Description
This 30± acre tract in Wayne County, Illinois offers a rare combination of income, habitat diversity, and high-quality hunting opportunities in a manageable size. With a mix of 6.16± acres of tillable ground, 9.84± acres enrolled in CRP generating $1,200 annually, and approximately 14± acres of timber, this property is set up to consistently attract and hold whitetails throughout the season.
The current wheat food plot provides a strong food source that draws deer in, while also creating predictable patterns as deer transition between bedding and food. The layout of the farm naturally forms perfect pinch points and travel corridors, allowing hunters to capitalize on stand placement and wind direction. These features make it easier to intercept cruising bucks during the rut and catch early- and late-season movement near food.
Village Creek rolls its way through the property, adding a critical water source and enhancing the overall habitat. This natural feature not only supports wildlife year-round but also contributes to the formation of funnels and crossing points that deer frequently use. Combined with the surrounding timber, the creek creates a sense of security and seclusion that mature bucks seek.
The 14± acres of timber provide bedding cover and staging areas, with evident deer sign throughout the property. Trails, rubs, and active movement patterns show this tract is heavily used and capable of producing quality hunts. The mix of cover and open ground allows for multiple stand locations and hunting strategies, whether targeting early-season patterns or rut activity.
In addition to its current setup, the property offers a great food plot to further enhance its hunting potential. Strategic placement of small plots could improve holding power and provide even more consistency in deer movement. There is also potential for additional tillable acreage, giving the next owner flexibility to expand food sources or farming options.
Accessibility is another strong point, with road frontage making entry and exit simple and efficient. This allows for quiet access to stands and minimizes disturbance, which is crucial for maintaining a productive hunting property.
Whether you’re looking for a solid investment with annual income, a weekend hunting getaway, or a manageable farm with big potential, this Wayne County tract checks all the boxes. With its proven deer activity, diverse habitat, and excellent layout, it’s a property that serious hunters will appreciate.
