This beautiful 88 +/- acre property lies south of Selma in Van Buren County, Iowa. Located in an area known for producing world-class whitetails, this farm is surrounded by big timber and large tracts.

Rolling terrain, a small pond, and a rock-bottom creek provide additional diversity.

The owner has reported finding anywhere from 20-40 sheds most years (see photos), which is impressive for a property of this size. Documented harvest and trail camera history shows the trophy-caliber whitetails this farm produces on a consistent basis. Another unique feature on this property is a signp...
