Description
Situated just 5 miles west of Canby, in the heart of western Minnesota’s renowned Buffalo Ridge region, this 80± acre recreational property in Yellow Medicine County offers a rare combination of diverse habitat, established improvements, and outstanding hunting opportunities.
The property features approximately 45 acres enrolled in RIM habitat, creating a strong foundation for wildlife cover and habitat diversity. The upland grass areas provide excellent pheasant hunting opportunities and ideal bedding cover for whitetail deer. The mix of native grasses and rolling terrain helps attract and hold wildlife throughout the season while also contributing to the property's scenic beauty and privacy.
The established 2± acre food plot, planted to corn this year, creates a reliable food source that helps draw and hold deer and other wildlife on the property. Combined with approximately 11 acres of woods surrounding the building site, the habitat diversity creates travel corridors, bedding cover, and natural pinch points for deer hunting. Occasional turkey activity further adds to the recreational appeal of the property.
Improvements on the property include a small cabin and a spacious 40x70-foot pole barn, providing immediate functionality for storage, equipment, hunting gear, and weekend stays. Whether used as a hunting camp, recreational retreat, or future getaway location, the existing improvements add substantial utility and value. There is an older well on the property and overhead power lines. At this time, no utilities are hooked up, but they would only be a short distance away.
Another highlight of the property is the open water that offers duck and goose hunting potential. A stock dam at the south end of the slough makes for easy access to the open water, which makes setup and retrieval convenient for waterfowl hunters.
Access is another strong feature, with gravel road frontage on both the north and east sides. The multiple access points allow flexibility for hunting setups, equipment movement, and future property use. The convenient location near Canby offers quick access to supplies, dining, lodging, and other amenities while still maintaining the privacy and seclusion buyers seek in a recreational property.
