Located in the Minnesota River Valley area SW of Sacred Heart and under 2 hours from the SW metro, this property not only will provide opportunities at the quality bucks that roam this area but the ability to hunt waterfowl, pheasants and possibly a turkey or two. Not only is the property located just up out of the river bottom, but it lies just east of the Skalbekken County Park (see photos for location) which to the west of that is the Upper Sioux Agency State Park, and together they make up over 1500 acres that have very limited hunting making this area an excellent area for big bucks. The property itself has had extensive habitat restoration work completed on it through the state RIM (Reinvest in MN) easement program that not only has resulted in a diverse restored upland prairie of grasses and wildflowers but numerous tile breaks, embankment work and a large sheet piling weir wate...
Located in the Minnesota River Valley area SW of Sacred Heart and under 2 hours from the SW metro, this property not only will provide opportunities at the quality bucks that roam this area but the ability to hunt waterfowl, pheasants and possibly a turkey or two. Not only is the property located just up out of the river bottom, but it lies just east of the Skalbekken County Park (see photos for location) which to the west of that is the Upper Sioux Agency State Park, and together they make up over 1500 acres that have very limited hunting making this area an excellent area for big bucks. The property itself has had extensive habitat restoration work completed on it through the state RIM (Reinvest in MN) easement program that not only has resulted in a diverse restored upland prairie of grasses and wildflowers but numerous tile breaks, embankment work and a large sheet piling weir water control structure that has allowed for the restoration of the wetland areas that have resulted in open water areas along with thicker cattail and willow wintering cover or bedding areas. The seller also has the approval for the planting of food plot areas as well that are spread between roughly 3 acres on the northern portion of the property and 1 acre on the southern border. There is also the ability to convert some areas into woody cover shelterbelts as well. There is all over this property which doesn’t surprise me given its proximity to the river bottom, adjacent cropland, and adjacent habitat areas. The cover from a pheasant standpoint is perfect for nesting and early season hunting and then has that wintering cover component to it so you can shoot roosters all season long. Want to build a home/hunting cabin or even just park a camper on a permanent basis? There is roughly a 1.8-acre building site designated out on the west side of the property which is located on a dead end road for great privacy. Not looking for quite this much acreage but like the area, there is an option to purchase the lower approx. 151.39 acres. You have to see this property in person to fully understand its makeup so give me a call, and I’d be glad to discuss any questions that you have!
