Whitewater River Honey Hole
Description
River access, right off the highway, close to town, tons of wildlife, great deer hunting... what more could you want?! How about mature timber and income from crop production? This property has that too!
Located right outside of Towanda, Kansas along Highway 254, this 42 acre piece of land is perfect for a personal hunting spot in close proximity to Wichita! The west side of Butler County in Deer Unit 15 produces great bucks every year and this property is no different. With 17 acres of mostly Class I and some Class II soil, you have plenty of space to plant food plots or keep the drillable ground in crop production. The remaining 25 acres is mature timber commonly found along riparian areas in Southcentral and Southeast Kansas. There are also a good number of large acorn-producing Bur Oak trees!
The Whitewater River flows along the western border of the property providing year-round live water and summer fishing opportunities! Several hidden creek drainages snake through the timber and offer additional water sources for wildlife.
If you dive deeper into the property, you will find deer trails galore! There are trails all throughout the timber and along the field edges. Countless rubs and scrapes are found along most travel areas. It is very apparent that whitetail deer, bucks specifically, live on and utilize this property frequently. Another benefit to being on a river system is the amount of bonus bucks you will see during the rut. Big bucks love cruising for miles up and down the river in November! If you examine an aerial image of the surrounding areas then you will notice that this property is a great bottleneck for deer movement. It is the connecting point between the river habitat to the north and south, and the timbered bedding areas to the west.
Access to the land cannot get any easier. Simply head east on Highway 254 from Wichita and hang a right on River Valley Road right before hitting the town of Towanda. Roads on the north and east sides along with railroad tracks on the south side create great entry and exit routes for hunting without disturbance.
Trail cameras are currently running on the property and wildlife pictures will be updated as they become available.
