This stunning 197-acre property in Hardin County, Illinois, is a true outdoorsman’s paradise! Nestled along the Saline River and surrounded by the breathtaking Shawnee National Forest, this farm provides a mix of hardwoods, river bottom timber, food plots, open fields and newly planted trees, creating the perfect habitat for wildlife. This area is known for big bucks and the current owner has it set up with six permanent box blinds in strategic locations overlooking heavy deer feeding areas. The blinds come fully insulated with tinted windows and carpet so you make those all-day sits. In addition to its incredible hunting potential, this area is a haven for adventurers. The Shawnee National Forest offers world-class hiking, horseback riding, and endless exploration. You are only a few miles from accessing the public ground so you will have endless hunting opportunities if you bring guests along. Public and private waters provide excellent fishing opportunities, while the surrounding forest enhances the property’s recreational appeal. For those looking to stay on-site, the off-grid 1-bedroom cabin, with extra sleeping space in two lofts, serves as a cozy and convenient retreat. It’s got a full bathroom, extra large kitchen and dining area, and a covered porch to catch those beautiful sunsets. A newly constructed 36’x48’ pole barn provides ample storage for equipment, ATVs, and all the tools needed to manage the property.
