Description
Here is your chance to own an absolutely lights-out hunting property located just east of Elizabeth and north of Fergus Falls, right off County Highway 10. From the first time I stepped foot on this land, I knew immediately it had the potential to be an absolute home run — the kind of property that can consistently produce top-end deer year after year. Quite simply, it has all the ingredients needed to hold and grow big bucks. Formerly an old gravel pit, this property has completely transformed into a wildlife mecca. The landscape is diverse and dynamic, consisting of mature timber, thick brush, rolling and undulating topography, low willow swamp, a large pond, and it’s all surrounded by agricultural land. In short, it literally has it all. The large swamp complex to the south and west lies not far from the Pelican River and acts as a massive natural sanctuary. There is no question that this area allows deer to hide, age, and reach their full potential. The current owner has allowed family hunting only and has seen excellent success, including harvesting a very nice buck in 2025. They also have trail-camera photos of a gross Boone & Crockett-class buck from a few years back — proof of what this property is capable of producing. While this property truly shines as a deer hunting tract, it also offers strong turkey, pheasant, and waterfowl hunting. The large man-made pond located near the center of the property provides a consistent water source for wildlife and serves as a resting and staging area for both local and migrating waterfowl. Fish have been present in the pond in the past, though long-term sustainability is unknown. At the end of the day, if you’re looking for an all-around top-end hunting property near Fergus Falls — one that offers recreation, privacy, and a legitimate chance at a once-in-a-lifetime buck — look no further. This property is a true gem.
