Trophy whitetail, waterfowl, and turkey hunting is what this Mississippi River bottom farm offers. Located less than 1 mile from the confluence of the Kaskaskia and Mississippi rivers. The fertility of the soils definitely helps the deer grow larger and the ample water sources and natural flyways bring in the waterfowl. The farm consists of 261 acres enrolled in the WRP program along with the balance of the property in timberland and slough. The property offers a great trail system making it easy to access the 10 plus acres in food plots, stand locations, slough, water impoundment, well, and sandbar along the mighty Mississippi River. The private trail to the secluded sandbar gives the property summer time recreational opportunities. It feels like you are on your own private beach, I had to take five and enjoy the natural sounds and beauty the sandbar offers while I was there. If you are looking for a versatile, economically priced farm with great hunting and recreational opportunities then this property is worth looking at.
