Recreational Paradise with Tillable Income | Houston County, MN
Located just 4 miles west of La Crescent, Minnesota and only 7 miles from La Crosse, Wisconsin, this 143.05-acre property offers a rare blend of location, topography, hunting potential, and buildability—making it a true gem in the heart of bluff country. Nestled in one of southeastern Minnesota’s most scenic and wildlife-rich regions, this land is an ideal candidate for a dream home, recreational retreat, or smart land investment.
The property features approximately 43 acres of productive tillable ground providing annual income or potential for future food plots. The remaining acreage consists of rolling wooded terrain with a well-developed internal trail network that makes navigating the property by ATV or foot a breeze. The timber has a healthy mix of trees, with several natural funnels and ridgelines that support strong deer movement—perfect for both bow and firearm hunting. The layout of the land, along with its diverse cover and elevation changes, makes it hunt much larger than its actual size.
This area is well-known for producing high-quality whitetail deer and turkey, and this property is no exception. Fresh deer sign, roosting trees, and strategic pinch points can be found throughout the property. Whether you're a seasoned hunter or just enjoy observing wildlife, this land offers year-round outdoor enjoyment.
One of the property’s most unique features is its proximity to local amenities and attractions. It’s located just across the road from Pine Creek Golf Course, a well-maintained 9-hole course with a clubhouse and beautiful setting. You’re also just minutes from the Mississippi River Valley, providing easy access to world-class fishing, boating, and scenic drives along the Great River Road. The nearby towns of La Crescent and La Crosse offer everything from dining and shopping to healthcare and schools, making this a rare combination of privacy and convenience.
If you’ve been dreaming of building a home or cabin in the bluffs, there is a buildable site that would serve as stunning locations for a residence or retreat. With paved road access, power nearby, and a clean, natural setting, the groundwork is in place to bring your vision to life.
Whether you're looking for a private getaway, a hunting property with strong genetics and habitat, a spot to build your forever home, or simply a smart long-term land investment, this Houston County property checks all the boxes.
Don’t miss your chance to own a truly versatile and scenic piece of the Driftless Region.
