Woodcock, turkey and snowshoe rabbit are other game species one might expect to encounter in this area. Walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike and panfish are common warm water species found in the slower moving waters of the river, while brown and brook trout might be found in, or near the rapid portions of the stream. Hunting, fishing, camping, boating, and swimming are a few of the many activities to enjoy, on or near this picturesque waterfront property. Building a rustic dwelling on the property might be an opportune way to truly enjoy all this property and surrounding area have to offer. There is a relatively level area near the height of the land that would make an excellent site for a seasonal camp, log cabin, or full-time residence. From that location you might anticipate viewing the native wildlife mentioned above as well as an occasional bear, bobcat, fox, coyote and numerous songbirds. What a thrill for those of you that can work from home! Electric and communication utilities are available roadside. Percolation tests were performed on the parcel by a Licensed Engineer in 2004. This property is subject to protective covenants, as described in the Warranty Deed, found under ‘Disclosures’ with this listing. St. Lawrence County is a very rural and friendly part of the state. Grocery and department stores in Gouverneur (my hometown) are but 10 minutes away. Popular destinations less than an hour’s drive away include; the St. Lawrence River, the Adirondacks, Lake Ontario and Canada. This property might be considered a peaceful haven or a wilderness retreat and possibly the best recreational investment ever made for you and your family!
