I can't get over how beautiful this property is. I have walked much land in my career and never seen anything quite like it. You're greeted by a huge river bottom when you cross into Iowa from Missouri on Highway 27, over the Des Moines River at St. Francisville. Just on the north end of that bottom stands this towering hardwood bluff on the east side of the highway.
This property has an impressive mix of rugged hardwood forest, tillable acres, secluded areas for food plots, and nine ponds! A long time ago, somebody decided to dam up several draws and build these secluded timber ponds in the middle of the property. Amazing! The pond on the south end is clear and has bluegill and bass. The largest pond is very clear and easy to get to. It's a fictional setting, surrounded by giant oaks. The access across the farm is excellent. A trail system works the entire way west to east, north, and south, all across this rugged terrain.
Driveway access is from the west off Highway 27. Along the south line, there's a lane to get to the hidden area in the heart of the farm. The drainage winds from south to north, and the field is on the east side along the bottom, providing plenty of acres for a secluded food plot. Not to mention that the natural way it lays out is perfect for late-season hunting, both from the west and east fields. Approximately 18 acres of soybeans provide a modest income or options for food plots.
