Located in the highly sought-after Point Township of Posey County, just west of Hovey Lake and north of the Ohio River's confluence known as “The Point,†this 240A± acre property represents a rare opportunity to own a fully engineered and intensively managed Wetland Reserve Program property. Designed for serious waterfowl and whitetail enthusiasts, this tract stands out as one of the most complete and functional hunting properties available in southern Indiana.This property has been carefully developed with multiple water-control systems and habitat enhancements to maximize hunting success and land-management efficiency. Featuring five separate impoundments, the farm offers the flexibility to flood individually, collectively, or in custom combinations. The system is capable of flooding approximately 65 acres under standard operation, with expansion potential up to 100A± acres. Each impoundment is fully equipped with levees, control gates, and strategic layouts, including islands, shallow feeding zones, and designated blind locations.A high-capacity 8-inch drilled well powered by a Mitsubishi diesel pump ensures reliable water management throughout the property. This infrastructure provides consistent control over water levels, enabling seasonal flooding and drawdowns to promote optimal habitat conditions for migrating waterfowl. The property's design mirrors proven concepts utilized in large-scale habitat projects such as Goose Pond Fish and Wildlife Area, offering confidence in both function and long-term performance.In addition to its wetland capabilities, the property includes approximately 20A± acres of established food plots spread across 11 locations. These plots are supported by over 150A± acres of 25-year-old diverse hardwood plantings, including burr oak, Pin Oak, and swamp white oak, all of which are actively producing mast. This combination creates a strong year-round food source for wildlife and enhances both deer and turkey hunting opportunities.The property also includes a professionally designed and stocked water-dog training pond, complete with coves and peninsulas that simulate real-world field-trial scenarios. This feature adds versatility and value for retriever trainers and hunting dog enthusiasts.Wildlife presence on the farm is exceptional, with a proven history of quality whitetail deer, turkey populations, and consistent waterfowl migration. Its location is a major advantage, positioned near expansive public conservation areas including Wabash Lowlands and Section 6 Nature Preserve, offering approximately 1,500A± acres of managed habitat, along with the nearby Hovey Lake Fish and Wildlife Area, which adds 5,000+ acres of managed ground. These neighboring properties contribute to strong regional wildlife movement and habitat continuity.Improvements include a 1.67A± acre campsite featuring two Sea Crate shipping containers for storage, a 16-foot carport suitable for camper coverage, and a 55HP Case tractor with implements for ongoing maintenance. The hunting infrastructure is already in place, including five box blinds, thirteen elevated stands (primarily two-person ladder stands), five tripod stands, one 16-foot pit blind, and two additional wooded waterfowl blinds.Beyond planted food sources, nearly 100 acres of low-lying ground can be naturally managed through seasonal drying and regeneration, producing native vegetation highly attractive to waterfowl. Existing ponds already support duckweed, a valuable natural food source that further enhances the property's ability to hold birds without additional planting.This property delivers a rare combination of scale, design, and functionality. With its strategic location near major flyways, advanced water-control systems, and diverse habitat, it is well positioned to provide consistent, high-quality hunting opportunities for years to come.
