Description

Are you in search of a legendary whitetail-rich property in Southwest Wisconsin? This Vernon County trophy whitetail goldmine consists of a sprawling 90.92-acres in the very heart of monster buck territory just minutes outside of Viola. These very grounds are a 100% proven commodity for big deer ranging from 130” to Boone & Crockett class size with over 1,000 trail camera photos in the past two years to prove it. Don’t believe me?

You’ll find this recreational escape just west of the small village of Viola directly across HWY from the best hang-out around for hunters and fishermen, Liberty Bar. The property is a true spectacle given the location, quality of game and characteristics. In fact, it’s only 10-miles from Viroqua where you’ll find lodging and additional eateries. The land boasts nearly a mile’s worth of river frontage of the West Fork Kickapoo River, which is a Class 1 Trout Stream famously known for prime fishing, tubing and kayaking.

The property’s main access and driveway is off County Road S, however, provides you’ll find key entry and exit points from HWY 56 as well as Willow Road – making it a seamless way to enter the grounds from the Northerly, Westerly as well as Easterly direction. This alone pays huge dividends when sneaking into your favorite treestand or box blind. There’s well over a mile’s worth of internal trail system meandering throughout the grounds for unlimited trail riding and easy game recovery.

In essence, the property is a vast river bottom sandwiched between two major ridge systems providing some of the most gnarly thickets, dense vegetation and marsh-pockets in the immediate neighborhood, which screams big deer habitat. From a macro perspective, the land is a giant funnel between large bluffs. In addition, the property lies adjacent to one of the most notable private land tracts in the state of Wisconsin consisting of 1,500+ acres. There’re also several other monstrous private land tracts nearby that practice high-end QDM. The results speak for itself.  On any given day, you’ll see new bucks venture into these bottoms from far away blufftops seeking refuge into the comforts of heavy bedding cover. The land as-is would make for a big buck paradise, quite frankly, it always has been. However, over the years, the landowner has meticulously crafted and devised some of the hunting setups to be completely foolproof with an array of stand locations and food plots.

You’ll find (2) strategically placed box blinds on the property with a mix of (9) ladder and hang-on stands in preferred hot spots. All hunting locations can be carefully accessed with little intrusion due to the river and multiple access roads. There are (5) food plots on the property totaling about 3-acres worth of groceries. These plots range from clover to turnip mixes and winter wheat. Most of the stand sites have licking branches, vines or ropes that are perennial scrape locations – perfect for gathering intel on the neighborhood whitetail. The deer trails on this piece look like trampled cattle paths and I’d bet you’ve never seen anything quite like it. Just south of the land is destination row crop and where many deer congregate during the evenings and wee hours of the morning before slipping back into the depths of this tract.

I’ve been in real estate for nearly a decade serving Southwest Wisconsin. I’ve sold over 30,000 acres of land ranging from agriculture, to timbered ridges and everything in-between. This property is unquestionably “Brandon Wikman & Joe Nawrot Approved.”  It’s not often that we’ll find a property that provides everything a hunter could ever dream of in such a small package without our clients having to spend millions of dollars. I’ve personally known about this property for many, many years and can guarantee you that you won’t find a better deer hunting tract at this price anywhere else in Southwest Wisconsin.

Properties like this rarely exist in the marketplace and sell extremely fast. The taxes are $979.24+/- per Vernon County Tax Summary. A portion of the land is enrolled in WRP (Wetland Reserve Program).

You may ask, why would someone sell such a miraculous deer hunting retreat? The answer is rather simple. The owner recently purchased ground in central Wisconsin and is building a home closer to where he lives and works. This and this alone is the only reason the property is on the market. Please note that the property is not buildable due to the flood plain of the river, however, haul a camper to the SE open area for a campsite or stay at any of the nearby hotels or rustic Airbnb hot spots right here: https://bit.ly/Viola_Airbnb
