Description
This 100-acre turnkey property in northern Davis County offers the full Southern Iowa outdoor experience — excellent hunting, great fishing, and comfortable accommodations, all ready to enjoy from day one. Located just 3.5 miles northwest of Floris, 12 miles southeast of Ottumwa, and just over 90 miles from Des Moines, it’s conveniently situated yet feels completely private.
The property features a recently finished 1,280 sq. ft. cabin with two bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry, pantry, and a spacious open kitchen and living area — perfect for weekends with family or hunting trips with friends. The adjoining steel building offers abundant storage for tractors, side-by-sides, or even a camper, with a large overhead door for easy access.
The land itself is designed with both wildlife and recreation in mind. The majority of the farm is timber, offering thick bedding cover created from recent logging that has encouraged excellent undergrowth and sunlight to the forest floor. There are over seven acres of established food plots, strategically placed blinds, and a well-maintained trail system providing access throughout the property. Two freshly planted perennial plots seeded in clover and winter wheat draw deer and turkeys early in the season, while larger plots feature standing soybeans for late-season attraction and green plots near blinds for early and mid-season bow hunting opportunities.
Seven ponds are scattered across the property, four of which are a half-acre or larger — including one over three acres. At least three ponds are stocked with bass, crappie, bluegill, walleye, and perch, providing year-round fishing opportunities. It’s rare to find ponds in Iowa deep enough to sustain perch and walleye, but this property offers exactly that. A floating dock on the main pond, located just a short walk from the cabin, makes it easy to relax or cool off after a day outdoors.
This farm has a proven track record of producing top-end whitetails, including multiple Boone and Crockett-class bucks harvested in recent years. With its diverse habitat, quality food sources, and secure bedding cover, the property will continue to hold and attract mature deer year after year.
Whether you’re looking for a premier hunting property, a weekend retreat, or a long-term investment with endless recreational opportunities, this Davis County farm has it all — truly a turnkey setup ready to enjoy from the day you take ownership.
