Description
Welcome to Cache River Whitetails! If you're serious about big deer, you already know—finding the right hunting farm is all about location. Well, this nearly 600-acre farm in Southern Illinois might just be one of the best setups you'll ever come across. It’s been proven time and time again, producing some absolute giants. And let’s be real—your bucks are only as good as your neighbors. That’s a fact. The best part about this farm? You won’t have to worry about that. It borders a nature preserve. No hunting. No hiking. No human intrusion. Nothing. That means those mature bucks have a safe place to grow old, and guess where they’re heading when they step out to feed? Right here. One of the things that really sets this place apart is the trail camera and harvest history. Most farms don’t have a track record like this, but here, you’re looking at a documented history dating back to 2010. Trail cam pics, videos, harvest photos—there’s no guessing here. Genetics on this farm have produced many 10- and 12-point frames, while throwing out an occasional non typical from time to time. This farm has produced the kind of bucks every hunter dreams about. But it’s not just whitetails—the waterfowl hunting opportunities are endless. This property borders the Ducks Unlimited Habitat Restoration area (see map). As a part of the DU Upper Mississippi River Region, they are focused on conservation efforts on thousands of acres adjoining this farm. Their goal on this land is to conserve migratory habitat for both dabbling ducks and divers. On this farm in particular, there are 167 acres enrolled in the Wetland Program in the southwest corner of the property, making it a natural resting area for ducks. A levee system splits the impoundment, giving you the ability to hunt and control two different water sources. Want to take it up a notch? There’s a 38-acre crop field next door that could be leveed and flooded, turning it into a duck magnet. Access is another huge plus. There are two key entry points—one in the Northeast and one in the Northwest. That means you can get in and out based on wind conditions and keep the pressure low. Two equipment sheds at each entry give you a place to store gear or set up a base camp. The layout of the farm is about as good as it gets—a perfect mix of open ground and cover. Fields are spread throughout the property, creating tons of edge, and the diverse habitat makes the farm hunt even bigger than its size. There’s a 75-acre crop lease (typically rotated between corn and soybeans), plus 30+ acres of food plots and early successional cover. The rest is a great mix of upland hardwoods, bottomland timber, and rolling ridges—the kind of terrain that holds deer and turkeys all season long. One stocked pond will provide an excellent place to wet a line on a beautiful summer afternoon. Farms like this don’t hit the market often. If you’re looking for a serious hunting farm with a proven track record, this is it. Give us a call today to schedule a private showing—you need to see this one in person.
