Intersection of Ninnescah River and Silver Creek

Property Description

Located in Deer Management Unit 15 near Arlington is 80 +/- surveyed acres with incredible live water. The intersection of the north fork of the Ninnescah River and Silver Creek traverses this property on either end, bringing wildlife from miles around. This area of Reno County is known for its abundant deer and turkey populations and excellent trophy genetics. The land is characterized by brushy pasture on the river banks and a mature tree row separating the north and south sides of the farm. This row of mature cottonwoods and cedars makes a third funnel, directing deer traffic between the live streams. Planting the 5-acre field south of this tree row to a cereal rye food plot would be a magnet for deer during the late November green refueling stage. Trees and plum thickets scattered around the landscape make endless bedding for the wild game that call this area home. This farm packs a lot of potential hunt setups for its size, comfortably hunting multiple stands at once. These 80 acres can hunt like 160 or bigger, because of the regional geography and sheer volume of traffic that will come through. This property will pick up new bucks all season long, so you never know what might come chasing a doe down the river. With no section road to the North and no section roads for several miles East along the river, this area is secluded and known to draw mature bucks from all the neighboring townships.

The river and creek corridors are fenced off and have gone un-grazed for many years. This barrier creates a divide between the hunting sanctuary and the income-generating remainder of the property. Newly installed cross-fencing and gates, and a few dug ponds make suitable conditions for a rotational grazing lease. Mineral rights are intact and transfer to the new owner. Immediate possession for hunting or grazing will be passed to the buyer.

The parcel is entirely in the floodplain, but recent county road maintenance on Fountain Green Road has made access great with a quality constructed low water bridge on Silver Creek. This is an excellent fishing location, and the water will stay open ice-free even in the harshest of cold snaps, attracting waterfowl and wildlife to zero in on this farm. Opportunities to purchase quality recreation land, in this area with a River and Creek, are rare to say the least. This won’t last long!
