This highly sought-after piece of secluded recreational paradise lies on the banks of the Little Sioux River. You turn off the main paved highway (County Highway 31) through the gated, shared quarter-mile entrance when you arrive at the property. There is an established gravel road system from when this property was previously an active gravel/rock quarry. The road system provides easy access all around the farm.It’s very rare to find recreational property in Iowa, where nearly half of the property is stocked with ponds or lakes. Having access to private ponds increases the outdoor experience for your family or friends. There is a perfect spot on the east side of ponds to pull in and set up multiple travel trailers for a weekend camping getaway. This property would also make for an excellent place to create a track for off-road Powersports or even a pistol/rifle range to sharpen your marksmanship skills. The possibilities are truly endless.The 8-acre tillable tract lies in the southeast corner and could be enrolled into a native grass CRP program, increasing the habitat and possibilities for upland bird hunting in the fall. The timbered edge along the Little Sioux is a natural funnel for whitetail and shows signs of the plentiful wildlife that travel across this farm.Whether you are an avid fisherman or an outdoor enthusiast, this tract has a ton to offer.
