What an opportunity to own a piece of history on McDougal Lake. This expansive property was a turn of the century logging camp until the 1930’s when it was converted into a CCC Camp with many of the buildings still from that era. After that, Camp Buckskin operated for nearly 60 years as a place for America’s youth to learn about and experience the great Northwoods. +-150 acres of land, +-2, 600’ of shoreline on McDougal Lake, +-3, 000’ on the Stony River and another +-3, 200’ of frontage on the channel between McDougal lakes. There are 34 buildings with an amazing 60, 000 square feet of space including a spectacular dining hall, 3-story office building, 16 bunkhouses, rec. Center, owner’s cabin, heath center, garages, shops and much more. A short walk over the dam leads to a large undeveloped part of the property which can also be accessed via the full-sized bridge for future expansion or development. Very private setting with Federal Land on all sides and just a few adjoining private parcels. Located just 35 minutes from Ely and Lake Superior, this property has year-round access, highspeed internet, wildfire suppression system and endless possibilities. The astonishing size of the camp was able to sleep, feed and educate 180 kids plus 65 staff. Open back up as a youth camp, operate a wedding venue or convert to a resort/campground/rv park. Do you have other ideas, it’s your dream, what do you want to do?
