When many American’s are looking for a private island, they look to the Caribbean or overseas. It is unfortunate that more prospective island owners don’t see the amazing variety of islands that are available on our own doorstep. One of my favorite islands is Eagle Island

This pristine 6.8 acre wooded island is located on Lake Antoine, one the largest four seasons recreational lakes in Michigan.   Located just 5 minutes from downtown Iron Mountain in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula the entire property is over 7 acres and has over 3700 feet of lake frontage.

The island in its present state is undeveloped. However, the development opportunities are unlimited. The island could be turned into a private retreat or a multi home compound. Really this is one of the best advantages of purchasing an American island, they are purchased freehold and often the development laws are  lax.
