Knox County, IL 45 Acres Land For Sale

000 IL Rte 167, Wataga, IL 61488

Property Description

Hunting and recreational farms of this quality are far and few between. This farm has proven to be a very consistent producer of trophy bucks. Numerous 150-170" class whitetails have been taken in recent years, as well as a mid-190s giant, and several other MEGA bucks have been captured on camera. With mature hardwood timber, as well as lots of edges and pockets of thick brushy cover, this farm has a ton of diversity and holding power. There are also 13.4 acres of tillable land that could be enrolled in CRP, or used for cash rental income, as well as offering fantastic hidden food plot locations. The farm has two-sided access which means you can hunt it in nearly any wind direction and have lots of options for future development. The pinnacle of this property, however, is the two picturesque lakes. A 1.4 acre pond, stocked with panfish and bass, drains into a larger 3.6 acre lake, which is also loaded with fish. The property has been a great spot to take a few Canada geese, as well. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind recreational property that will please any serious hunter, while also giving a pristine place to camp, fish, swim and make memories with loved ones, this is the place! Situated in ROWVA School District 208. Located 41 miles south of Moline, IL and 48 miles from Peoria, IL.
