Hay Creek Valley offers 240 acres of premier hunting habitat, productive agricultural ground, and dependable income in Gregory County, South Dakota. Located just south of Herrick, approximately 6 miles from Burke and 15 miles from Gregory, this well-rounded tract delivers the natural features and proven habitat that define a true Tall Tines property.

Hay Creek winds through the land, creating a highly desirable travel corridor for wildlife while adding scenic character throughout the seasons. Mature hardwoods line the creek bottom, while scattered pockets of cover provide excellent bedding areas, ambush points, and strategic stand locations. Several established openings offer strong food plot potential, giving the next owner the opportunity to attract, hold, and grow mature whitetails.

This region is recognized for trophy-caliber deer genetics, and the property's combination of creek bottom, grassland, timber, food sources, and secluded cover positions it exceptionally well for quality hunting. A strong turkey population adds another dimension to this multi-species recreational property. A small pond provides a consistent water source for livestock and game.

The property also features an attractive income-producing component, including approximately 85 FSA base acres and 126 acres enrolled in Grassland CRP. These acres generate annual revenue while maintaining the valuable grassland habitat that benefits whitetails, turkeys, and other wildlife.

Whether your goals include hunting, land investment, agricultural income, or creating a legacy property for future generations, Hay Creek Valley offers the versatility, habitat diversity, and trophy potential to stand apart!
