Description

Here’s an opportunity to own 24.97+/- acres in the scenic Driftless Region of southeast Minnesota. This property sits right along the Houston–Fillmore County line and features over a quarter mile of Root River frontage between Rushford and Houston. Enjoy direct access to the Root River State Bike Trail — ideal for morning coffee rides, summer tubing, or peaceful walks surrounded by nature.

The land is entirely south-facing and covered in a mix of timber, creating excellent wildlife habitat. The area is well known for producing quality whitetail deer and a strong population of wild turkeys, offering great hunting opportunities right out your back door. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast, hunter, or someone looking for a quiet retreat along the river, this property delivers year-round enjoyment.

A level area along the road provides convenient parking and a perfect base camp location. Imagine spending summer weekends fishing or floating the Root River, then returning in the fall for crisp mornings in the deer stand. With its size, setting, and direct trail access, properties like this rarely come available in this region.

Located just minutes from Rushford and Houston, you’ll have easy access to local restaurants, groceries, and small-town amenities while still feeling completely immersed in nature. Contact Bob to schedule your private showing and experience what makes this part of southeast Minnesota so special.
