Here is a chance to own a recreational property that is priced significantly less than what other hunting land has sold for in the area! This 80-acre m/l has been transformed into a native grass and wetland ecosystem, creating excellent upland bird and waterfowl hunting opportunities. Located in the heart of the Skunk River Valleyan area known for abundant deer, turkey, and diverse wildlifeit sits in a prime part of southwest Washington County near Brinton Timber, Lake Darling, Rubio, and Brighton.Recently enrolled in the Wetland Reserve Program, former farmland has been planted with over a dozen native grass species and more than two dozen forbs and legumes, carefully selected to attract wildlife that thrive in wet prairie habitat. The prairie mix was planted last year and mowed several times to suppress competing weeds as the natives established themselves.A newly constructed shallow wetland lake is a key water source for migratory birds, deer, turkey, and small game. As birds migrate in the fall and winter, this will provide outstanding waterfowl hunting. While it may look like an open field now, it will soon develop into a thriving wetland, drawing in ducks, geese, and other wildlife.Located just an hour from Iowa City, this property is in a great hunting region. Waterfowl will be the primary focus, but the area is also well known for producing big whitetails and strong turkey populations. Lake Darling, just over a mile to the south, offers fishing, hiking, and camping, while Brinton Timber, a mile southeast, provides additional public access for recreation. These areas serve as natural refuges, supporting robust wildlife populations.The property is easily accessible from Dogwood Avenue, which is set to be paved soon.
