Located in Illinois’ “Golden Triangle” core area, this Illinois hunting property would be hard to match. Adjoining Siloam Springs State Park to the East and McKee Creek to the South pretty much ensures trophy caliber whitetail bucks. Siloam consists of 3323 heavily wooded acres. 1000 m/l of these acres are restricted, allowing no hunting. The big bucks using this area as a retreat roll out in great numbers during pre-rut and rut, giving plenty of harvest opportunities to the hardcore hunter. McKee is the largest creek in this region. Most tributaries in the area flow into McKee. McKee Creek has always meant big Illinois bucks. Approximately 15 landowners, in two counties, own large tracts of land adjoining Siloam. Only approximately 6 landowners, in two counties, own land, which adjoins Siloam and McKee. This 356 tract would be one of the 6.
This Illinois hunting property consists of dense hardwood timbered draws and ridges to the North. Beaten down trails, rubs and ground scrape locations are simply everywhere. Also on the Northern border of this Illinois hunting property, a scenic, stocked lake is located, offering a great building site. In the center of the property, a simply awesome food plot is located within the timber. Surrounded by very high timbered ridges on the East and South, it offers perfect stand locations to intercept when deer are traveling from bedding to feed. The Southern portion of this Illinois hunting property has the majority of the tillable acres. The tillable is surrounded by CRP ground, which is heavily bedded by the many deer on this property. The CRP also provides excellent access throughout the Southern portion this tract. Additional food plots have been strategically placed where the CRP meets the timbered ridge, which falls to McKee Creek. This property has been trophy managed for optimum age structure and buck-to-doe ratio for many years. I have seen on many occasions, herds of 100-200 deer feeding in the valley on and next to this property. The SELLER IS VERY MOTIVATED. If this Illinois hunting property is something that would work for you, come take a look and we’ll go from there.
