Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own Chessee Island, a serene 4.4-acre haven nestled in the Susquehanna River of northern Dauphin County. This idyllic property, now on the market for only the second time in the past 140 years, offers a rare chance to own a piece of history. Located on the west side of the river, Chessee is a tranquil escape, shielded from highway and railroad noise. The property features a grassy beach, a rocky cove, and two protective barrier islets, ensuring a pristine environment free from debris and flotsam. Whether you're inclined to collect river slate or crawdads, camp out for a night or a week, or envision building the adult treehouse of your dreams, Chessee Island grants you the freedom to shape your retreat experience. Connected to Sweigert's Island by a small walkable channel, which leads to the PA Game Commission's Propagation isle, Chessee is accessible by canoe, kayak, motorboat, or airboat from both sides of the river. Preserving its natural beauty, Chessee Island boasts old growth timber, untouched by saw or ax. As a unique offering, all mineral rights convey with the property, adding to its allure. This is not just an acquisition; it's an opportunity to own both peace of mind and a piece of history. Seize the moment to make Chessee Island your very own sanctuary in the heart of the Susquehanna River.
