Crawford County
Crawford Co IL - Timber Tract In The Embarras River Bottoms With Prime Whitetails
300th Ave Sumner, IL 62466
Description
This all-timber tract is located at the northwest corner of 300th Ave and North 400th Street in the heart of the Embarras River bottoms. The surrounding river corridor is well-known for producing some of the biggest whitetail deer in the county, with woodlots along the river serving as natural travel routes, bedding areas and staging zones. The property has recently undergone a selective timber cut, removing larger trees and allowing more sunlight to reach the forest floor. This will promote early successional growth, improving bedding and nesting cover while creating new forbs and browse for wildlife. As the timber regenerates over the next few seasons, habitat quality and hunting potential will continue to increase. Three trail cameras were run on the property for approximately one month immediately after logging was completed, and captured a large volume of deer activity, including several impressive bucks. This early activity is a strong indicator of the property’s future potential. The current owner has improved access by cleaning up a main trail that runs the entire length of the tract, allowing for quiet and strategic entry. A small food plot has also been added with a single, controlled entrance. Both the main trail and food plot have been seeded with winter oats, providing an emerging food source as spring temperatures warm. With 300th Ave running the full length of the property, access is excellent. This is a rare opportunity to own a compact timber tract in a proven location with strong whitetail history and habitat improvements already in place.
