Elite Kansas Hunting Farm With Year-Round Recreation

Property Description

Properties of this caliber don't come available very often. Located just half a mile south of the North Fork Ninnescah River in Reno County, Kansas, this remarkable 151 +/- acre farm is the definition of a turnkey sportsman's paradise. Years of thoughtful planning, habitat improvements, and strategic management have transformed this property into an exceptional hunting destination with a proven history of producing mature Kansas whitetails. Every food plot, blind, stand, feeder, and trail has been strategically placed with one goal in mind: creating consistent opportunities to encounter and harvest mature bucks year after year.

One of the most impressive aspects of this property is its location. Directly across the road to the north lies approximately 3,827 contiguous acres of wildlife habitat stretching along the North Fork Ninnescah River. This tremendous expanse of neighboring habitat creates an exceptional setting for a trophy whitetail hunting property, with thousands of acres of additional cover in the immediate area. Combine that surrounding habitat with the improvements and management practices established on this 151 +/- acre tract, and you begin to understand what makes this farm so special.

Visualize slipping down a freshly mowed trail on a crisp November morning, making your way to a strategically positioned blind or stand. As daylight breaks, deer begin filtering through the property, and the anticipation builds, knowing the caliber of bucks this farm has produced. Deer in the 160-180 inch class have consistently frequented this property, with bucks of that caliber harvested over the past several years. Perhaps even more impressive is what the current owner has witnessed following those successful hunts. The owner reports that after harvesting a targeted mature buck, another mature buck that had never previously been observed on the farm appeared within just days. This has happened on multiple occasions and speaks to the property's ability to continually attract mature whitetails. With nearly 3,827 contiguous acres of wildlife habitat immediately to the north, it's not hard to see why this farm continues to draw the attention of mature bucks. This isn't just a property that has produced big deer in the past; it's a farm that has demonstrated the ability to keep attracting them year after year.

The approximately 5.5 +/- acres of established food plots, most of which are planted in alfalfa or a winter annual brassica mix, provide attractive feeding areas. The strategically positioned blinds, stands, and feeders are designed to take advantage of deer movement throughout the property. An extensive system of mowed trails provides convenient access to hunting locations but also helps influence how deer travel across the farm. These improvements work together to create a hunting setup that has been carefully developed with a plan. For the serious whitetail hunter, the opportunity to purchase a property with this level of preparation and a proven track record is something special. For added convenience, a 2018 John Deere 40 HP tractor can also be included with the property.

While the whitetail hunting alone makes this farm stand out, the recreational opportunities extend well beyond deer season. A beautiful, 0.5 +/- acre stocked, spring-fed pond complete with a dock offers a place to spend summer afternoons catching fish and enjoying the outdoors. Even more impressive, the pond features a water-control structure designed to flood a newly developed 0.25 +/- acre marsh, creating an exciting opportunity to attract migrating puddle ducks. A newly constructed pond on the north side of the property provides another valuable water feature, and a solar-powered well adds to the property's improvements. Between the established fishing pond, newly developed marsh, and additional water source, this farm offers a unique combination of hunting and fishing opportunities.

When spring arrives, the focus shifts to chasing Kansas longbeards, with excellent turkey hunting adding another season of enjoyment. 76 +/- acres of expired CRP grass provide valuable wildlife habitat, offering excellent cover for deer and upland game. This substantial acreage of established grassland adds another important element to the property's diverse habitat. Whether you're watching a mature buck work toward a food plot, waiting for mallards to drop into the marsh, listening to a gobbler sound off on a spring morning, or spending an afternoon fishing off the dock, this farm offers something to look forward to for every season.

Perhaps one of the most valuable aspects of this property is the opportunity to build upon the management program already in place. The current owner has put considerable thought into how this farm hunts, from food plot placement and access routes to stand locations and deer movement. The owner is even offering to continue assisting with the property's management plan after the sale if the new owner desires. That opportunity provides valuable insight into the farm's history and allows the next owner to carry forward the practices that have made it so successful.

The property is conveniently located approximately 12 minutes from Arlington, 25 minutes from Hutchinson, and 55 minutes from Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport in Wichita.

Finding 151 +/- acres with this combination of proven trophy whitetail history, carefully planned hunting improvements, waterfowl development, fishing, turkey hunting, and upland game hunting is no easy task. Finding one where the hard work has already been done is even more difficult. This is not simply another hunting farm. It's an opportunity to own a truly special piece of Kansas recreational land where years of dedication have created something the next owner can enjoy from day one.
