Description
Whitetail Properties Real Estate is honored to bring to the market this world-class whitetail hunting and recreational farm situated in the iconic Loess Hills of Western Iowa. Welcome to Bur Oaks Bluff.
A high ridge runs the length of the farm providing breathtaking views of the Maple and Little Sioux River valleys on one side while forming a protective bowl of habitat and cover around the tillable acres on the other side. These tillable acres and perennial food plots are the core destination for deer to feed and interact. It would be common to see 50+ deer pour into these fields from your stand on any given night.
The ridges and hillsides that make up this farm combine mature hardwood timber, native grasses, and red cedar thickets. This combination makes for exceptional cover for the thriving deer herd and abundant wild turkeys that call this farm home.
The expert land managers at Land & Legacy have developed a full-scale habitat management plan specific to this farm. The current owners have been executing this plan for the last two years, and that work has already started to pay off. The land improvements include:
Timber Stand Improvement (TSI) to enhance bedding cover
Establishment of sanctuaries near food plots
Year-round food source available through the establishment of food plots and increase in natural forbe and nutritional browse
Reduction of red cedar thicket monoculture
Strategic use of fire to re-establish native grasses and forbes
Increased habitat and cover from old field management
The hilly topography offers ideal funnels for up-close bow hunts. Late-season hunting will be excellent because of the vast, centralized standing grain, destination food plot areas, and the comfortably elevated Redneck blinds that come with the farm. Entry and exit routes are available for different wind directions, which is key to the low-pressure and successful hunting of mature whitetails.
It’s hard to appreciate this farm without seeing it in person truly. If you’re looking to own one of the best hunting farms in Western Iowa that’s set up and ready to hunt for the 2022 season, then give the Listing Agent a call to schedule a showing. Private showings are by appointment only.
