Top End Whitetail Hunting Sanctuary With a Retreat Cabin
Located 30 miles north of Manhattan, Kansas, this 315 +/- acre top end whitetail farm holds the opportunity for one to hold, grow, and harvest mature bucks year after year. The current landowner and family pioneered this area, putting it on the map years ago for growing and laying down world-class deer. So, no surprise when you pull on the farm, one can feel and see that the dynamics are all there, making it a turn-key farm with little to zero hunting pressure. The whitetails aren’t the only thing to write home about. This farm is jam packed with wildlife. Several bull elk are prominent on the farm and roam the area, so you won’t need to rub your eyes twice, it is an elk! Turkey skirt the draws with perfect roosting trees in the bottoms, plus there are several coveys of quail throughout the farm and ducks and geese are always on the lake, allowing for year-round hunting.

A strategic internal trail system runs throughout the farm from the cabin to each pond. A plot and gate entrance allow for easy access without disruption. The cabin offers 2 bedrooms with living space and a kitchen, and a generator for electric and propane heat. The views from the covered deck are world-class as well. There are some killer sunrises and sunsets. Take the trail down to enjoy endless fishing in the 3-acre lake, which is stocked with blue gill, bass, and crappie. There are two additional ponds on the property, along with springs and streams pulling from Bluff Creek and Spring Creek, providing year-round water sources.
The deep timbered draws are made up of mature burr oaks, black walnuts, sycamores, and pine trees with cedars providing cover up top in the pastured bedding sanctuaries.
