Upon entering the property in the NE corner, you will find that this is the quick access deer blind location you’ve been looking for. A small hill overlooks the secluded 6 acre crop field below, this ideal stand location would also make a great spot to build a getaway cabin or your dream home. Just into the timber beyond the field edge is the wet-weather Buffalo Creek which meanders through the property from the North and is lined with cottonwood, elm, ash trees, and occasional sumac patches along the outer edges. Roughly midway South down the property next to the creek is a small rain-fed pond with pinch points nearby that offer great tree stand locations. Rising from the creek to the West, the rolling native and brome pasture is littered with game trails and areas of cedar trees. While good for thermal cover, strategically clearing some of the cedars would improve the habitat and grazing capacity if that is something that is desired.

Located in what is considered the Rainwater Basin of Nebraska, the surrounding area has a plethora of Wildlife Management Areas and Waterfowl Production Areas if you are also wanting the opportunity to hunt upland birds and waterfowl. After the hunt, if you’re hungry, looking to wet your whistle, or catch a ball game on TV, the Blackshirt Bar and Down South Bar & Grill are only 3 miles away in Deweese to satisfy those needs.

This property has been surveyed at 84.36 acres and is marked by large pipe fence posts between the excluded crop field and surveyed tract. An access easement was created to allow access further into the property if needed.
