About This Lot
This property is located about 6 miles NW of Elkader, in an area with great hunting and trout fishing history. Big Springs Trout Hatchery is just up the road. The property is surrounded by large acreage landowners, a key component when hunting trophy-class deer. The large ag fields to the South invite the deer and turkeys as a major food source, while the contours and cover of this property provide travel routes that can be taken advantage of during the hunting seasons when game travels back and forth to feed. Don't let the shape of this one worry you. It will hunt way bigger than a traditional square 40-plus property and has lots more edge habitat too. With the addition of food plots in the open areas of the property, I believe recruiting more deer from the large block of woods to the North and West is a strong possibility. Getting more deer to spend more time on and travelling through your land and ultimately increasing the odds for more encounters on the property. The property has 30.44 acres in forest reserve and an additional 3 plus acres of FSA crop acres. The 20 x 24 3 room, three-room off-grid cabin was built in 2016 and provides warm and dry comfort when sleeping or resting for the next hunt. The property has above-average timber value it, making it a solid investment that you can walk on. Call now for a private showing.
