A property of this size has wildlife that rarely interacts with humans and, because of that alone, they can grow much larger and get much older.

Find your way to the picnic table that overlooks the lake, sit and listen to the waves talking to you, then take a walk along the shore to skip a stone across the water, just as you did when you were a kid. This place is magical, it will grab your heart on the very first visit. What you experience on a property like this is the peace that the explorers found, where the big woods ultimately ends at the shore of a huge body of water, a place where your imagination will run wild as you think about all of the possibilities.
