Description

37.86 +/- Acres on the Dowagiac River — A Private Retreat Near Niles

Some properties you have to talk yourself into. This one sells itself the moment you walk the trail down to the water. 37.86 +/- acres of mixed hardwoods and tillable ground, over 2,000 feet of frontage on the Dowagiac River, and a setting that feels a world away — even though Niles is right around the corner.

Property Highlights

  • 37.86 +/- acres — a mix of mature hardwood forest and open ground, giving you both cover and usable acreage
  • 2,000+ feet of Dowagiac River frontage — a rare amount of river footage on a property this size
  • 11 +/- acres tillable — income potential, food plot ground, or simply open space to shape as you see fit
  • A trail down to the river — a smooth, well-established path takes you from the treetops down through beautiful terrain to the water's edge, where the sound of the current takes over
  • Potential to build — bring your dreams; this property is ready for a homesite, cabin, or getaway

Life on the Dowagiac River

This stretch of the Dowagiac is the real deal — cool, spring-fed water that fishes more like a northern Michigan trout stream than anything you'd expect this far south. Frontage like this opens the door to:

  • Trout, salmon, and bass fishing right from your own property
  • Canoeing and kayaking on a river built for it
  • A public boat launch approximately 1.3 miles upriver, giving you easy access to launch and explore even more water

Wildlife and the Woods

The hardwoods here don't just look good — they produce. Deer and turkey sign is abundant, with a proven track record of success. Come spring, the forest floor delivers a genuine mushroom bounty for anyone who knows where to look.

Location

Close enough to Niles, Michigan for convenience, far enough to disappear. This property delivers the privacy and sanctuary of river and woods without giving up easy access to town — the best of both worlds.
