This farm has an incredible history of deer harvest success and sits in a highly sought-after neighborhood where large landowners are committed to quality deer management. Native grasses blanket the open areas and the south-facing slopes provide ideal bedding cover throughout the seasons. The CRP program not only generates approximately $4,000 in annual income but is also enrolled in the butterfly and pollinator program, adding tremendous habitat diversity that benefits deer, turkey, and upland birds, which are frequently seen across the property.
As you make your way down toward Carruthers Creek, you’ll find mature walnut trees lining the waterway, adding beauty and long-term value. The ridges above are filled with strong stands of white oaks, offering both a food source for wildlife and the potential for marketable timber. Much of the larger timber is already enrolled in the forest reserve program, preserving its beauty and habitat value for years to come.
Every detail of this farm has been carefully designed to maximize hunting opportunities and provide a truly turnkey experience. From the strategically planted food plots to the diverse habitat mix and expansive trail network, this property is ready for the upcoming season. Whether you’re chasing trophy whitetails, enjoying the sights and sounds of upland birds, or appreciating the investment potential of the timber and CRP income, this farm delivers the full package.
