Description

Tract 2: +/-160.95 acres

Located in the northeastern corner of Washington County, this recreational and hunting property lies along the banks of the Muscatatuck River. It offers a diverse mix of habitat types and water features. Its layout provides options for hunting, wildlife observation, and outdoor recreation. The property includes approximately 3.5 acres of slough along its northern boundary, creating a year-round water feature that supports diverse wildlife activity. In the northeastern portion of the farm, nearly 38 acres of old field habitat are broken up by multiple tree lines. This configuration provides edge habitat and natural screening. At the same time, the old fields offer space for habitat improvement projects, including food plots or native grass plantings, and are currently providing great fawning and nesting habitat. Some of these fields are ideal for prescribed fire management. Over one-half mile of frontage along the Muscatatuck River provides direct access to the water. Several locations along the bank are suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, or small jon boats, depending on river conditions. The river frontage adds both recreational opportunities and natural habitat diversity to the property. Access to the northern portion of the farm is available from Franklin Bottoms Road. A dirt road follows the river and leads to the old field acreage in the northeast corner. The property adjoins approximately 260 acres of inaccessible state-owned ground, expanding the surrounding habitat base. This proximity to additional public land contributes to the area's overall holding capacity, available cover, and potential wildlife corridors. Terrain consists of river bottom ground with a mix of open fields, sloughs, timbered bottoms, and natural drainage features. This Washington County acreage offers riverfrontage and a diverse, established habitat. It's suited for recreational use, hunting, habitat management, and related outdoor activities.
