Knox County
Hunting And Recreational Property On Littler’s Creek Is A Prime Knox County Bottomland Paradise
Lot 00 State Route 97 Maquon, IL 61458
Description
Tucked along the banks of Littler’s Creek just south of Maquon, this 11.5+/- acre tract is the kind of small property that checks every box for the serious hunter or outdoor enthusiast. Located in a tremendous trophy buck area known for producing mature whitetails, this prime bottomland parcel offers the ideal blend of habitat, seclusion, and natural travel corridors that consistently attract and hold deer. The property’s layout makes it hunt much bigger than its size. Good cover, natural bedding areas, and the winding creek create perfect conditions for whitetail movement while providing excellent stand locations for multiple wind directions. Littler’s Creek flows through the entire property with tributary Flea Creek joining near the western third of the farm offering a reliable water source and a natural funnel that encourages deer to travel through the property. Adding to its appeal is an older primitive cabin that could be restored or offer an excellent starting spot to start over, giving you a comfortable basecamp for weekend hunts, relaxing getaways, or extended stays during the rut. There are also approximately 1.5+/- acres of tillable farmland on the west side near the road that would generate an annual income, use for food plots or extra wildlife habitat. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning overlooking the creek, slipping into a stand at first light, or simply escaping the pace of town, this property is ready to enjoy from day one. Small recreational tracts with water, cover, and proven hunting potential are increasingly hard to find—especially in an area known for quality deer. If you’ve been searching for an affordable hunting property with big potential, this Littler’s Creek getaway deserves a close look.
