The topography of this farm is another major selling point. In this part of southeastern North Dakota, good land is defined not only by acres, but by how it lays, how it drains, and how it performs year after year. This property offers a desirable combination of productive farm ground along with lower habitat-rich areas that enhance both the agricultural and recreational character of the tract. The tillable portions are usable and productive, while the balance of the property adds diversity through water, grass, cattails, and natural cover. This kind of topography creates visual appeal, practical use, and a stronger overall land profile. It is a farm that feels substantial on the ground, with a landscape that offers both function and beauty.
The soils and agricultural qualities of the property help tell the story of why farmland in this region continues to be in demand. Southeastern North Dakota has long been recognized as an area with strong farming capabilities, and this tract benefits from that reputation. The area is known for fertile soils, productive cropland, and a landscape capable of supporting strong corn and soybean production along with other cropping possibilities depending on a producer’s operation and rotation. The productivity numbers on this farm reflect the quality of the dirt and reinforce its value as an income-producing asset. Rich soils remain the foundation of good farm ownership, and this property offers that key ingredient. For a farmer looking to add acres in a proven agricultural area, this farm deserves serious attention.
One of the appealing features of the property is the way it blends farmability with diversity. It is not simply a flat quarter of row crop ground with no character, and it is not strictly recreational land with limited income opportunity. Instead, it offers a practical mix. The tillable acres give an owner the ability to generate return through row crop production or cash rent, while the natural habitat areas add tremendous value from a hunting and wildlife standpoint. This blend is often what separates a good land purchase from a great one. A buyer is not forced to choose strictly between farm income and recreational use here—this tract delivers both.
Adding further value is the existing CRP contracts 3 in total. One with 4.42 acres, which provides an annual payment of $868.00 and is in place through September 30, 2031. A second with 18.63 acres with an annual contract of 3,955.00 and it expires 9-30-2032. The third contract is 10.78 acres with 2,352.00 in annual payments and this one expires 9-30-2032 as well. While modest in size, this CRP acreage contributes dependable annual income and adds to the overall habitat quality of the property. The presence of a wetland easement on the bodies of water also enhances long-term conservation and habitat characteristics. For many buyers, these features are not drawbacks at all, but rather assets that improve the wildlife carrying capacity and help preserve the recreational value of the land for years to come. Water and cover are two of the most important ingredients in creating and sustaining a premier hunting property, and this farm benefits from both.
Location is another major strength. Situated in the southeastern corner of North Dakota, just north of the South Dakota state line, this tract lies in an area known for productive farming, strong rural communities, and excellent outdoor opportunities. It is just minutes from Dakota Magic Casino, which offers lodging, food, entertainment, and convenience for visiting landowners, guests, or hunting partners. Nearby Hankinson, North Dakota provides small-town access to local services and community support, while Wahpeton is only about 30 minutes away and offers expanded shopping, equipment dealers, dining, ag services, and day-to-day necessities. Sisseton, South Dakota is a short 25-mile drive, and Fargo is roughly an hour away, giving owners access to a much larger regional hub for travel, supplies, healthcare, machinery, and commercial services. This is the kind of location that feels private and rural without being isolated.
Local agriculture is a real part of the appeal here. This region is surrounded by active farming and ag-based commerce, which is important for both operators and investors. Access to local grain marketing points, elevators, farm suppliers, and service providers helps support the working value of the property. Farmers understand the importance of logistics, and properties in regions with a strong ag infrastructure tend to remain desirable over time. The nearby towns and trade areas help make ownership practical. Whether a buyer intends to farm the land personally, lease it out to a tenant, or hold it as a long-term investment, the surrounding agricultural economy adds confidence and convenience.
Beyond the numbers, this property stands out because of its incredible recreational potential. This region is loaded with wildlife habitat and water, two of the most important components for successful hunting. The property features a mix of cattails, tall grasses, wetland areas, and some trees for cover, creating the kind of habitat that attracts and holds a wide variety of game. The landscape has everything a serious outdoorsman wants to see—food sources nearby, natural travel corridors, bedding cover, water access, and the diversity needed to support multiple species throughout the year.
This part of the country is widely recognized for its hunting opportunities, and for good reason. The property lies within the broader influence of the famous Prairie Pothole Region, one of the most productive and wildlife-rich areas in North America. The Prairie Pothole Region is known for its wetlands, native cover, shallow water areas, and endless wildlife potential. In hunting terms, it is a dream setting. Areas like this support tremendous populations of ducks, geese, pheasants, and whitetails, while also drawing many other migratory birds and upland species. Properties with a healthy mix of water and cover in this region are highly sought after because they offer exactly what wildlife needs to thrive.
For the waterfowl hunter, this farm has serious appeal. The wetland features, surrounding cover, and regional flyway influence create the potential for exciting duck and goose hunting. The area is known for world-class waterfowl opportunities, and farms with habitat like this can become places that owners, family, and friends look forward to hunting year after year. The combination of water, food sources in the surrounding landscape, cattail sloughs, and migration traffic can produce memorable mornings in the blind and outstanding late-season action. Few investments offer the ability to own a tangible asset that can also create that kind of experience.
Pheasant hunters will also appreciate what this property and region have to offer. The tall grasses, cover, and nearby agricultural food sources create ideal habitat for upland birds. This part of the Dakotas has long been associated with quality pheasant hunting, and the habitat diversity here supports that reputation. Walking heavy cover with a good dog on crisp fall days is exactly the kind of enjoyment this farm can provide. In addition to pheasants, there is also the possibility for other upland and migratory bird activity, adding even more depth to the recreational value of the tract.
Whitetail deer hunting is another major highlight. Southeastern North Dakota and the neighboring border region have become increasingly well known for producing abundant whitetails, including the kind of mature bucks that get hunters excited. The combination of crops, water, cover, and travel routes creates a strong environment for deer. Properties that provide bedding cover, food nearby, and security naturally become attractive to deer, and this tract offers many of those key ingredients. For the buyer who wants a place to enjoy h
