Located in southern Elk County, this diverse recreational farm checks a ton of boxes. With live water, food, tremendous cover, and little human pressure, this property is a sanctuary for the wildlife that live on it. There are roughly 44 +/- acres of creek bottom tillable consisting of Class I Mason silt loam and Class II Verdigris silt loam that bring in $2,300/year with a local tenant. For the balance of the farm, there are 40 +/- acres of native meadows, and 7 +/- acres are being hayed currently. Sericea lespedeza is present in spots throughout this native meadow where it isn't being put up for hay. Wildcat Creek meanders through this tract providing year-round water in pools, even if the creek isn't running. Some amazing creek bottom timber consists of multiple varieties of oak, hickory, sycamore, walnut, and more. The creek bottom timber and ridgetop have oak-type timber make up the remaining 124 +/- acres of diversity on this property. Throughout the timber, there are tons of funnels and drainages and elevation change of 100 feet directing the wildlife. Trails, rubs, turkey scratches, scrapes, etc. are found littered throughout the farm. Native glades with cedar thickets, prickly pear cacti, and deer beds are prevalent along the ridgetops of this tract. The north side of the railroad tracks has access off of the road that is overgrown but provides an amazing sanctuary and bedding cover. Electricity, rural water, and natural gas are all available along 7th Street/Road 19 providing all the amenities needed for a home or hunting camp. Off of the main entrance to the property, there are some older buildings providing great implement storage to keep equipment out of the weather. As a hunting property, this piece has huge potential with the food plot locations, tillable, water, and thermal cover, along with both east and south road frontage. The farm is 1 hour 30 minutes from Wichita, 2 hours from Tulsa, 39 minutes from Independence, and 1 minute from Elk Falls.
