Des Moines River Hunting Property
An extensive, diverse hunting tract with over one mile of Des Moines River frontage. This property is an excellent wildlife habitat with mature hardwood trees along the river outlined by over 100 acres of upland habitat and ponds. You can access the property off County Road 13. A long gravel driveway will take you back to an old gravel pit. This gravel pit area measures over 20 acres. These acres are not enrolled in government programs and would be a great location for deer camp. Not only is this a convenient area to park and set up camp, but it is also a great deer and turkey habitat with rolling, wooded terrain. Just south of the gravel pit area is an open field of native grasses. Some of these acres have an active CRP contract until the fall of 2028, with an annual payment of $3,779. After 2028, these acres will be permanently enrolled into the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) program. Thi...
