Welcome to the Prairie Pothole region of the western part of the state! This property lies approximately. 14.5 miles NE of Ortonville and is just north of historic Artichoke Lake. The main land attributes of the property are the two large restored wetland basins that total approximately 110 acres between them. The basins are interconnected by a ditch with a centrally installed culvert control structure, which allows for easy boat launching and access to the open water. The southern basin features a metal sheet pile control structure, allowing water to flow southward off the property. This property stands as a powerful success story of wetland restoration via multiple agencies and individuals and has a Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) conservation easement in place. Beyond the wetlands, the restoration work has included upland native prairie restoration and tree plantings, enhancing the ecological value with upland nesting cover. The property is known as the “Charles Hanson Wetland Restoration and Waterfowl Area”, proudly marked by a commemorative sign honoring all those involved in its creation. For those unfamiliar with Charles, a quick search will reveal an inspiring story of a local legend passionate about waterfowl and taxidermy. Nestled then in the northwest corner of the property is a well-maintained, approximately 44ft x 28ft, 3-bedroom, 2-bath pre-fab manufactured home. This comfortable retreat is equipped with power, water, and a sewer (holding tank), and features a wonderful 28ft x 10ft covered patio that offers sweeping views over the northern basin – the perfect spot for morning coffee or relaxing after a day of hunting. The focus has been on waterfowl, and with obvious reasons, but that isn’t the only game species that can be found on the property and in the area. Not only a hunting camp but with Big Stone and Traverse Lakes not far away, not to mention Artichoke and Oliver nearby, fishing opportunities exist that allow for use of the home as a “base camp”.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
