110 Acres in Simpson, IL - $299,000
Sitting in arguably one of the best areas in Southern IL for big buck genetics lies this hunting paradise. Last fall there was a 190-class buck harvested in the area (see trail camera pictures) with some phenomenal genetics. These have carried forward from years past as you can see from the harvest photo by the owner from decades ago. Genetics like this are some of the most desired across the company. Want to know why these deer are getting so big? The bordering public land is hard to access. That’s right, this farm borders Shawnee National Forest and some of the area is too rugged for easy access. As a result, you get a great age structure backed by excellent genetics. Privacy is another key feature on this farm. You do not have any road frontage so the home place is super private. The home gives you a great base camp while you’re hunting.

Also, the hardwood timber is a beautiful stand of mature oaks. Bordering the property on the north side is a large creek with water year-round.
