Property details
About 9692 N Laird Rd
144 Acres with Otter River Frontage – Houghton County, MI A rare opportunity to own 144 acres with over a half-mile of frontage on the Otter River — a renowned brown trout stream tucked in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. This mostly wooded parcel offers seclusion, natural beauty, and the kind of peace and quiet the U.P. is famous for. Pike Lake Road borders the property to the west, and the Baraga State Forest lies just to the north. The property has been thoughtfully improved by the sellers: a well and septic system (sized for a 3-bed, 2-bath home) are already in place, along with fiber-optic internet — perfect for staying connected while living off the grid. A 40-foot storage container is also included, and a recent survey has been completed for peace of mind. N. Laird Road, a county-maintained all-season road, provides easy year-round access. Trails meander through the property, leading to the river and a variety of natural features, including apple and crabapple trees, wild strawberries, and excellent wildlife habitat. The land was selectively logged years ago and has experienced healthy regrowth, drawing in deer, grouse, and even the occasional black bear. Located just east of Baraga off M-38 in Houghton County, you’re also just a short drive to Lake Superior for all your boating, fishing, and beach day adventures. Whether you're looking to build a home, set up a hunting camp, or simply escape to the woods, this property offers the space and solitude to do it all. Come walk it — the U.P. is calling.
