Custers Camp

Custers Camp A-1607 Opportunities to own a property combining productive agriculture, excellent wildlife habitat, and a fascinating piece of local history don’t come along often. This landlocked 56.46-acre tract is located just four miles west of I-135 near Salina, offering convenient access while maintaining a secluded rural setting. Approximately 37 acres are tillable and consist of highly productive Class II Tobin silt loam soils, providing quality agricultural ground. Possession of the crop ground will be after the 2027 wheat harvest, allowing the current crop cycle to be completed. The remaining 19 acres consist of wooded ground and prime wildlife habitat with over one mile of Spring Creek frontage. Three narrow necks of crop ground extending along the creek have been intentionally converted to food plots and bedding habitat, creating excellent cover and strategically positioned areas for wildlife. The combination of timber, creek habitat, food plots, and bedding cover provides outstanding recreational and hunting potential. Adding to the property’s appeal is its unique historical character. The property is located approximately a two-day horseback ride from Fort Riley, and an old Army campsite on the property is reportedly associated with General George Armstrong Custer and other military personnel. In the south woodlot, remnants of an old homesite, including concrete footings, can still be found, adding another layer of history to this distinctive property. Access into this landlocked property is provided by a 100-foot-wide easement entering the southeast corner of the property. A current hunting lease is in place and expires December 31, 2026, and must be honored. Whether you’re looking for productive tillable acreage, an exceptional hunting and recreational property, or a tract with a story to tell, this 56.46-acre property offers a rare combination of attributes in a convenient Salina-area location.
