180+/- acres of prime Illinois hunting ground is available in southwestern Jefferson County. This rarely disturbed plot acts as a sanctuary for mature deer. With areas of dense vegetation, a large water source on property, and ridges/elevation not normally found in the area, it’s easy to see why deer would feel safe here. With its hills, ridges, and great vantage points, scouting is a breeze. If you enjoy hunting from blinds or elevation, this is the ideal property for you. A gated entrance allows for full sized vehicles and utility vehicles to make getting around easy. Thick growth near the access road, large rocks to aid in erosion control, and the gated entrance help to keep unwanted visitors away. The large lake also has a concrete ramp down to it for access. In addition to being a water source for deer, the stocked lake (bass & bluegill) offers opportunities for private fishing, and waterfowl frequent its waters. You will hear and see ducks flying often, and wildlife feel at home near the tall cattails and marshy grasses surrounding the lake. Deer trails can be followed throughout and there are dozens of fresh new scrapes and rubs that you can’t miss. The tall grasses at multiple levels of elevation are filled with bedding areas. With many locations that would be perfect for food plots, this property is sure to produce quality deer for years to come. Located just minutes away from Rend Lake and its 18,000 acres of recreation, it’s the perfect area to get away and enjoy the outdoors!
