This excellent property is located just over 1 mile from the Saline River in Ellis County, KS, and features excellent cropland, native grassland, and great hunting habitat. This area has an extensive history of trophy whitetail deer genetics, plentiful populations of upland birds, and great turkey numbers, as well. A large grove of cottonwoods run through the western portion of the property, surrounded by several acres of cropland. There are over 100 total cropland acres on the property providing good income return, on a crop-share basis, as well as providing a tremendous food source for wildlife. Hundreds of cedar trees were planted along the field edges in 2018 and are off to a terrific start! The 170+ acres of fenced pasture are open for the 2023 grazing season and can be left idle of any livestock if one chose to reserve these acres for wildlife. A water well feeds the stock tank on the farm. This water source is very important for livestock, and critical for deer and other wildlife in years of drought like we’ve experienced in 2022. There is also electricity in place at the old farmstead providing infrastructure for a cabin to be built, or even a nice spot for a country home.

If you are interested in a great combination farm with recreational opportunities within 25 miles of Hays, KS, this farm is a terrific option that should check all the boxes.
