In addition, on the west side of the farm, there are two fields totaling about 11 acres with about 5 acres of planted and managed food plots. The fields along the Ohio River and Refuge could be planted and flooded in addition to building levees, planting food plots and strategically placing pits and blinds.

In addition to waterfowl hunting, fishing opportunities are endless. Crappie, large mouth bass, and bluegill are steps away from the home site in your own pond. The Ohio River also offers unlimited fishing opportunities. With some work, a private boat ramp can be built off a creek bank to the river. In addition to waterfowl hunting and fishing, this farm offers some of the best Whitetail deer hunting Illinois has to offer. Giant Whitetails live on and around this farm with the lush food plots pulling them deep into the farm.
There is an old barn with hand hewn beams that has been beautifully renovated and can be used as a venue for weddings or large gatherings. There is also a large open deck between the barn and an old home with enough room to hold 20 or more people or to be used as a stage for a band or wedding, etc. This open deck could also hold a large hot tub with views of the Ohio river backdrop. Additionally, 3 bedroom home with 2 bathrooms and an older horse stable barn to house your own horses.

This charming 79 acre farm offers many features and benefits, making it an excellent investment opportunity. At the heart of the property is a lovely cabin that generates income through its consistent rentals on Airbnb. The seller has noted the cabin is frequently booked, yet you have the flexibility to block off any dates for personal use. Situated at the end of a quiet, dead-end road, the property provides direct access to thousands of acres of the Shawnee National Forest. This area is known for its remote beauty and offers fantastic opportunities for hiking and hunting without the crowds, allowing you to explore miles of pristine wilderness. The land includes several hidden fields that can potentially be established as food plots and a large agricultural field that attracts deer from the surrounding timber. Personally, I would recommend planting approximately 6 to 7 acres dedicated to food plots, while converting the remaining tillable land into Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) warm-season grasses to enhance the habitat and promote wildlife conservation.
