Description

Located in northern Waushara County, just west of Wild Rose, this 529+/- acre contiguous all–high-ground property represents a stunning combination of sprawling acreage, utmost privacy, and some of the best trophy whitetail opportunities you will ever see in eastern Wisconsin. Properties of this size are exceptionally hard to find in this region, and even fewer have been assembled, managed, and improved with this level of success. Whether viewed as a premier recreational property, a private retreat, or a multi-generational legacy investment, this land offers an uncommon opportunity to own something truly amazing.

The property has been meticulously designed for whitetails, with over 12 years of vision and acreage additions guiding its evolution. An experienced land manager shaped the farm with a clear objective: create a landscape that naturally pulls deer into the interior, supports strong age structure, and gives the wildlife everything they need so they don’t have to leave. The results are undeniable. Per the owner, the five largest bucks taken over the past 12 years with bow and gun have measured 191”, 177”, 173”, 171”, and 171”.

Food and habitat work form the backbone of the farm. Large destination food plots are paired with strategically placed kill plots throughout the property, creating consistent, high-percentage opportunities while maintaining security and daylight movement. A mix of corn, soybeans, alfalfa, and brassicas, ensure attraction, nutrition, and holding power through every phase of the season. The outer edges of the farm have been enrolled in CRP to foster additional bedding habitat while keeping the food to the interior. The outcome is very high deer densities, excellent body condition, and a property that is reliable whether hunted aggressively or enjoyed at a more relaxed pace.

On the south end of the acreage sits a stunning 3,496-square-foot half-log exterior home that balances rustic character with utmost comfort. The home features a warm, woody interior, granite countertops, six large bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a finished basement, making it ideal for extended stays, family gatherings, or hosting guests. Nearby, a large steel storage shed, approximately 35’ x 60’, provides ample space for equipment, recreational vehicles, tractor, and implements. There is an additional smaller storage shed on the northwestern corner of the acreage that is easily accessed via the road.

The property also offers exceptional diversity beyond deer. Turkey numbers are very strong, while two roughly 13-acre lakes, one completely exclusive, serve as a centerpiece and a seasonal waterfowl draw. These lakes enhance the overall experience of the property—offering wildlife viewing, and year-round enjoyment that extends well beyond the fall.

What further elevates this property is the freedom it offers the owner. It can be hunted intensely and strategically, lightly and opportunistically, or not at all, while still retaining its recreational appeal. It is equally well-suited as a legacy family property, a private lifestyle retreat, or a long-term land investment. While significant future development or subdivision potential exists due to the size, configuration, and access, most buyers will value the opportunity to preserve the land’s integrity and enjoy it as it stands.

Supporting all of this is rare four-sided access, allowing for thoughtful entry and exit regardless of wind or season. This feature protects the interior of the farm, enhances huntability, and simplifies overall recreational use while supplying needed access to a property of this scope.

In a market where large, high-quality tracts are steadily disappearing, this Waushara County masterpiece stands as a rare offering—defined by abundant privacy, a thoughtful hunting layout, and long-term flexibility. If interested, please reach out to the listing agent, Dave Schutt, to discuss this legacy investment in further detail.
