Property Description

Rolling bluff timber with creek, trails, and prime whitetail habitat near Joy, Illinois.

Rolling hardwood timber, from one corner of the farm to the other. This river valley bluff farm has two points of road access, and a live creek that courses along the north side, drawing wildlife through the farm, year-round. An established trail system makes accessing hunting sites throughout the farm very easy. Enjoy off-roading through the woods, during the off season. Down a long driveway sits a good building site, with solid ~40X50 pole barn for storing equipment and trailers. A staple in this timber farm is a strong stocking of black walnut, offering the opportunity for some short-term return on investment with a select cutting. This property is surrounded by ag fields and a long line of other wooded bluff properties, in a great area for big whitetails. Located 2.2 miles west of Joy, IL, and within the Mercer County School District, just 23 miles south of Muscatine, IA on a hard road. 
Whether you’re looking for a great place to hunt, a future homesite in the country, or a place to camp on the weekends, this farm is worth a look.
