Property Description

Located in Big Buck Country known as the the Mississippi River bottoms of Southern Illinois, this 139.75 acre hunting property located in Monroe County offers a rare combination of professionally developed waterfowl hunting and trophy whitetail deer hunting land. This levee-protected farm sits in an area known for producing monster Illinois bucks, while also attracting strong duck and goose migration.The property is enrolled in the Wetland Reserve Program (WRP), providing secure bedding cover, natural browse, and limited hunting pressure allowing deer to live on the property, instead of passing through. In this part of the Mississippi River corridor, the habitat and genetics consistently grow and hold monster bucks.For waterfowlers, the farm features three leveed duck impoundments, underground water control piping, and adjustable water-control structures providing for dependable flooding regardless of rainfall. An irrigation well with a power unit and 500-gallon fuel tank provides reliable water management. Additionally, the property is improved with a 4-man concrete pit blind.While the duck hunting is exceptional, the deer hunting is equally impressive. Established food plots, thick bedding cover, and secure sanctuary habitat allow monster bucks to stage and feed during daylight hours. Unlike most waterfowl tracts, this property offers a full hunting season from early archery through late-season waterfowl.Additional improvements include a trail system for quiet access and a 30x40 pole barn with a partial concrete floor and electrical service for equipment storage.If you have been searching for Illinois hunting land that offers a complete package of both waterfowl and trophy whitetail hunting as well as convenient access to St. Louis amenities in under an hour, this is truly a turn-key recreational farm.KEY FEATURES139.75 acres of wildlife paradise in Monroe County, IllinoisLocated in the Mississippi River bottomsLevee protected property2 acres excluded with 30x40 pole barn and partial concrete floorWorld Class whitetail hunting with excellent genetics for trophy bucksEstablished food plots in placeMaintained trail system for great accessIrrigation well with power unit and 500-gallon fuel tankThree leveed waterfowl compartments built to government specificationsUnderground water piping system with control valvesWater-control structures for managing water depth4-man concrete pit blindProperty is enrolled in the WRP programWithin an hour of St. Louis, MO
