This stretch of the Chikaskia River corridor is highly sought after by serious hunters, and this farm sits in the heart of proven trophy whitetail country. Mature hardwood timber, river-bottom habitat, thick bedding cover, and productive cropland make this a premier destination for those looking for a top-end hunting farm. At 240 acres, this farm will allow a non-resident to secure 3 hunt your own land deer tags annually. The property has seen minimal hunting pressure for many years, which has allowed the deer herd and turkey populations to flourish. With around 7/10 of a mile of river winding through the farm, it allows for year-round enjoyment of the property, including waterfowl hunting, fishing, kayaking, swimming, and camping.
There are roughly 129 acres of fertile bottom ground on the farm, which are currently sitting fallow. These acres are a blank slate and could be put back into row crops, or could be converted to food plots, CRP, switchgrass, or a combination of it all. On the southwest side of the property, there are approximately 57 acres of native grass pasture with a pond, which has historically been grazed. If left alone, this portion of the property would provide tremendous grass bedding cover. The neighboring property to the southeast consists of approximately a 100-acre block of timber that really enhances the overall dynamics and habitats on and around this farm.
Turn-key infrastructure is already in place for the next owner to enjoy immediately. A water well and electricity service the property, including 30 amp and 50 amp RV power hookups ideal for weekend stays, hunting camp setups, or future improvements. There is also an old 40'x60' barn, which could be used for storing equipment or processing game after a successful hunt. The seller owns 1/2 of the mineral interest, and that will pass to the buyer. Farmer-tenant rights are in place until March 1, 2026, and cattle pens will be removed from the property.
Whether your vision includes a world-class hunting farm, recreational family getaway, or landholding investment, this property offers unmatched potential and recreational enjoyment for generations to come.
Opportunities like this are seldom available a legacy farm, untouched by the open market for nearly a century, now ready to begin its next chapter. For questions or to schedule a time to view the property, contact the listing agent Shaun Reid at (316)210-6680 orsreid@midwestlandgroup.com.
