Bear Island Land Co., Inc. is the sister company of Bear Island Surveying, Inc., located in the same office on Ely's main street, providing the opportunity to market and sell to our Buyers several project developments. Subdividing and selling property is the natural result of Ely, MN's active real estate market. However, as long-term residents of this area, it is important to us that the integrity of the northwoods stay intact. Our emphasis on design layout will always maintain the tone of the northwoods.
