With excellent road frontage along Iris Hill Road, the main entrance leads to a grass parking area near the northern portion of the farm. The property is highly accessible, with lanes on both the north and south sides that make it easy to navigate from one end to the other. The Jane Addams Trail borders the property, providing a well-maintained route that can be used to travel quickly across the landscape. As you follow the lane south through the property, you'll pass multiple timbered duck holes that provide ideal habitat for waterfowl. The maintained lane continues through the heart of the property, connecting the various features that make this tract so special. Toward the southern section sits a secluded, off-grid cabin surrounded by timber and tucked away from the road. Powered by solar and equipped with a wood stove and propane cooktop, it serves as a comfortable basecamp for weekends in the outdoors. Several small sheds provide additional storage, and there is an older log cabin that could be restored to add even more rustic charm. This area makes a great gathering spot for grilling, campfires, and swapping hunting stories after a day afield. The interior of the property has a variety of timber types with several open pockets that could be expanded into food plots or improved wildlife areas. Scattered throughout are several duck holes and wetland pockets that attract migratory birds and create a strong mix of cover and water sources. Richland Creek forms the western boundary and flows into the Pecatonica River downstream, providing excellent fishing opportunities along with a natural corridor for deer and turkey. The combination of timber, wetlands, and creek bottom creates an outstanding mix of habitats that support deer, ducks, turkey, and fish. The diversity of this property makes it suitable for nearly any outdoor pursuit, whether you are focused on hunting, habitat management, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of nature. Although the setting feels private and remote, it is only a short drive to US-20 and I-90, offering quick access to surrounding towns and amenities. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly versatile recreational property in Stephenson County with a mix of water, timber, and wildlife habitat that is ready to be enjoyed from day one.
