49.61 Acres in Harrisburg, IL - $110,000
Check out this unique 49.61 acre tract in one of Southern Illinois top whitetail hunting counties. Small tracts with this much whitetail potential dont come along very often, especially at such a low price. There is over 4,300 feet of frontage along the South Fork of the Saline River offering up first class whitetail hunting, along with the potential to shoot some waterfowl. When you study this farm from an aerial you will see this farm is a natural funnel. There are crop fields on both sides of the farm and the river forces the deer to walk right thru this farm. This was very evident when I walked the farm, deer trails meandered all through the farm. Thick bedding cover borders the property to the north, and more timber and creek bottoms rounds out the southern border. The CRP acres on the front of this farm provide some protection on the road frontage, while providing income to the own...

Thick bedding cover borders the property to the north, and more timber and creek bottoms rounds out the southern border. The CRP acres on the front of this farm provide some protection on the road frontage, while providing income to the owner. Neighboring landowners are practicing QDM (see picture) so the opportunity to see some big bruiser bucks exists. Much of this land will flood when the River gets backed up, but this typically happens in late winter after the hunting season has closed. Give me a call to see the natural transition zones this farm has to offer.
