About This Lot

62 ± Acres on Fish Farm Rd — Stocked Fish Pond
Welcome to one of the most versatile recreational and investment tracts to hit the Hardin County
market — 62 ± acres of mixed timber and open ground on Fish Farm Rd in the heart of Southern
Illinois’s Shawnee Hills. The property features substantial paved road frontage, a stocked fish
pond on-site, and rolling, buildable terrain at roughly 430 ft elevation, well outside any flood
zone. With no countywide zoning, no HOA/POA, and the parcel can be subdivided with
multiple homes built, the possibilities are wide open: a family compound, hunting club, weekend
cabin retreat, homestead, or buy-and-hold timberland.
This is trophy whitetail and turkey country, surrounded by some of the Midwest’s most iconic
outdoor destinations — fifteen minutes from the Ohio River at Rosiclare and Cave-In-Rock
State Park, twenty minutes from Garden of the Gods Wilderness, and a short drive to Lusk
Creek Wilderness and the Shawnee National Forest’s 280,000+ acres of public hunting and
trails. Annual property taxes are an astonishingly low $153.88, and Shawnee Communications
fiber-to-the-home is built out across the surrounding exchanges.
There is electric nearby, but not connected. This land does not have utility hook-ups
currently. Buyer will be responsible for a survey, due diligence on water (well required), septic
and intended use.
Local Insights. Just minutes from Cave-In-Rock State Park, Garden of the Gods Wilderness,
Lusk Creek Wilderness, and the Shawnee National Forest, this area is known for some of the
best hiking, hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation in Southern Illinois. Nearby towns like
Elizabethtown and Rosiclare other local restaurants, riverfront dining, small-town charm, and
essential services.
