Description
This 83± acre tract in Johnson County, Illinois, offers an outstanding combination of proven big-buck hunting, tillable income, creek frontage, and functional improvements. Designed by nature and refined by use, the property provides an ideal layout for both whitetail and turkey hunting, with habitat diversity and terrain features that consistently concentrate wildlife movement. Approximately 32± acres of tillable ground create strong income potential while also serving as destination food sources for deer and turkey. These open acres generate miles of field edge, blending seamlessly into timbered ridges, draws, and low creek-bottom habitat. The abundance of edge and transition cover throughout the farm creates natural travel routes and predictable movement patterns, ideal for stand placement and seasonal hunting strategies. A major highlight of the property is its 3,600 feet of frontage along Max Creek. This creek serves as a significant travel corridor for wildlife in the area, drawing deer through the property during all phases of the season. The low-lying creek bottom features areas of dense security and bedding cover, offering secluded sanctuary that helps hold mature bucks on the farm. Timbered ridges and draws rise from the creek bottom, covered in a mix of softwoods and mast-producing hardwoods that provide both browse and seasonal food sources. Several established access trails allow quiet and efficient movement throughout the property, making it easy to hunt different wind directions and access stand locations without disturbing core areas. The tract also includes a metal shop building and a livestock barn, adding versatility for equipment storage, land management, or future agricultural use. With 250 feet of road frontage and utilities available along the road, the property also offers build site potential for a hunting cabin, lodge, or rural residence. Whether used as a full-time hunting investment, a recreational retreat, or a combination of income and enjoyment, this tract checks all the boxes. With a documented history of producing mature whitetails, excellent habitat diversity, and strong natural features, this Johnson County property is a rare opportunity to own a well-rounded hunting farm in Southern Illinois.
