Jackson County - 262 Grape Stomp Run, Alto Pass, IL
Property Highlights:
Nice 60’x80’ pole barn with 20' lean to (potential home or cabin site for personal use or Airbnb)
Located on the Southern Illinois Wine Trail
Across the street from Jakob winery and brewery
Borders Rendleman’s Orchard with 1000’s of fruit trees
25 acres of CRP makes almost $3000 a year
Electric and water ran almost 1/4 mile back to the middle of the property
8-10 Electric junction boxes, if you wanted to subdivide or build Airbnb’s
2 established food plots
Rock out croppings with a waterfall
Mature Timber
Great Views and Creek
Located on the famous Southern Illinois wine trail across the street from the Von Jakob Winery and bordering the Rendleman’s Orchard with 1000's of fruit trees, there are endless opportunities with the property. The sellers have run electric and water back almost 1/4 mile back to the 60x80 pole barn that sits up on a hill with amazing views (I would love to see the colors of the trees in the fall from this spot). The pole barn could easily be finished out into a really nice home or cabin, or for outstanding income as an Airbnb during the spring, summer, and fall, and then used as a hunting camp during deer and turkey season. They also installed 8-10 electrical junction boxes in case someone wanted to subdivide the property or build multiple Airbnbs in the future. The property has 2 well-established food plots, over 200 fruit and nut trees planted on the farm, and established switch grass for bedding. There are multiple access points with road frontage on the East and North, and a private drive through the center with amazing views of the surrounding area. The sellers don't hunt the farm anymore (they did in the past) and have recently leased it out for the last few deer seasons; the hunters were reluctant to send deer pics.

Jackson County - 98 Indian Creek Road, Carbondale, IL
17.5 Acres of Untouched Timber | Jackson County, IL
The Ultimate Secluded Southern Illinois Retreat
Hidden away south of Carbondale, this 17.5-acre tract is the definition of a "honey hole." If you’ve been searching for a private hunting sanctuary or a quiet timber investment where the only noise is the wind through the hardwoods, this is it. Accessed via a private easement off Indian Creek Road, this property offers the kind of deep-woods privacy that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
Property Highlights
Zero Hunting Pressure: This property hasn’t been hunted in several years, acting as a natural sanctuary for the local wildlife.
Diverse Topography: A true "mixed bag" of terrain. Experience classic Southern Illinois rolling hills that transition into a rich, fertile creek bottom—perfect for bedding areas and travel corridors.
Unique Northern Flats: The northern portion of the acreage flattens out, characterized by beautiful shallow creeks winding through the timber, providing a consistent water source and picturesque landscape.
Heavy Deer Sign: The property is currently loaded with active deer sign, from established trails to rubs, proving that the local herd calls this untouched timber home.
A Hunter’s Strategic Advantage
The combination of the rolling ridges for glassing and the creek-bottom funnels creates a natural "pinch point" for mature whitetails. With no recent hunting pressure, the 17.5 acres feels much larger than it is, offering multiple stand sites for various wind directions.
Location
Situated in the heart of Jackson County, you are just a short drive from the amenities of Carbondale and the beauty of the Shawnee National Forest, yet once you cross the easement, you are in a world of your own.
Broker’s Insight: "It’s rare to find a smaller tract that offers this much topographic diversity. Between the elevation changes and the year-round water in the creek bottoms, this is a turnkey wildlife sanctuary that has been 'resting' for years. It's ready for a new owner to reap the rewards."
