So, this may be especially attractive to a buyer who likes to fish/boat/raft, or just sit on the riverbank and watch the natural peacefulness of Canada geese, pelicans, ducks and osprey nesting on the island and observe the fly-over eagles that surveil them. To further add to the end-of-road privacy and mystique of the LOCATION is a deep, heavily vegetated natural seasonal stream channel on the northeast side of the acreage; to zoom in on this area use Google Earth coordinates on the big shop at 46.08783, -111.38907.
