Timberscape Land Solutions is a specialized land management company based in Bear Lake, Michigan. Founded in 2024 by Matt DeFer, we partner with property owners across Northwest Lower Michigan to achieve their unique land goals through professional, thoughtful, and efficient services.

After nearly 20 years working as an engineer, Matt brings proven problem-solving skills and a deep commitment to customer service to his lifelong passion for the outdoors — all with the support of his family. Whether you need land clearing, wildlife food plots, or strategic planning for your property, we approach every project with the precision of an engineer and the care of a steward of the land.

Timberscape Wood & Kiln is a natural extension of that same passion. Born from our love of the forest and its many gifts, we supply the community with high-quality custom wood products. Every piece is harvested locally using sustainable timber management practices and processed entirely in-house — from the chainsaw to the kiln — ensuring exceptional quality and traceability.
