This viscous little fellow was shot while stampeding the cattle on an unnamed ranch not far to the west. His aggressive behavior and red eyes indicated that he was in full "rut" at the time. The DNR investigated and ruled it a righteous shooting, as lives were in peril, He will be offered without papers or documentation however.

Real Estate Photos

The following pic's are various views of the property that we will be offering at Auction on this sale. When you read this, imagine yourself enjoying all that this property has to offer, privacy, your own semi private lake not a hundred yards out the front door, the convenience of town just a few quick miles away, a future heirloom property to hand down in the family for generations, and LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! You're just a stones throw from Dorset corner on #34 just East of Park Rapids, and all this at a comfortable price that won't break the bank! The Property consists of almost a full twenty acres of recreational ground with some of the best hunting and recreation opportunities that are currently available on the open market, much of the land between the yard and the lakeshore, is covered by majestic "State Park" quality Norway pines, an easy gently sloping, shaded path through them, will take you to your shore of "Peysenske" lake, your shore line is 1325 ft, this is classified "Natural Environmental" and is administered to by the MN DNR, the beauty of that is, no neighbors to the north allowed ! That's right, that shoreline directly to the north of you on the other side of the lake; is sacred ground protected with a wetlands conservation easement, nobody can build there, you essentially have your own private lake. The rest of the land is good high ground planted with thousands of Norway and White pine that will offer beauty and seclusion in the years to come, A wide plateau of open, high ground surrounds the building site offering a magnificent yard and plenty of room to park. Just off the front yard on your way to the lake, a gentle sumac covered slope offers a smorgasbord to Roughed Grouse and trophy Whitetails, combine this with quiet privacy at the end of a dead end road, and you've got the perfect getaway. Did I mention that two giant Whitetail bucks that won the Gander Mountain "Big Buck" contest (with the plaques and mounts to prove it) in two separate years (2003 & 2004) were recently harvested on this land ?...And that bigger ones than that, have been witnessed here?! That's right. The building is all new, quality, stick construction, steel sided, and designed with the hunter/ weekend sportsman in mind. The front part is 30X30 insulated, sheeted , concrete floored and plumbed for floor heat, professionally wired, with a roll up door, it would take very little to finish this space into the comfortable living accommodations only you could imagine. A doorway inside takes you into the rear storage warehouse... CAVERNOUS in size, it is an all accommodating 30' X 60'. This comes with a cement floor and is designed with cold storage in mind for all of your toys, wired and lighted w/12' roll up door, anything you want will fit in here, and when you're done with the hunt...you have plenty of room for the celebration! Add to that the convenience of a full length 12'X60' lean to along the South side, and you can protect everything you've got and more.
