Richford Field & Forest

This Richford NY property offers the best of both worlds for a recreational land buyer, combining open farm meadows with mature mixed hardwood forest. The contrasting terrain creates an attractive setting for an off-grid cabin or hunting camp while providing a variety of ways to enjoy the property throughout the year. Open areas offer possibilities for a sunny cabin site, food plots or outdoor gathering space, while the hardwood forest provides shade, privacy and wildlife cover. The property is located along a seasonal road, making it a natural choice for an off-grid camp. Richford is surrounded by some of Tioga County's best recreational resources. Thousands of acres of public land are nearby in Robinson Hollow, Michigan Hill, Andersen Hill, Beaver Dam, Turkey Hill and Griggs Gulf State Forests. The Finger Lakes Trail provides miles of hiking opportunities, and the East and West Branches of Owego Creek offer local trout fishing. Hunters will especially appreciate the combination of their own fields and woods with extensive public hunting land nearby, while winter recreation includes snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Ithaca and Cayuga Lake are only about 20 minutes away, providing convenient access to the Finger Lakes while allowing you to enjoy the peace and space of the countryside. Financing available.
