Every farm is unique; every farm is different from the next farm, every farm has strong points that make it better than the next or, helps determine its highest and best use. When it comes to recreational farms, every farm has some characteristics or key components that are needed to be a good farm. However, it is very rare that you find a farm that has all the elements desired to be the ultimate recreational farm like this one does! The most important aspect to consider is cover. For deer to call a farm home, they have to feel safe and secure there. This farm is far off the beaten path bordering the Grand River for nearly ½ mile where deer can travel for miles without so much as having to cross a road. To cap off the cover, there has been extensive hinge cutting to open up the canopy of the timber, let the sunlight in and really thicken up the understory to increase the browse and cover...

When it comes to recreational farms, every farm has some characteristics or key components that are needed to be a good farm. However, it is very rare that you find a farm that has all the elements desired to be the ultimate recreational farm like this one does! The most important aspect to consider is cover. For deer to call a farm home, they have to feel safe and secure there. This farm is far off the beaten path bordering the Grand River for nearly ½ mile where deer can travel for miles without so much as having to cross a road. To cap off the cover, there has been extensive hinge cutting to open up the canopy of the timber, let the sunlight in and really thicken up the understory to increase the browse and cover for wildlife. Food is also a necessity for wildlife; this farm has plenty of that with eight food plots including clover, soybeans, corn, wheat, and turnips. Don’t forget about all the mass producing oak trees along the bluff. Part of the farm is in the bottoms and part on the bluff creating a change in elevation that helps direct deer movement. Another benefit of this farm is its location, with this farm bordering the Grand River and just 3 miles west of Fountain Grove Conservation Area it is in direct flight for waterfowl. There is a stop log on the property that will pool up over two acres of water on this farm creating a good waterfowl opportunity. This property has good access along a county road. There is a water meter on the farm and electricity at the road making an ideal location for a campsite, hunting cabin or even a permanent residence. If you are in the market for an income producing, proven big buck factory with extensive management already in place, you will want to check this one out. You will be hard-pressed to find one better. With questions or to schedule a showing, please give me a call.
