With the creek running through it north to south nearly splitting the farm in half, you have a natural travel corridor and rut funnel. The topography and timber makeup along the creek is set up perfectly to have created some great wooly bedding cover as well. Take notice of all the walnut trees as well! Two nice ponds sit on the farm and both have given up trophy sized catfish, while also serving as year round water for the wildlife. Access from the North and the West with a great trail system already in place makes hunting the farm on any wind easy. Roughly 40 acres of tillable ground and 10 acres of hay production give you a nice income to pay the taxes as well.
