This 80± acre hunting tract in Pope County, Illinois provides a prime mix of open ground, timber, and water, making it an ideal setting for deer and turkey hunting. Located in an area with a proven history of big bucks, the property combines high-quality habitat with excellent accessibility and build-site potential. Approximately 12± acres of open ground, including 7± acres of fields and a 5± acre powerline cut, offer ample opportunities for food plots, wildlife openings, and edge habitat. Timbered ridges and gently rolling draws, comprised of softwoods, mast-producing hardwoods, and cedars, provide critical bedding cover and security areas for mature whitetails. Small creek drainages and a wildlife pond add water sources that support year-round wildlife activity. The farm features an established access road and interior trail system, allowing for efficient movement across the property. Abundant deer sign, natural funnels, and transition zones throughout the acreage make this tract highly huntable. An open-walled barn provides convenient storage, and the rolling terrain offers an ideal build site for a cabin or permanent home. With 1,300 feet of road frontage and utilities available along the road, this property combines excellent recreational potential with accessibility and development opportunities. Adjoining tillable acreage expands the potential for wildlife management and land use.
