Ashland County, Wisconsin 440,000 Acres of Forest & Miles of Shoreland!

   Ashland County with it's location on the south shore of Lake Superior's Chequamegon Bay holds a lot of history for Wisconsins early people, including the Ojibwa Indians and French explorers.

One band of Ojibwa people still live here and own a significant chunk of forestland here, but most of this land is off limits unless you have permission to be there.

The French explorers haveaspen been long ago replaced with loggers, hunters, tourists, and many others who come here to enjoy and work in the woods.

It is a great place to raise timber and wildlife which is why you see so many smart people anxious to buy hunting and timber land here.

 Our clients at Woodland Management Service own a large amount of some of the best forest land in this county and they are impressed with the bountiful wildlife and timber here.

 

 

Ashland County is home to 440 thousand acres of forest land, most of which, nearly 200 thousand acres is Northern Hardwoods (Maple, Basswood, & Ash).

  A couple of secondary timber types here are Aspen and Spruce/Fir, with another 200 thousand acres which are essential habitats for the great wildlife populations found here. black bear

These forests are great for producing income for our clients and great habitat for Deer, Bear, Wolves, Grouse, and more.

  If you are interested in purchasing land in Ashland County give my friend Eric Kodner a call.
