Rolling ridges, mature hardwoods, and ideal wildlife habitat define some of the Midwest’s most coveted recreational land. Occasionally, these landscapes are paired with a residence or lodge—but only in rare instances do they reach a truly exceptional standard. This is one of those rare offerings.
Set on 67.51± acres, this remarkable property elevates the concept of a sportsman’s retreat. Whether you’re seeking a private full-time residence, a high-end hunting lodge, or a turnkey outfitting destination, this property delivers on every level.
The land itself is proven and productive. Carefully managed, it consistently produces outstanding whitetail deer and turkey hunting. Trophy-class bucks in the 150–160" range are known to frequent the property, with an impressive 203" whitetail previously captured on video. Turkeys are a near-daily sight, while the 2-acre pond attracts geese and ducks and is well-stocked with crappie. A strategically placed food plot and natural travel corridor along the west side of the pond further enhance wildlife movement. Existing deer stands will convey with the sale, offering immediate hunting readiness.
At first glance, the lodge presents as a well-built metal structure—but step inside, and the scale and craftsmanship are striking. The 40' x 54' (2,160 sq ft) fully insulated garage is thoughtfully designed with metal ceilings, 14' unfinished sheet rock sidewalls, and three overhead doors (two 10'x10' and one 12'x12'). A half bath, ample cabinetry, and workspace make it highly functional, while additional features such as a car lift, large compressor, and paint booth (available separately) cater to automotive enthusiasts.
The attached living quarters span approximately 2,775 sq ft on the main level and showcase custom craftsmanship throughout. A beautifully appointed mudroom—complete with built-in cabinetry, wood car siding, copper tile ceiling, and integrated boot dryers—sets the tone. The dramatic great room is a true centerpiece: 37' x 35', open to above with 16' ceilings, featuring floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, exposed hand hewn beams, solid wood finishes, and striking design elements such as copper duct work and antler chandeliers. Dual staircases lead to matching 20' x 30' lofts on either side, each offering flexible space for guests, offices, or additional living areas.
The kitchen is both elegant and functional, with custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, copper ceiling tiles, and premium appliances including a 60" commercial refrigerator/freezer, double ovens, propane range with pot filler, and more. A hidden prep kitchen behind the main wall provides additional workspace, butcher block counters, and extensive storage.
The main-floor primary suite captures serene views of the pond and surrounding landscape, and connects to a spacious bath featuring dual vanities, bidet, and an oversized walk-in jetted shower (tile finishing underway). A well-placed laundry room offers convenient access from multiple areas of the home.
Upstairs, each loft includes its own bathroom with tiled showers and closet, with one side featuring a dedicated bonus bunk room for storage or kids.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. A 12-foot-wide, 1,488 sq ft wraparound porch—fully covered and accented with a metal ceiling and ceiling fans—provides sweeping 270-degree views of the property’s natural beauty.
Additional improvements include an older barn, adding potential for livestock or agricultural use.
Across the road, a secondary 4-bedroom, two-story farmhouse with a two-car garage, dog kennel, and additional outbuildings is available for purchase. The property is offered at $1,150,000 without the farmhouse, or $1,250,000 with it included. The farmhouse will not be sold separately until the buyer of the primary property has made their decision.
