Description

Exceptional Turnkey Recreational Hunting Property with Outstanding Habitat, Wildlife & Privacy - Purpose Built for the Serious Outdoorsman

If you’ve been looking for a truly special recreational property where the habitat work has already been done and the wildlife speaks for itself, this exceptional tract deserves a close look. Conveniently located within easy driving distance of Iowa City, Burlington and the Quad Cities, this property offers the ideal combination of quality hunting, diverse habitat, excellent access, privacy, and future potential. Beyond its exceptional recreational and wildlife value, the property also offers an attractive income component through Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) payments. The property currently has $33,292 in future CSP payments scheduled through 2030, providing an additional financial benefit to the new owner while the existing conservation and habitat-management practices continue.

The property is home to an abundance of wildlife, including whitetail deer, turkey, bobcat, coyote, woodcock, dove, fox, pheasant, and quail. Surrounding farms are managed with trophy whitetails in mind, creating an exceptional landscape for growing and holding quality deer. Numerous mowed trails provide convenient access throughout the property, while multiple deer stands and blinds are included, strategically positioned to take advantage of travel corridors, food sources, and natural funnels. The habitat has been thoughtfully managed to maximize wildlife use. Extensive edge cover, undisturbed bedding areas, multiple food plots, and a live stream running through the middle of the property create the ingredients for an outstanding wildlife habitat. Food plots have been planted with a variety of crops including sorghum, turnips, corn, and clover, providing both nutritional and seasonal attraction for wildlife.

Significant timber stand improvements have also been completed to enhance the property's long-term habitat and timber diversity. Invasive species have been addressed while desirable native trees have been encouraged, creating a healthier and more diverse woodland environment. The timber includes an impressive variety of species such as butternut, chinkapin, walnut, hickory, white oak, pin oak, mulberry, sycamore, catalpa, and more. More than 50 additional trees have recently been planted, including pin oak, white oak, and American plum.

The property's habitat improvements extend beyond the timber. A diverse wildflower population provides additional habitat and ecological value, and the property is reported to be the only location in Muscatine County where the rare Betony wildflower has been found. Pheasant habitat has been further enhanced through edge feathering and the mechanical removal of honeysuckle, along with prescribed fire to improve native vegetation and create ideal nesting and cover areas. Adding to the property's recreational appeal is its location along the 176-acre Cedar Bluffs Recreation Area, a Muscatine County park bordering the property to the south. This provides an expansive adjoining recreational area and the potential to significantly expand the overall hunting experience.

Access is excellent while maintaining a desirable level of privacy. The property sits at the end of a dead-end, county-maintained road, providing a quiet and secluded setting with no through traffic. Electrical service is already available to the property, with a meter on site and power access running along the entire western border. A 30' x 40' concrete slab is already in place, along with a couple of attractive potential building sites, offering opportunities for a home, future cabin, shop, hunting lodge, or recreational structure.

What separates this property from an ordinary tract of recreational ground is the depth and quality of the improvements already completed. It is a carefully managed recreational property with established wildlife habitat, quality hunting opportunities, extensive improvements, excellent access, and room to create something truly special.

This is not simply land with deer on it.

It is a property where habitat has been intentionally shaped around wildlife. Where timber has been improved. Where invasive species have been addressed. Where food plots have been established. Where bedding and edge cover have been preserved. Where pheasant habitat has been enhanced. Where new trees have been planted. Where access has been developed. And where multiple stand and blind locations are already in place.

The result is a turnkey recreational property with an established wildlife-management foundation and significant long-term potential. For a recreational land investor, this creates an appealing combination of immediate recreational value, established habitat improvements, long-term wildlife potential, and contracted conservation income. The CSP income is an especially attractive complement to the property's hunting and wildlife-management features, helping offset ownership costs while supporting the very habitat practices that make this tract exceptional.

For the buyer searching for a private hunting retreat, trophy whitetail property, upland hunting destination, or future recreational estate, this is an opportunity to acquire something increasingly difficult to find: A high-quality property that has been thoughtfully managed, strategically improved, and positioned to become an exceptional private wildlife estate for generations to come.

Properties this complete—and this well positioned—do not come along often.
