106 Acres of Proven Deer, Turkey, and Waterfowl Hunting With Income

If you have been looking for a property with proven hunting, solid income, and nearby recreational opportunities, look no further. Located in an area of Decatur County known for producing top end whitetails, this 106 +/- acre property is a sportsman’s paradise. With 77.71 acres enrolled in CRP until 2027, the farm offers an annual income stream of $11,961 per year. This type of return on a proven hunting property is difficult to find in Decatur County. As an added bonus, the farm sits next to Little River Recreation Area, which offers an additional 787 acres of excellent hunting, fishing, and recreational opportunities. The lake is known for some of the best fishing in southern Iowa.

The diverse amount of hunting opportunities on this property are truly incredible. In the 2019 season alone, the owners harvested deer, turkeys, pheasants, ducks, and geese on this farm! You would be hard pressed to find many properties of this size where that is possible. The trail camera and harvest pictures are a testament to the property’s proven hunting history. The deer sign is abundant and the owners reported seeing 30+ deer on multiple hunts this past season. An insulated Muddy tower blind is included in the sale of the property. The turkey hunting is excellent and numbers are high on the farm and surrounding areas. The lake consistently holds large numbers of ducks and geese and the 1.5-acre pond is situated in an ideal spot for waterfowl hunting. A permanent waterfowl blind was constructed in 2018 on the west bank of the pond and must be seen to be appreciated.

In addition to the incredible hunting, this property has some of the best views in southern Iowa. The view overlooking Little River Lake from the west side of the property is truly breathtaking. Properties located within an hour of Des Moines with proven hunting, income, and recreation do not hit the open market often. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own your piece of paradise in Decatur County! For additional information or to schedule a private showing, please contact Korey O’Day at (515) 519-5779.
