Located southeast of Mediapolis and just nine miles north of Burlington, this area is known for its striking landscape and rare changes in ownership. It's hidden from the highway, part of the majestic bluffs overlooking the Mighty Mississippi bottomlands.Access is from gravel frontage on the scenic west side and a permanent easement on a shared driveway off Highway 99. There are approximately 20 open acres in either crops or grass with an average CSR2 of 73.8. It has a stocked pond and is in phenomenal deer and turkey country, so the recreational ability is outstanding here.The eastern field is about 8.5 acres and has the potential for a dream building site. Clearing a section of timber on the field edge could open up stunning views of the Mississippi River valley. On the north fence line, there's a perfect location for a staging food plot, where deer move from dense timber into the narrow stretch before reaching the grain field. The nearby pond is accessible by vehicle on a grass lane. Timber ridges and draws extend west from here, prime bedding areas for deer.One of the farm’s prettiest places is a secluded 2-acre grass meadow near the creek. It’s surrounded by rugged terrain in three directions and would make a picture-perfect clover patch for attracting deer and turkey. Just north of the meadow is some of the finest creek-bottom bedding habitat. Young trees, native grasses, briars, and brambles comprise this bedding area.Cross the creek, head west, and find a terrain saddle. A terrain saddle is a low point between two higher areas, resembling a dip on a ridge or hill. Saddles are key features because they create natural funnels through which deer travel. X marks the spot with well-used trails here; it's one of those stand sites guaranteed to produce close encounters every season.On the west side of the farm is a 10-acre corn field with a great soil profile. The west road has a low-water crossing, so you can access it from that side of the property. The gravel road ends at a gate and turns into a dirt road.
