Hickory Ridge Road , Murphysboro, IL 62966(Jackson County)

This small timber/hunting property is located only 3 miles south of Murphysboro and accessed off of Hickory Ridge Road through a recorded easement. The property is primarily hardwood timber with a nice 3-acre open field and 2 small-secluded food plot areas. One year round creek branch runs through the north part of the farm. This property serves well as a small property with big whitetail hunting opportunities. It borders the Shawnee National Forest in an area that is almost impossible for the public to access but very easy to access from this property. This unique situation gives you the opportunity to own 40 acres with easy access to many, many more acres. This is one of the reasons the current owner has been able to be successful harvesting large bucks off of this small property. Even though he doesn’t hunt on the Shawnee property he has the ability to plant the food plots to draw them on to his property. Check out some of the deer that have been harvested as well as a few of the trail cam pics of bucks using the property this year. With the addition of available electric and city water the property would be easy to build a cabin or home on as well. If you are looking for a small property that can hunt much bigger than it is then you need to check this property out.
