Here’s the premier river bottom whitetail hunting ground nearly every buyer is looking for! This exceptional farm is nestled along the Smoky Hill River, just 4 miles from Bunker Hill, 10 miles SE of Russell, and 10 miles SW of Wilson Lake. Conveniently located only 3 miles south of the Interstate 70 Bunker Hill exit, this farm offers easy access without sacrificing seclusion. The land features a rare and balanced mix of nearly 50/50 tree cover to cropland, creating an ideal environment for producing and attracting trophy whitetail deer and strutting tom turkeys.

The Smoky Hill River meanders through the southeast corner of the property, while a timbered creek channel runs through the western half, adding valuable wildlife habitat and ‘edge’ that encourages deer and turkey movement throughout the farm. Toward the north end, about 25 acres of scattered tree cover and tall grasses form a natural visual barrier separating the road frontage from a large alfalfa field. Nearly 42 acres of cropland anchor the property, with approximately 35 acres devoted to lush alfalfa and the remaining 7 acres along the river currently in wheat stubble from the 2026 crop.

The abundant river bottom timber offers textbook ladder stand setups perfect for archery hunters, while several prime tower blind locations overlook the expansive alfalfa field at the property’s heart. Known for consistently producing trophy-class whitetail deer and sustaining excellent Rio Grande turkey populations, this area of Russell County provides incredible hunting potential and history. This property certainly benefits from the area where it is located, but also has the substance of a farm that will offer trophy deer and other hunting opportunities year after year. Food, water, and cover are the 3 elements for success in the whitetail world - and this farm has all 3.

For those of you on the hunt for a primetime piece of river ground, this is it (!), and this is not a farm to wait on. River parcels of this size rarely ever hit the open market! And this one is truly a gem, combining river bottom timber, dependable water, high-protein alfalfa acreage, excellent access, and a premier location within one of Kansas’s top trophy whitetail regions.
