Description

This ±118.34-acre recreational property in Wayne County, Illinois, offers a diverse blend of natural features and accessibility that make it highly usable for multiple outdoor activities. Bordered by the Little Wabash River and featuring a central slough, the land includes water access on both sides with boat ramps constructed for each body of water. The property is located just 11 miles from Albion and 15 miles from Fairfield, making it easily reachable while still offering privacy and seclusion.

The Little Wabash River borders the tract and has historically produced notable catches, including flathead catfish. The slough that runs through the center of the property provides an additional fishing resource, where crappie and more catfishing have been proven. Both the river and the slough offer opportunities not just for fishing but for seasonal duck hunting. The presence of two boat ramps enhances the usability of these water features and allows for better access during both hunting and fishing seasons.

The property has a well-established internal trail system that offers access to nearly every corner of the land. This not only makes it more manageable for recreational use but also supports strategic movement during hunting seasons or general maintenance. The existing trail system could accommodate ATVs or small utility vehicles.

The habitat is diverse and supports a range of wildlife. Current owners have documented a history of deer and duck harvests on the property. Natural cover, access to water, and minimal development contribute to the property's suitability for continued wildlife use.

This tract represents a sizeable, contiguous block of land suited for recreational purposes, especially hunting and fishing. The location within driving distance of nearby towns adds further value for those looking to access basic services while keeping a remote feel.

Whether you're interested in land investment, hunting, or simply a private retreat in southern Illinois, this property offers a solid combination of access, water, trail systems, and wildlife habitat.
