Description
You’ve just found one of the most monumental recreational properties for sale in Jackson County, Wisconsin crowded with monster whitetail, blessed with serene beauty and endowed by riches of timber value. This exclusionary 196.7-acre tract lies in the Whitetail Goldilocks Zone situated in the coveted tri-county area of La Crosse, Trempealeau and Jackson – a region riddled with cascading bluffs, meandering streams and a notorious appetite for producing trophy class animals. This impeccable rural real estate provides outdoor enthusiasts to explore a possible build site amidst a countryside radiating both charm and versatility. You’ll find this Driftless Region retreat located at the very southwest corner of Jackson County conveniently situated minutes from Holmen, Sparta and Black River Falls. Enter the estate off County Road D where you’ll find an extensive 80x30ft +/- pole shed featuring a 16x80ft +/- lean-to that offers ample storage for machinery and hunting equipment. A padlocked gate behind the shed opens to a seamless trail system that leads to nothing short of a wildlife utopia. As you traverse the groomed roadway, you’ll cross over a babbling stream and bypass a spring-fed pond that’s a depth of 12ft +/- encompassing one-quarter acre in size teeming with frying pan sized bluegill! A construction site trailer lies at the epicenter of the property, which has been converted into a hunting basecamp. This 4-bed encampment is solar-powered and retrofitted with a new Empire brand LP heater for those chilly October nights. The setup is centrally located at the heart of the farm for flawless access into any treestand setup. The land is a topographical majesty with most of the layout bestowing desirable top-access with additional easement access from the south. Over 7 vast ridges are accompanied by a plethora of brushy bedding knobs that descend into rugged valley bottoms. A medley of hardwood timber coincides with gnarly spruce flats and red pine blocks offering a dynamic range of ecosystems. Deer trails absolutely litter the landscape with game trails literally carven into the terrain. Gigantic buck rubs are everywhere with blown out dirt under overhung branches. You may have seen whitetail worthy properties, but I can assure you that you haven’t seen anything quite like this. Quality Deer Management has been a focal point for years in combination with large private neighboring landowners. This recipe not only breeds proven success but instills it within the very doctrine for growing Boone and Crockett class whitetail. You’ll find two elevated Redneck box blinds with an assortment of hang-on and ladder stand setups ready for action. There’s over 8-acres of planted food plots that range from large soybeans fields to remote clover kill plots and brassica patches that are irresistible to deer. Buried water tubs are strung along ridgetop hot spots that absolutely slay during early season as well as the rut. An array of both fruit trees and deer crazy chestnut trees decorates the estate for additional drawing and holding power. Any given sit, it's not uncommon to see well over a dozen deer. The property truly has an immense carrying capacity due to extraordinary cover and overall landscape structure. If you were to close your eyes and imagine yourself building a world-class whitetail property from scratch; tree-to-tree, acre-to-acre. Conceptualize the design. Envision the layout. Brainstorm your deer, turkey and small game. I can absolutely guarantee you that the fairy tale you’ve concocted rooted in fantasy is as close to a rendition of this very farm than you’d dare to admit once your boots hit the ground. Dollar-per-dollar, you won’t find anything remotely close to a property like this. Click here for more trail cam pictures: https://bit.ly/BucksOfJackson196...
