<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve just found a hidden 42.10-acre
\nsanctuary tucked into the towering ridges of Wisconsin\u2019s Mississippi River
\nValley\u2014a place where an old farmstead, breathtaking Driftless topography and
\ntrophy-caliber whitetail country come together less than 20 minutes south of La
\nCrosse.<\/p>\n
Located
\nat W1486 Spring Coulee Road near Genoa in Vernon County, Wisconsin, this
\nextraordinary property occupies one of those intimate little valleys that seems
\nalmost completely removed from the outside world. Pull into the property and
\nthe landscape closes around you\u2014towering timbered ridges, sweeping green fields
\nand an incredibly peaceful homesite where there isn\u2019t another house in sight.
\nInstead, mornings begin with an orchestra of songbirds, deer wandering through
\nthe yard and sunlight spilling over the surrounding bluffs.<\/p>\n
This
\nis peace and quiet in its purest form.<\/p>\n
The
\nproperty encompasses 42.10\u00b1 acres and represents what was once an old
\nMississippi River Valley farmstead. Today, a beautifully maintained historic
\nred barn remains as the visual centerpiece of the property, standing proudly
\nagainst a backdrop of mature hardwood timber and steep Driftless ridges. Its
\nclassic architecture adds character that simply cannot be recreated and serves
\nas a lasting reminder of the land’s agricultural heritage.<\/p>\n
Nearby
\nis a 24×20 building offering simple but comfortable living accommodations for
\nweekend stays, hunting camp or extended visits. Inside you’ll find an
\napproximately 16×12 kitchen and dining area along with an 8×6 bathroom. The
\nproperty is already supported by valuable infrastructure including a 6-inch
\ndrilled well, septic system, 200-amp electrical service, electric heat and
\nfiber-optic internet.<\/p>\n
For
\nsomeone envisioning something more permanent, the property is also buildable,
\nopening the door to creating a custom country home overlooking one of the most
\nprivate settings imaginable. Build the dream residence while retaining the
\nexisting quarters as a hunting cabin, guest space or recreational headquarters.<\/p>\n
Around
\nthe homestead, the landscape has been lovingly maintained. A garden area
\nproduces rhubarb and asparagus, while established apple trees and berry bushes
\nadd another layer of country-living charm. It’s easy to imagine summer evenings
\naround the yard, autumn mornings watching deer filter into the field and quiet
\nweekends where the loudest thing you hear is the wind moving through the
\nhardwood canopy.<\/p>\n
And
\nthen there’s the land.<\/p>\n
Approximately
\nfive acres of open ground currently consist of alfalfa and clover, with the
\nfield having been rotated through soybeans and corn in recent years. From a
\nhunting perspective, this is an enormous asset. The open acreage creates a
\nready-made destination food source surrounded by heavy security cover and steep
\ntimber\u2014a combination that could be further manipulated into strategically
\npositioned food plots or wildlife habitat.<\/p>\n
The
\nremainder of the estate transitions dramatically upward into classic Vernon
\nCounty Driftless terrain.<\/p>\n
Existing
\nlogging roads switchback across the hillside, providing access from the lower
\nreaches through the mid-slope and toward the upper portions of the property.
\nFor the serious whitetail hunter, that terrain deserves attention. Steep draws,
\nbenches, points, transitions and upper-ridge travel corridors create the type
\nof natural funnels that make this region famous among dedicated deer hunters.<\/p>\n
The
\ntimber itself features an attractive mixture including walnut, oak and shagbark
\nhickory, providing both wildlife value and the unmistakable character of a
\nmature southwestern Wisconsin hardwood forest.<\/p>\n
Elevation
\nclimbs dramatically from the valley floor to more than 1,100 feet, creating
\nnearly cinematic hunting possibilities.<\/p>\n
Picture
\nNovember.<\/p>\n
A
\ncold northwest wind moves across the ridge. The leaves are down. You’re tucked
\nagainst an old oak high above the valley while the Mississippi River country
\nstretches away below you. Somewhere beneath the ridge comes the unmistakable
\ncrunch of leaves. A doe slips through the timber\u2014and behind her, one of those
\nheavy-antlered Driftless bucks this region is known to produce. <\/p>\n
That’s
\nwhy people dream about owning land here.<\/p>\n
The
\nsurrounding area has historically supported a strong whitetail population and
\ntrophy-buck potential, while the property’s combination of elevation, timber,
\nfood, cover and multiple access points provides the ingredients serious hunters
\nlook for when designing a Quality Deer Management property. Existing trail
\ninfrastructure allows a new owner to begin learning and hunting the farm
\nimmediately while still leaving tremendous opportunity for additional habitat
\nand food-plot improvements.<\/p>\n
Access
\nis another important advantage. The property offers the main driveway from the
\nsoutherly portion of the estate, along with additional access from the north
\nleading toward the open field. For a hunter, multiple access options can be
\ninvaluable\u2014allowing entry and exit strategies to change with wind direction,
\ndeer movement and hunting pressure rather than repeatedly disturbing the same
\nportion of the property.<\/p>\n
Yet
\nperhaps the greatest recreational amenity isn’t even on the acreage.<\/p>\n
The
\nMississippi River is approximately one-quarter mile away, putting some of the
\nMidwest’s most celebrated boating and fishing opportunities practically at your
\ndoorstep. Spend a November morning chasing whitetails from a ridge and a summer
\nafternoon fishing the Mississippi backwaters. Hunt turkeys in spring, maintain
\nfood plots throughout summer, watch the hardwood ridges explode with color in
\nOctober and retreat here whenever the pace of everyday life gets too loud.<\/p>\n
All
\nof this is remarkably close to civilization. La Crosse is approximately 20
\nminutes north, giving an owner convenient access to restaurants, shopping,
\nhealthcare, entertainment and regional amenities while preserving the feeling
\nthat you’ve disappeared into your own private corner of the Driftless Region.<\/p>\n
Annual
\nreal estate taxes are approximately $1,653, and importantly, the property is
\nrepresented as having no government program enrollment, giving a future owner
\nadditional flexibility in how the land is managed.<\/p>\n
What
\nseparates W1486 Spring Coulee Road from so many recreational properties isn’t
\nany single feature. It’s the combination.<\/p>\n
42.10\u00b1
\nacres. Historic Mississippi River Valley farmstead. Restored red barn. Existing
\nliving quarters. Well and septic. Fiber internet. Five acres of open ground.
\nMature hardwood timber. Multiple access points. Elevations exceeding 1,100
\nfeet. Buildability. Trophy whitetail potential. Mississippi River recreation
\napproximately a quarter-mile away. And La Crosse only about 20 minutes from
\nyour doorstep.<\/p>\n
No
\nsubdivision. No row of neighboring homes staring back at you. Just towering
\nridges, deep timber, an old red barn and a quiet little valley where wildlife
\nstill wanders through the yard.<\/p>\n
You
\ncould build a beautiful home here. You could create an exceptional hunting
\ncamp. Or you could preserve exactly what makes this place special and simply
\ndisappear here whenever you need to.<\/p>\n
Properties
\nthis close to the Mississippi River and La Crosse that combine true privacy,
\ndramatic Driftless topography, existing infrastructure, buildability and
\nserious recreational potential are increasingly difficult to duplicate.<\/p>\n
W1486
\nSpring Coulee Road isn’t simply 42 acres in Vernon County. It’s a chance to own
\nyour own hidden valley in Wisconsin’s legendary Driftless Region\u2014a legacy
\nproperty where the Mississippi River, towering ridges and some of the richest
\ndeer dirt in the Midwest are all part of everyday life.<\/p>\n
A
\nonce-in-a-generation opportunity to own a little piece of the Mississippi River
\nValley.<\/p>\n
