Description
Located in Franklin County, Illinois, just 3 miles outside of Benton, this 65± acre property offers a strong combination of natural features and hunting potential in a highly convenient location. With direct frontage along Highway 34 and additional proximity to West Frankfort and Marion, this tract is easy to access while still providing the setting hunters are looking for.
A fork of the Big Muddy River runs through the property, adding a defining feature that shapes the overall layout and character of the land. The river winds through the acreage and naturally breaks up the property, creating a unique setting that supports consistent wildlife activity. The presence of water, combined with surrounding habitat, makes this a property that holds and attracts both deer and turkey.
The property also features areas of tall cover that provide excellent bedding. These sections create bedding and security areas that add to the overall usability of the farm from a hunting standpoint. The mix of cover and open movement areas gives the property a layout that works well throughout the season.
The way this tract is positioned creates strong travel corridors that make it an effective hunting property. The river, cover, and surrounding terrain all work together to direct movement across the property, offering multiple setup locations and opportunities.
Deer and turkey hunting opportunities are both strong here, with the habitat supporting year-round use. The combination of water, cover, and surrounding area makes this a property that consistently produces wildlife activity.
Highway 34 frontage provides easy access, making it simple to reach the property and move throughout it. Whether you’re looking for a hunting tract, a recreational getaway, or a manageable piece of land in a great location, this property offers a solid opportunity.
The location adds even more appeal, sitting just 10 miles from West Frankfort and 25 miles from Marion. This keeps the property within close reach of larger towns while still offering a rural setting.
Smaller recreational tracts with river features, strong cover, and good access are always in demand. This 65± acre Franklin County property checks those boxes and offers a well-rounded piece of ground for hunting and enjoyment.
