N Astor Rd & N Peacock Trl Area

Out here, you're surrounded by federal land—hundreds of acres of it threading through the neighborhood on multiple sides, creating a landscape that feels remote and intentional rather than suburban. Homes sit on substantial acreage, averaging nearly 24 acres per lot, giving real breathing room between neighbors. The Little Manistee River runs through the area, and Lake Michigan lies just a mile away, so water access defines the terrain. You'll find a mix of year-round homes and seasonal retreats—some rustic cabins, some renovated farmhouses, a few mobile homes on large plots—many of them updated with wood stoves, river views, or those big covered porches built for watching weather roll in. Trails wind through the property, and Hungerford Lake Recreation Area sits about four miles down the road for anyone chasing outdoor pursuits. Coffee and supplies aren't at your doorstep—the nearest shop is three miles away—but that distance is exactly the point: this is a place for people who want land, quiet, and proximity to both river and forest, not convenience.
