Big things come in small packages, and the Royston Reds 230 is no exception! If you long for a property that gets you away from others while giving you the opportunity to enjoy yourself outdoors, then you might not find a better place than you will on the outskirts of the little community of Royston.
Off the beaten path, this property comes with a hunters cabin, three surface tanks, and built-in income off the remaining CRP contract. It is a great place to hunt whitetail deer and feral hogs while also enjoying the dove, waterfowl, and Sandhill cranes that are attracted to the five-acre flat with cattails and duck grass. This low area catches a good amount of shallow water, which works as a great attractant for our flying friends.
Not many properties offer you waterfowl and Sandhill cranes, right? The quail enjoy the cover throughout, but they especially like the thick grass and protection they find in the CRP fields. This property offers a variety of ways to hunt all year. While you arent hunting, you can test your luck with the bass and catfish fishing at the next stock tank.
