86.6 +/- Acres of Prime Secluded Deer and Turkey Hunting in Morgan County

Property Description

Some properties stand out the moment you step onto them, and this 86.6 +/- surveyed-acre tract in Morgan County, Missouri, is one of the prettiest, best-laying hunting properties I've had the opportunity to walk. Located at the dead end of a gated private road, in a heavily deer-managed neighborhood, this secluded tract offers an impressive combination of beautiful hardwood timber, rolling terrain, established trails, and outstanding wildlife habitat.

Approximately 78 acres consist of hardwood timber featuring a variety of oak species that provide valuable acorn production, natural food sources, and cover for wildlife. While walking the property, I observed abundant fresh deer sign, reinforcing the property's appeal for whitetail hunting. Turkey sign was also evident, making this an attractive option for hunters looking for a versatile recreational property with existing wildlife activity.

Approximately 8 acres of open cool-season grass hay fields add valuable diversity to the landscape. These areas can continue to be maintained for hay production or converted into strategically placed food plots to complement the surrounding timber and enhance hunting opportunities. The combination of hardwood cover, open ground, and natural food sources provides an excellent foundation for managing the property with whitetails and turkeys in mind.

The property lays exceptionally well, with flat to gently rolling terrain and approximately 150 feet of elevation change across the tract. Roughly one mile of well-maintained trails provides convenient access throughout the property, making it easy to reach hunting locations and enjoy the land throughout the year. Electric service and fiber are also located on the property, adding valuable infrastructure for someone considering a hunting cabin or private weekend retreat.

Whether you're searching for a dedicated deer and turkey hunting property, a secluded outdoor getaway, or a beautiful tract of Ozark timberland to call your own, this property deserves a serious look. With its gated access, excellent layout, established trail system, abundant fresh deer sign, and a desirable mix of hardwood timber and open ground, this is the kind of property that makes an immediate impression in person. If you've been looking for a private hunting property with the beauty, terrain, and habitat this 86.6 +/-  acres is one you'll want to walk for yourself.
