NYS Open Land with view across Sawyer Creek for Sale: The highlight of this property is a prime building location found at the top of an open field with a great view to the east over Sawyer Creek. I would imagine sunrises are spectacular here! At this location Byrns and Shantyville Roads are gravel and maintained year ’round. They are quiet country roads in an area where rolling hay fields and pasture are mixed with pockets of pine and hardwood forest. Electric is available roadside and mineral rights are reserved.
While inspecting the property a variety of critters crossed my path including whitetail deer, turkey, turkey vultures, porcupine, grouse and numerous songbirds. Fish you might expect to catch in Sawyer Creek (cuts through the lower portion of the parcel) are: bullhead, trout, sunfish, rock bass and perch.

Just a mile or so to the east near ‘Rice’s Corners’ is the entrance to the Fort Drum Army Reservation with over 67,000 acres open to the public to enjoy. There are numerous easy access, designated angling and canoe and kayak launch sites. Hunting is also a popular activity on ‘Drum’ during the fall. All that is required to utilize this vast outdoor resource is a Recreational Pass which is available on-line and simple to use. What a wonderful asset to have almost out your back door!
This parcel is approximately 30 minutes from the ‘base’ at Fort Drum, and 45 minutes to Watertown. Less than an hour drive to the St. Lawrence River and Canada, the Adirondacks and Lake Ontario.
The Town of Fowler is a wonderful place to live, work and play. I know this because I spent the better part of my youth here; hunting, trapping, fishing, boating, and camping in the waters and along the shores of Sawyer and Matoon Creeks and the Oswegatchie River. Every season was a new adventure! Also, many of the roads in the Town of Fowler are open to both ATV’s and snowmobiles.
