It is rare to find such a large river property in Illinois. This piece of land has been owned by the same families for decades.

Seeing the old cabin in person instantly fills your imagination with stories that can be told of the thousands of ducks and geese and the boatloads of fish that have been harvested from this land. While walking the deer trails through the maples and ash trees you can hear that mature buck, that has used this property as his safe haven for years, sloshing through the lowland swamps looking for a doe. The Sangamon river runs through this property and the Illinois river serves as the western border. Having both river systems tied to this land adds a dynamic level of value. You can utilize the much bigger Illinois river for fishing and boating along your island most anytime of the year. The smaller Sangamon River provides great summer catfishing holes that can be reached by wading or small boats. These two rivers have helped to create some amazing backwater lakes that can provide world-class duck and goose hunting opportunities. The backwater lakes can also provide some amazing spring and fall fishing for crappie and many other gamefish species. This property can truly provide enjoyment for the entire family at any time of the year. Not to mention a chance to own over a section of land for a great price. Call today for a private tour.
