50-Acre Private Fishery & Recreational Estate |…
Tomah, WI
Monroe
Monroe
Just five miles east of Tomah, where Interstate 90/94 intersects one of Wisconsin's fastest-growing travel corridors, lies a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of the most unique recreational investment properties to reach the market in decades. Privately owned by the same family for nearly 100 years, this remarkable 50+/- acre estate combines a world-class private fishery, exceptional hunting habitat, Bear Creek trout frontage, future development potential and unmatched accessibility into a property that simply cannot be duplicated.
From the moment you enter the gated drive, you're welcomed into what feels like your own private outdoor resort. Towering hardwoods, winding trails and emerald-blue water create an atmosphere of complete escape despite being only minutes from Tomah's restaurants, shopping, healthcare and interstate access. It's the rare property where you can launch a boat, catch trophy fish, watch whitetails filter into evening food plots and still reach Madison, La Crosse or the Wisconsin Dells with remarkable convenience.
The centerpiece of the estate is an extraordinary 17-acre private lake, originally engineered in the 1960s by the Wisconsin Highway Department according to the current owner. Nearly 20 feet deep in areas, the lake has been meticulously managed for years with 11 aeration diffusers, established spawning habitat, a private boat launch and an aggressive fisheries management program that has transformed it into one of the finest private fisheries in the region. Since 2017, hundreds of thousands of baitfish have been introduced alongside carefully selected stockings of walleye, largemouth bass, black crappie, yellow perch and bluegill. Natural reproduction is already occurring, creating a sustainable fishery that promises exceptional angling for generations to come.
Complementing the main lake is a newly constructed 2.5± acre permitted pond, completed in 2023 and thoughtfully designed with future vision in mind. Exceeding 16 feet in depth, this striking body of water features its own powered island-style peninsula, drilled well, electrical service and recent fish stockings, creating an incredible setting for a luxury cabin, executive retreat, boutique campground, waterfront event venue or private family compound. Few recreational properties offer this level of infrastructure already in place.
Beyond the water, the land itself is equally impressive. Established food plots, strategically positioned travel corridors, thick bedding cover and neighboring agricultural fields combine to create exceptional deer hunting. Once surrounding crops are harvested each fall, the property's food plots become one of the most attractive remaining food sources within roughly a one-mile radius, naturally concentrating wildlife and creating outstanding late-season hunting opportunities. Waterfowl utilize both ponds throughout migration while Bear Creek, a designated trout stream, further enhances the recreational diversity of this extraordinary holding.
Miles of established UTV trails weave throughout the property, allowing effortless access whether you're hunting, fishing, hiking or simply exploring. Thousands of recently planted evergreen trees continue to mature, adding privacy, beauty and long-term habitat enhancement while increasing the property's overall investment appeal.
For developers and investors, the possibilities are equally compelling. Few Wisconsin properties combine Interstate 90/94 frontage, exceptional visibility, existing utilities, multiple water features and recreational value into one offering. Whether your vision includes a luxury campground, glamping destination, executive retreat, waterfront hospitality concept, conservation-minded family estate, corporate getaway or simply holding a rare hard asset with significant appreciation potential, this property provides an extraordinary canvas.
With electrical service already on-site, remarkably low annual property taxes of under $340, excellent road access and nearly limitless recreational amenities, this is far more than vacant land—it's a legacy investment designed to be enjoyed today while appreciating for decades to come.
Properties offering this combination of private water, established fisheries, premium hunting habitat, development flexibility and interstate accessibility rarely become available. Opportunities like this don't simply come on the market—they become part of a family's legacy.
If you've been searching for one of the finest recreational investment properties in Wisconsin, your search ends here.

There are few opportunities remaining to own land where preservation itself is the greatest asset.
Located along Grosbeak Avenue in the Town of Oakdale, The Grosbeak Marsh Preserve encompasses approximately 97 acres of permanently protected wetlands and wildlife habitat on the edge of Wisconsin's renowned Driftless Region. Established through a perpetual conservation covenant, the property has been preserved to protect its ecological significance while providing a lasting refuge for native plants, migratory birds, waterfowl, whitetail deer, wild turkey, sandhill cranes, raptors, and countless other species that depend upon healthy wetland ecosystems.
Unlike traditional recreational properties where future development often changes the surrounding landscape, this remarkable preserve offers something increasingly difficult to find—certainty. The natural character of the land has been legally protected, ensuring the marshes, native vegetation, and wildlife habitat remain intact for future generations.
Throughout the seasons, the property transforms into an ever-changing landscape of life and movement. Spring migrations bring thousands of birds to the wetlands. Summer showcases flourishing native vegetation and thriving ecosystems. Autumn fills the marsh with migrating waterfowl while Wisconsin's brilliant fall colors frame the surrounding countryside. Winter provides a quiet beauty found only in untouched natural landscapes.
For wildlife photographers, birdwatchers, conservation organizations, environmental educators, or buyers seeking to preserve an important piece of Wisconsin's natural heritage, ownership extends well beyond the deed.

160± acre Monroe County property Located off…
Little Falls, WI
Monroe
Monroe
Located off a dead-end road in northern Monroe County, this 160± acre property offers a solid mix of hunting, recreation, and usable land in Wisconsin's Driftless Region. The property features rolling terrain, several deep ravines, mixed-age pine plantations, pockets of hardwoods, established food plots, buildable acreage, and one of its best features—an extensive trail system that allows you to access and enjoy nearly the entire property.
Approximately 12± miles of manicured and maintained trails wind throughout the acreage. The trails are wide, well kept, and marked with directional signs, making it easy to navigate the property by UTV or ATV. Whether you're heading to a stand, checking food plots, working on habitat, hiking, or simply taking an afternoon ride, there's a lot of ground here to explore.
From a hunting standpoint, much of the work is already done. Approximately 10± acres of established food plots are spread throughout the tract, with four enclosed hunting blinds positioned to take advantage of food sources, terrain, and natural travel corridors. Shooting lanes have been established and maintained, allowing the next owner to hunt the property as it sits while still having plenty of room to make it their own.
The land has a good mix of habitat. Different ages of pine provide thicker bedding and security cover, while pockets of mixed hardwoods add mast production and diversity. Deep ravines and rolling terrain create natural funnels and pinch points, and the established food plots give wildlife consistent food sources throughout the property. The combination provides habitat for whitetail deer, wild turkey, upland birds, and other wildlife common to western Wisconsin.
Another advantage is the property's adjacency to public land, adding additional acreage to explore and expanding the recreational opportunities beyond the property lines. Combined with the private trail network, there's plenty of room for hunting, UTV/ATV riding, hiking, shed hunting, habitat projects, and simply spending time outdoors throughout the year.
The property also offers buildable acreage for those looking to add a cabin, hunting camp, or country home. With the trail network and recreational improvements already established, a future building site could provide a home base while keeping the majority of the acreage dedicated to hunting and recreation. Any intended construction should be confirmed with the appropriate local zoning and permitting authorities.
Located near Sparta with convenient access to the surrounding Monroe County area, this is a large recreational tract where much of the groundwork has already been completed. The trails are in, food plots are established, blinds are set, public land is next door, and there's room to build and continue shaping the property around your own plans.
