed today<br \/>\nwhile appreciating for decades to come.<\/p>\n<p>Properties offering this combination of private water, established<br \/>\nfisheries, premium hunting habitat, development flexibility and interstate<br \/>\naccessibility rarely become available. Opportunities like this don&#8217;t simply<br \/>\ncome on the market\u2014they become part of a family&#8217;s legacy.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been searching for one of the finest recreational investment<br \/>\nproperties in Wisconsin, your search ends here.<\/p>\n<h2>Property Highlights<\/h2>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">50\u00b1 acres in Monroe County,<br \/>\n     Wisconsin <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Just 5 miles east of Tomah<br \/>\n     with immediate Interstate 90\/94 access <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">High-visibility interstate<br \/>\n     frontage with exceptional long-term investment potential <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Same family ownership for<br \/>\n     nearly 100 years <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Stunning 17\u00b1 acre private<br \/>\n     stocked lake <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Newly constructed 2.5\u00b1 acre<br \/>\n     permitted pond completed in 2023 <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Boat launch, 11 aeration<br \/>\n     diffusers and extensive fisheries management <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Stocked with walleye, bass,<br \/>\n     crappie, perch, bluegill and forage species <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Natural fish reproduction<br \/>\n     established <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Powered island-style<br \/>\n     peninsula overlooking the new pond <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Drilled well and electrical<br \/>\n     service already installed <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Bear Creek trout stream<br \/>\n     frontage <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Established food plots and<br \/>\n     exceptional whitetail habitat <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Strong waterfowl hunting<br \/>\n     opportunities <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Extensive UTV trail system <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Thousands of planted<br \/>\n     evergreen trees <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Outstanding opportunity for a<br \/>\n     luxury residence, executive retreat, campground, fishing destination,<br \/>\n     conservation estate or long-term investment <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Annual property taxes under<br \/>\n     $340 <\/li>\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;\n     mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list .5in\">Rare combination of<br \/>\n     recreational enjoyment, development flexibility and generational<br \/>\n     investment value<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align:justify\">Schedule your private showing<br \/>\ntoday with Brandon Wikman or Joe Nawrot.
