Skunk River Whitetail Farm with CRP Income Jefferson/Henry County Line | Southeast Iowa | Skunk River Frontage This stunning 215+ acre property offers the perfect combination of recreation, exceptional income, and dream-worthy whitetail hunting. Located in the heart of Southeast Iowa’s legendary Skunk River whitetail country, this farm sits near the Jefferson and Henry County line and is truly a premium recreational property featuring over 1 full mile of Skunk River frontage, multiple ponds, springs and creeks, tillable land in CRP, food plots, a diverse mix of beautiful timber, and more! Held within the same family for over four generations, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly remarkable piece of Iowa’s farmland heritage. They say you may only get one shot at buying a farm in your lifetime - this is one of those rare opportunities. This 50/50 combination farm features 122+/- certified tillable acres currently in CRP with contracts that expire between 2026 and 2031 with a total annual income of $29,485. The main access runs to the east along the south side of the property out of the line of sight blocked by CRP providing strategic access to both north and south stand locations and fully networked with a great trail system that works its way further east into a bottom of CRP that is enrolled in a pollinator program and timber along the river. Further to the north, another food plot and secluded meadows of CRP surrounded by beautiful hardwood timber and the river. Whether you plan to continue conservation practices, expand food plots, or enhance and take advantage of the tillable production, the future opportunities here are endless. The bottom tillable ground in pollinator expires in the fall of 2026 offering flexibility to re-enroll in available programs in 2027, farm the acres, or cash rent them to a local farmer of which there has been expressed interest. The layout of the farm creates exceptional hunting opportunities. A natural pinch point on the southeast corner, where the hillside meets the river, funnels deer into a 40-yard wide timber travel corridor — a dream setup for all-day rut hunts. While photographing the property, a bachelor group of five plus bucks was observed feeding in the newly burned CRP, along with several turkeys showcasing the favorable habitat that wildlife love. There are several options for great archery stand locations throughout the property as well as late season food plots. More acres could be added into food plots on the main top field as part of the program it’s in without buying out any acres and without penalty fees. Up to 10% of the field not to exceed 5 acres. There are some great locations in this field for expanding or moving the existing top plot and access would be fantastic. The north pond is fully stocked and ready to fish! Beautiful natural springs and creeks traverse the farm and offer wildlife plenty of opportunities for water on different parts of the farm. This offering includes approximately 225± total acres, with finalizing of deed and title for an additional 10+/- contiguous acres gained through river egression. The full 225+/- acreage is expected to convey to the new owner upon the successful completion of the legal documentation already in progress. Don't miss your chance to own a once-in-a-lifetime farm in one of Iowa’s most sought-after whitetail regions. Shown by appointment only.
