Description
This 83+/- acre tract in Hardin County, Illinois is a turn-key hunting property that borders the Shawnee National Forest on three sides and offers everything you need for whitetail and turkey success. With a mix of improvements, diverse habitat, and a furnished home base, it’s ready for your next hunt or weekend getaway. The property includes a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom, 14’ x 60’ mobile home that sells furnished, making it move-in ready. A 12’ x 20’ shed, gravel drive with parking area, and a 30-amp camper hook-up add convenience, while a 36’ x 56’ pole barn provides ample storage for equipment. A water well with an artesian system ensures a reliable water source, and the yard area offers plenty of space for gatherings and staging. The land has been thoughtfully managed for both timber value and wildlife habitat. A 2019 forestry plan, paired with a 2021 NWTF habitat grant of $9,500, resulted in significant habitat improvements. A 2023 timber evaluation estimated the stand’s value at $42,700, adding investment potential to its hunting appeal. The habitat blend is ideal for deer and turkey hunting, with approximately 2+/- acres of open ground suited for food plots, along with additional potential sites scattered throughout. Timbered ridges and draws are covered in softwoods and mast-producing hardwoods, while thick bedding cover ensures strong holding power for wildlife. Goose Creek, a spring-fed stream, runs through the property and provides a year-round water source, as well as serving as a natural travel corridor for game. With a full boundary survey, 1,700 feet of road frontage, and multiple entry points, the property offers both accessibility and privacy. Its location places you close to the Garden of the Gods, Iron Furnace, and numerous other recreational attractions within the Shawnee. Whether you’re looking for a hunting retreat, recreational getaway, or land with both timber value and habitat, this Hardin County tract delivers. Give us a call today to schedule your private tour.
