The property currently doesnt include a pond but has two draws where a pond could be built, or a rural water meter could be installed, and utilized for watering livestock. For recreational buyers, the grass acreage on the property can be hayed during the summer for income and then left alone in the Fall during deer season.

Crop acreage on the parcel acts to hold wildlife on the property year-round, not just a pass-through parcel.

Large rubs are spread all throughout the timber with tons of deer sign throughout. The tract also offers multiple thick timbered draws in its western half. The property offers both bow and rifle hunting opportunities with the Verdigris River corridor acting as a highway for bucks searching for does during the rut. Large mature roost trees are located along the river and bluff offering good turkey hunting opportunities as well. The property includes nearly 3500 of Verdigris River with the landowner controlling both sides of the river. The river offers great opportunities for fishing, waterfowl hunting, and swimming. A large portion of the property is highly secluded and not visible from the public road offering wonderful seclusion and privacy to wildlife frequenting the tract.
