Union County - St. Johns Road, Lot#WP001, Dongola, IL
This 315 acre hunting farm in Union County, Illinois sits in a highly regarded area for quality deer and turkey hunting and offers the scale, habitat diversity, and access needed to consistently hold and hunt mature wildlife. With rolling terrain, extensive timber, and a strong water system, the property provides an ideal setting for both recreational enjoyment and long-term land investment. The landscape is defined by timbered ridges and draws that stretch across the property, creating natural funnels and pinch points that influence wildlife movement. Softwoods, mast-producing hardwoods, and pines make up the timber stand, providing both habitat diversity and the potential for marketable hardwood timber. Areas of dense security and bedding cover are scattered throughout the farm, offering the type of structure that helps hold deer on the property throughout the season. A large rock-bottom creek flows through the tract and is fed by several tributaries that weave through the ridges and draws. This creek system serves as a major rut travel corridor for bucks in the area and provides a reliable year-round water source for wildlife. In addition to the creek, the property features a large fishing pond located near the road frontage as well as an additional wildlife pond tucked deeper in the timber. Abundant deer and turkey sign can be found throughout the farm, and the property adjoins tillable acreage on two sides, further enhancing the area's wildlife activity. A well-established road system runs to the center of the farm, allowing for easy access and efficient movement throughout the property. A brand-new creek crossing has been installed to improve access across the waterway. Additional improvements include a storage barn and approximately 1,000 feet of road frontage. The property also offers a great potential build site with access to utilities along the road, providing an opportunity to establish a hunting cabin, primary residence, or recreational basecamp. Located within close proximity to the Southern Illinois Wine Trail, the Shawnee National Forest, and numerous recreation areas, this large-acreage farm combines exceptional hunting potential with access to some of Southern Illinois most popular outdoor destinations. For buyers seeking a sizable hunting property with strong habitat diversity, excellent access, and long-term recreational value, this Union County farm presents an outstanding opportunity.
