539 Waterloo Creek , Dorchester, IA 52140(Allamakee County)

A one of a kind property in a World Class Whitetail area yet that is not the most impressive feature of this amazing property. This piece of real estate is highlighted by a stretch of the most impressive Trout water I have personally seen with my own eyes. Abundant populations of rainbow, brown, brook and the rare but beautiful hybrid tiger trout (brown x brook) the latter a difficult component of the trout slam. Prairie Song Farm is located in the heart of the Driftless area about a half-mile south of the Minnesota border near the small town of Dorchester. The Twin Cities, are less than 3 hours to the north, while other nearby metropolitan areas including Chicago – (5 hours), Milwaukee – (3.5 hours) and Des Moines – (3.5 hours) are also only hours away. Prairie Song Farm is made up of some bluff top timber acres along with approximately 48 acres of creek-side prairie that today resembles the tallgrass prairies from the late 1800s. The main residence is located on the Northern end of the property within a rocks throw of both Brook Creek and Waterloo Creek. This custom 2,700 square foot log-style home was constructed in 2007 and features 3 bedrooms and 3 baths with an open entertainment-minded floorplan. Prairie Song Farm is a top level, year round and versatile recreational tract, featuring world class fly fishing on over a mile of private spring-fed creek, along with some of the mid-wests’ best whitetail deer and turkey hunting and all within a re-established and thriving rare Oak Savanna ecosystem. The owner could literally write a book about the restoration of this stream to its current very healthy state along with improvements to the adjacent habitats that are full of all types of wildlife and 173 different bird species that have been seen here. A very special property that is waiting for a very special buyer.
