Property Details

Located in southwest Richland County, just a few miles from the Crawford County line, this 153+/- acre whitetail paradise offers a textbook hill-country layout for chasing trophy-caliber bucks. Featuring top access from the end of a dead-end road, miles from any major highway, it is seemingly as far off the beaten path as it gets. A ridgetop tillable field sprawls from west to east along the highest elevations of the tract with numerous points and secondary ridges stretching to the north and south creating a wide range of options for stand locations, food plots, and habitat management.

At the end of Shimmering Ln., the property is accessed via a short, recorded easement for ingress/egress and utilities to accommodate a future ridge top home, cabin, or simple camp. The terrain of the field, combined with strategically placed screening fences, lets you arrive at camp, head to the woods, or return after dark without alerting deer that may be using the rolling, twisting crop field or your food plots.

Secluded fingers of the field shooting off to the north and south have been planted as food plots in previous years, creating staging areas as deer flow from hillside bedding toward your destination field. Some of these setups are accentuated by water holes and mock scrapes. Areas of screening fence combined with standing corn aid in ingress/egress to stand and blind locations.

Recent timber management has produced a flush of early successional growth, a buffet of browse and quality bedding cover. The variety of secondary and tertiary ridges, subtle points, and valleys gives deer the diverse aspects they need across nearly any season or wind condition. South-facing slopes soak up sun during northerly winds and cold months; north-facing aspects stay cooler in summer and southerly winds; several east-facing slopes see steady use given the predominant westerly winds. Logging roads and trails wind throughout the terrain to aid in habitat work, deer recovery, and stand maintenance.

The combination of top access, seclusion, terrain, and habitat create a hill country layout that has become increasingly more difficult to find in one of Wisconsin’s premier counties for chasing mature whitetails.
