This incredible tract features two private lakes totaling nearly 28 acres, including a stunning 20.5-acre lake and a second 7.5-acre lake. Both lakes are well-stocked with bass, crappie, bluegill, walleye, and perch-providing exceptional, year-round fishing right on your own property. The recreational value is further elevated by outstanding waterfowl hunting opportunities, thanks to the property's location directly across from Cameron National Wildlife Refuge and just one mile from Billsbach Lake. These neighboring no-hunting areas create a natural sanctuary effect, helping to attract and hold ducks and geese in the immediate area. In addition to the lakes, the property boasts approximately 1,000 yards of frontage along the Illinois River, as well as a rare 1-acre private island offering endless opportunities for exploration, hunting setups, or a secluded getaway spot. With frontage along the Illinois River, the property offers significant upside for river-based ventures such as a marina concept, boat access point, duck hunting club, or recreational retreat business. Whether you're an avid angler, waterfowl hunter, or simply looking for a unique recreational investment, this property delivers an extraordinary combination of private water, river frontage, and premier habitat in a highly sought-after location.
