Description

135.5 ± Acres | Income-Producing Investment & Proven Trophy Whitetail Hunting | Mahaska County, Iowa Located approximately 1 hour from Des Moines and just 25 minutes from Oskaloosa, this 135± acre Mahaska County farm offers a rare combination of proven whitetail habitat, consistent CRP income, and attractive building potential. The property features classic southern Iowa terrain with creek-bottom timber filled with mature walnut and cottonwood, transitioning into ridges dominated by oak and hickory. Open acres are enrolled in native warm-season grasses, complemented by brushy fence lines and established food plot areas. South-facing slopes and overgrown pasture create dense bedding cover, resulting in a highly effective layout for producing and holding mature whitetails. The farm also supports strong populations of turkey, pheasant, and quail. Two CRP contracts generate a combined annual income of $14,516, with expirations in 2027 and 2030. The contracts allow for designated food plots and early successional habitat, enhancing both wildlife value and long-term land stewardship. Native grasses include Big Bluestem, Indian Grass, Switchgrass, and a diverse mix of forbs. Rolling topography provides multiple quality building sites with utilities in place, along with scenic pond views—making this property well suited for recreation, income, or a future home or cabin site.
