Just 4 miles north of Cedar Vale and positioned within 90 minutes of both Wichita and Tulsa, this ranch delivers unrivaled accessibility, privacy, and wildlife resources, making it a standout investment among large-acreage offerings in the region.

The road on the south end will take you to the top to catch the views or have the ability for multiple access points all along the ridge. It's this rare combination of natural features that makes the property hunt bigger than its acreage, with terrain that allows for multiple hunters to be on the land at once without interference. The current owners have maintained a selective approach to hunting, focusing on bow-only methods and passing on immature bucks. This patient stewardship has produced a thriving population of mature Kansas whitetails, with the genetics, cover, and food sources necessary to grow and hold trophy-caliber deer. This ranch is also home to abundant wild turkey and has been developed for waterfowl hunting with two established duck ponds. One is fed by drainage from a pond, while the other lies near Otter Creek, where there are 2 established pump sites. These wetlands, paired with the proximity to food sources and consistent water, make this an attractive and productive stopover during the migration seasons. This area holds large watersheds where birds will roost during their migration. Despite its rural feel and secluded placement, the property is easily accessible via well-maintained county roads, with entry points from the east, south, and north - a critical feature for managing wind direction and stealth during hunting seasons. The layout is ideal for serious hunters who understand the importance of strategic ingress and egress.

But more than that, this is the kind of property that becomes part of your story - a place to bring friends and family, to mentor new hunters, to walk creeks in the summer and glass ridgetops in the fall. It's a place that lives beyond the spreadsheets and photos. Land of this caliber, with this level of habitat quality, access, and water, is almost always traded privately.

Ultra-premium habitat in this rare Barber County mixed-use ranch. This ranch has everything that one could want in a Kansas property. It has outstanding features galore, including complete seclusion, even though it is just 4 miles from a major Hwy in 281 and only 14 miles from Medicine Lodge. The terrain is classic Barber County, which is a diverse mix of Cottonwood Creek bottoms, rolling grass hillsides, scattered Cedar thickets, and lots of Sand Plums, which all combine for some of the best possible habitat for wildlife and livestock. The property is also strong with a mix of several tillable fields that generally are in wheat but could also maintain milo, alfalfa, or a mixed crop. There are tons of small fingers, hidden pockets, and edge along the numerous small fields that really create a ton of options when thinking about the true hunting possibilities for this property. There are several food plots and feeders in place with some small food plot options that also can be greatly expanded if so desired. The property has no major road frontage but does maintain two separate access points both from the northwest and the southeast. The ranch has some limited frontage along Elm Creek on the far NE corner, and the east side of the property is generally lower and climbs into a more upland type of terrain on most of the western portion. This diversity allows for some significant options for hunting as the lower areas have some great wooded bowls with large timber for turkey roosting, and tons of remnants of deer activity, while uplands have vast plum thickets for quail or pheasants, and up in these cedar hills is where the bucks love to push does in the later parts of the season. There are also great views, and with some higher ridges, a hunter can take a very productive viewpoint and still see wildlife moving in many parts of the property. If you are in the market for a dynamic, world-class hunting and ranch property with ultra-premium habitat and scenery, then this ranch is top of the list. Tours of the property will be by appointment only. Please contact the listing agent to schedule.

With unmatched seclusion, rich history, and luxurious accommodations, The Oaks offers the rare opportunity to own a true legacy estate that balances serious land stewardship with unforgettable family enjoyment.Wildlife & Land ManagementThe foundation of The Oaks is its incredible habitat featuring what is likely the largest contiguous block of timber in the county, surrounded by native grasses, creeks, springs, and regenerative food sources. This habitat has been enhanced and meticulously maintained to create a self-sustaining wildlife ecosystem. With 17 regenerative no-till food plots, including sanctuary plots that are never hunted, and 14 additional mini staging plots, the layout has been designed to support every phase of the whitetail lifecycle while minimizing human disturbance.

These trails arent just functional theyre also the gateway to adventure, whether its a quiet morning hunt, a scenic UTV ride, or a family hike. The result is a property that produces mature bucks consistently, attracts migrating deer from nearby Verdigris River bottoms and Sandy Creek corridors, and maintains an incredibly strong wildlife inventory including turkey, quail, and other native species.The LodgeDesigned with both luxury and practicality in mind, the custom timber-frame lodge sits atop one of the highest points in the county, offering expansive views and complete privacy. It was built to be self-contained and comfortable, so you rarely need to leave. The mile-long, rocked driveway and buried rural water lines ensure modern convenience despite the remote setting. Wildlife routinely grazes just outside the windows, a reflection of the propertys relaxed and undisturbed atmosphere even within the homestead area.

From Native American artifacts to early 1900s carvings in limestone outcroppings and even a historic cave that may have once served as a hideout, this land tells stories that stretch back generations.

One of a Kind Creek Bottom — Timber — Alfalfa Hunting & Farm Property | Barton County, Kansas If you've been waiting for a property that checks every box — this is it. Located just 5.5 miles west of the world-famous Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Refuge, this 156.96-acre tract in Barton County, Kansas is one of the most unique and diverse hunting and farming properties to hit the market in years. Creek bottom timber, lush alfalfa fields, and thick native cover create the kind of habitat that holds whitetail deer, turkeys, waterfowl, pheasants, quail, bobcats, coyotes, and more — year round. Let's start with the deer. Last year, the only buck he allowed to be harvested scored 174 inches. This ground has not been hammered. The genetics are there. The age structure is there. And the next giant is still walking. With the alfalfa that is planted around the creek and timber you have the best food plot already growing to draw in those big monsters. The Property — 156.96 Acres 133 acres of the property are tillable cropland that could generate $10,640 per year in cash rental income. If the new owner chooses to keep the current operator in place, that income begins on day one. A drilled and finished water well is located on the west side of the property — already in place and some finishing touches could allow you to flood out some of the ground to create a waterfowl haven! The Access Package — 1,310+ Additional Acres Here is where this opportunity becomes truly extraordinary. Along with deeded ownership of the 156.96 acres, the buyer will receive 5 years of private hunting access to an additional 1,350+ acres of Barton County ground positioned on the north and east sides of Cheyenne Bottoms Refuge. That's over 1,460 total acres of some of the most diverse and productive hunting country in the state of Kansas — whitetail staging areas, turkey roosting timber, flooded waterfowl flats, and prime pheasant and quail country — all included with this sale. The Future Opportunity The current owner has also indicated his willingness to install a pond — fed and maintained by a dedicated well — on one of the access parcels situated just north of Cheyenne Bottoms Refuge, if the new owner is willing to share in the cost. Imagine a private waterfowl hole sitting on the doorstep of one of the most recognized refuges in the country. The Bottom Line A 174" managed deer herd. 1,310+ acres of bonus hunting access. $10,640 in annual income. A water well ready for waterfowl development. And the most storied wildlife refuge in Kansas as your neighbor. Properties like this don't come back around. When it's gone, it's gone. Call Broker Alec Horton today at 620-214-2417.
