This 589.11 acre tract is the ideal setting for waterfowl and deer hunting with its mixture of river bottom timber, a large lake and backwater timber sloughs. Bordering (with no neighbors!) Sanganois State Fish & Wildlife Area across from Browning on the Illinois River, the waterfowl and deer hunting potential of this property is tremendous! The property has a system of levees around the numerous duckholes. Two cabins provide comfort after a long day of hunting. North cabin built in approximately 2014 runs on propane and woodstove heat, water (non-potable), septic, solar panels. South cabin needs a handy-man's touch, but then can hold additional hunters comfortably (propane heat, 7000 watt generator conveys). Contents of both cabins will convey.
