Smaller acreage tract with BIG potential! Now available is a nicely situated tract of land in the widely known and sought after Van Buren County in SE Iowa. The farm is comprised of 60 +/- total acres with a good balance of tillable and timber providing opportunities for a variety of options for implementing food and strategy to hunting this farm. Currently there are 22 acres tillable with an average CSR2 rating of 45 currently rented at a rate of $185/acre or $4,070 annually. The remainder of the farm is a mixture of open/grass, timbered draws, creek bottom, and old grown pasture. After spending time on this farm, the old over-grown pasture located in the NE corner is certainly one of my favorite spots. Finding this kind of sweet spot on a farm is huge as it seems the deer prefer it for bedding and it's usually a go-to spot when searching for sheds, the fact that this area is also south...

Finding this kind of sweet spot on a farm is huge as it seems the deer prefer it for bedding and it's usually a go-to spot when searching for sheds, the fact that this area is also south facing is certainly icing on the cake! The lay of the land essentially slopes to the East down to the creek bottom, and besides offering a beautiful spot to build that cabin or dream home with a view you've always wanted, the topography offers areas where food plots can be left that are secluded and out-of-sight from the road. The current owner has put this into practice leaving a larger "destination" food plot for the last several years which has proven to be effective in attracting the deer especially in late season. Additionally, the surrounding area is second to none in providing the fundamental resources needed to carry the wildlife, specifically big whitetails, through to maturity. It only takes a few clicks to zoom out on any aerial map to see that the Lick Creek area is littered with big deep timber draws, spanning ridges, and natural travel corridor. Smaller tracts in areas like this one just don't come available everyday, make this farm you own today!Call Iowa Agent Nathan DeLong at 319-677-0216 with any questions or to schedule a showing.
