This is a groomed whitetail and turkey hunting property. The current owner has spent the past 19 years planning and executing a top-notch whitetail trophy hunting paradise. There are miles of trails throughout the property with a good private access road. The property is surrounded by farmland and woods, and is bordered on the west side by State Route 81 acting as a man-made funnel for wildlife. This 444-acre property is teeming with all kinds of wildlife including big bucks and healthy whitetail populations. The owner has practiced QDM since he has owned it only harvesting 140 inch or larger mature bucks. Several food plots previously planted around the property include clover, turnips, sugar beets, chicory, buckwheat and brassica. The owner has observed over 80 deer in one pasture grazing at the same time. There are diverse habitats across the property, side hills with thick locust and elderberry bushes, natural pastures, upland forest, and thick pine plantations. On the east hillside, there is a small stream that crosses through the upland forest.

This property has it all for the hunting and outdoor enthusiast. There are three stocked ponds with huge largemouth bass offering a water source for the deer and other animals. When I visited the property, I noticed dozens of deer beds and spotted several deer and encountered a few turkeys. Black bears have also been spotted on the property. A lot of time and planning has been put into the layout of the property for the location of food plots and tree stand locations. Located in the far center of the property is a nicely outfitted cabin that offers privacy and amazing valley views. The cabin offers a camp kitchen with built-in gas cooktop, refrigerator, and a large wood stove with propane wall heaters. There is a second story loft bedroom with a sitting area. The interior could use some finishing touches that you can design to fit your needs. There is an on-demand hot water heater, and bathroom with a standup shower. Water is typically hauled in when needed, and there are storage barrels with a 12 volt water pump system. The cabin is insulated and wired for a generator. Outside the cabin is a good-sized shed with an attached addition to store your equipment.

The property consists of approximately 20 percent cleared fields, 20 percent natural fields, 30 percent pine stands, and the remaining 30 percent is hardwood and softwood mix upland forests. If you enjoy the outdoors, this property has a lot to offer with miles of trails to ride ATVs, hunting, hiking or just enjoying the peace and quiet. Only a few miles away is Marathon which offers a grocery store, gas station and eateries. These large acreage properties dont come along that often. Another amazing opportunity for qualified buyers is the ability to assume the current low interest mortgage and the difference in cash.
