Guthrie County
Turnkey Hunting Farm With Big Buck History And Tillable Income South Of Guthrie Center
2239 280th Street Guthrie Center, IA 50115
Description
Here’s a farm that checks all the boxes for serious whitetail hunters and land managers. This 128-acre Guthrie County property, set just south of Guthrie Center on 280th Street, has been built from the ground up for one purpose: producing and holding mature deer. With 67 acres of tillable ground generating steady income and the balance in timber, draws, and heavy cover, the layout is designed to keep bucks on the property year-round.
This farm has a long, proven track record. For years, trail cameras have documented the caliber and age class of whitetails roaming these hills—true Iowa giants that most hunters dream of. Multiple strategically placed food plots, a dependable wildlife pond, and carefully managed timber provide everything deer and turkey need to thrive. From early-season bow hunts to late-season muzzleloader, this farm consistently delivers.
It comes fully set up and ready to hunt: ladder stands, hang-on stands, and a deluxe Ambush elevated blind on an 8-foot tower are already in place. You won’t have to spend a season setting up the farm—you can step right in and hunt. Multiple access points from the south, southwest, and west allow you to slip in undetected, giving you the advantage when it matters most.
Beyond the hunting, this farm is a strong land investment. The tillable acres provide reliable income, while the conservation-minded improvements—cover, water, food, and access—add value you won’t find on an average tract. This is more than just ground; it’s a well-oiled system designed for consistent hunting success and long-term land stewardship. If you’ve been waiting for a property that combines income with trophy whitetail management, this farm is ready for you.
