0 Clinton Highlands ForestDannemora, NY 12918Price: $1,425,000

Set between two large tracts of permanently protected state land, this exceptional generational recreational holding features developed year-round access, the headwaters of Brandy Brook, a series of beaver ponds, and a small cabin with power available at the property entrance. Clinton Highlands Forest is defined by its setting. The property sits directly between two large blocks of New York State land: an extension of Chazy Highlands Wild Forest along its western boundary and Dunkin's Reserve State Forest along its eastern boundary. At 2,175 acres, it is one of the largest private recreational holdings available in northern Clinton County, and with protected public land on either side, the surrounding landscape will remain forested for generations to come. Few private properties combine this scale, seclusion, and permanence. For a buyer seeking a legacy, this property offers a large private retreat with true conservation character - a place to hunt, explore, and care for over the decades. The current owners have managed the land with a clear conservation and stewardship ethic, and the adjoining state lands extend both privacy and recreational range well beyond the property lines. Brandy Brook flows north through the heart of the land, linking a series of beaver ponds and wetlands. A gated forest road leaves Jerusalem Road, where power is available, and runs roughly three miles through the tract. A small cabin near the entrance serves as a ready base camp for hunting season and weekend getaways. A previous owner heavily harvested the forest 10 to 15 years ago, and it is now regenerating vigorously, so its timber value will build steadily as the stands mature, rewarding a patient, long-horizon owner.
