21319 Fantail Road Edgewood, IA 52042

Here is a chance to own a gorgeous 33+/- acre hunting farm in Iowa’s famed, Clayton County, that continues yearly to kick out the state’s top harvest numbers along with some incredible trophy whitetail specimens. This mostly timbered turn-key farm sits between Edgewood and Elkader and has the trail... camera photos, genetics and history to prove it will be an unbelievable farm for the new buyer for many years to come. The timber is a diverse mix of hardwoods, with maple and oak being prominently on display and healthy undergrowth and browse throughout. The fall colors here are really something to behold. The seller recently planted white and swamp oak on portions of the farm as well. There are 2+/- acres of tillable that are in established green food plots with a combination of different browse including turnips. The rich habitat on this farm is a wildlife magnet not only for deer but also for turkeys and variety of other birds. It is one of the few farms in the state with resident pileated woodpeckers. The area is known for a high turkey density and this would make a great spring turkey farm. There is an impressive groomed and maintained utv/atv trail system throughout with over 1.4 miles of established trails. The trails are strategically laid out to provide quick quiet and easy entry and access points throughout the farm to various key points where high deer travel is noted and stand locations are set. This farm is hunt ready with a combination of ladder, hang on and hard shack hunting options, 3 total, already in place that will transfer with the sale to the new buyer. There are year-round springs on the farm and there is a perfect location for a pond to be built. Quality fencing is in place on most of the farm. There is also an established graveled and leveled build site with great scenic hill-top views for miles looking to the east. This is the perfect spot for a camper or for a future home or cabin to be built. It is also on a part of the property that will not disturb the rest of the farm. There is a 1 year old 10’ x 20’ storage shed on the build site location with an 8’ overhead door that is a perfect place to store your atv/utv. With quality deer management practices in place throughout the neighborhood and its vast networking with very large tracts of timber and habitat in the area this farm will continually produce numbers of quality whitetails that Clayton County is known for. The seller harvested a 173” whitetail on the farm in 2021 and the trail camera photos show genetics and trophy caliber bucks you just do not see on every farm. This farm surely has everything in place for year-round recreational enjoyment. Continue reading
