Take a look at one of the best hunting farms hitting the market in Lucas County, Iowa! Stony Creek Farm, a 190 +/- acre property located in South Central Iowa, has a rich history of producing giant whitetails and turkeys! In 2021, a 212” whitetail was harvested from one of the food plots. The layout of this farm is as good as it gets. The hardwood ridge running along the southern boundary is ideal for big-buck bedding, with Stony Creek flowing just below. Tucked along the creek and in close proximity to the bedding area are 9 +/- acres of food plots, offering unimpeded access for mature whitetails and promoting daylight movement. These food plots can be accessed from the north, allowing hunters easy in-and-out access to their setups. Each food plot features at least one of the six hard-sided blinds on this property, including Redneck Game Changer, Muddy Penthouse, and Hawk Office blinds, which sit on elevated towers for efficient and comfortable setups. After the hunt, unwind in the newly built, two-bedroom, 1.5-bath lodge on the northwest corner of the property. Its location ensures minimal impact on the hunting grounds. This new construction not only provides comfortable living with over 1,300 square feet of space but also includes an almost 1,200-square-foot heated and cooled garage. The garage has a fully concreted floor and upgraded heavy-duty roll-up doors, providing extra space for guests or equipment storage. Outside, a large concrete slab offers a comfortable, clean surface beneath the two spacious lean-to areas on each side of the garage—ideal for equipment storage or as a sheltered spot to relax and enjoy the lodge's surroundings. Stony Creek Farm also offers substantial income potential, with 19 +/- tillable acres currently in production, 13 +/- acres of hay, and a healthy crop of walnut trees. This farm is fully set up and ready for you to experience all that Iowa hunting has to offer! In the fall, the landscape is highlighted by vibrant colors along the south ridge, and whitetail bucks actively cruise Stony Creek. In the spring, watch the farm wake up as newly planted crops and hay fields become a habitat for strutting turkeys. The farm’s past history and recent trail cam pictures showcase the high-quality wildlife on this property, including mature deer and promising younger bucks destined for the record books. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to own a premier hunting farm in South Central Iowa! The farm is conveniently located 9.5 +/- miles from Lucas, 24 +/- miles from Osceola, and 38 +/- miles from Des Moines. All showings are by appointment only.
