144+/- Acre Hunting and Cattle Pasture on Silver Creek
This 144+/- acre pasture is located southwest of Arlington, Kansas in Reno County. This exceptional property offers a mix of agriculture productivity and recreational pursuits making it ideal for cattle ranchers and hunting enthusiasts. Divided into two fully fenced parcels, this pasture provides a great setup for grazing cattle. The first parcel is expired CRP grass and is ready for summer grazing. A substantial shelterbelt bisects the two fields of native grass and provides the perfect location for bowhunting whitetail deer or turkeys. The north side of the shelterbelt has been worked up, allowing the potential for planting a wildlife food plot in the spring. The grass recently came out of the CRP program and provides opportunities for both pheasant and quail hunting. This native grass could also be used as additional cattle grazing acres and is fully fenced with newer fence built along the south and west roads. The second parcel is native grass pasture with a half-mile of Silver Creek meandering through. The center portion of the creek contains a flattened natural rock formation comprised of red shale. This unique site allows a spot for vehicles to drive across the creek to access the northeast section of the pasture. It also provides a recreational swimming spot to cool off during those hot days in the Kansas summer. With a solid surface bottom, the water remains crystal clear while wading around. Situated on the south side of Silver Creek, there is a runoff pond which provides additional opportunities for waterfowl hunting and fishing. This 85.3-acre parcel is enrolled in the EQIP program and has followed a prescribed grazing plan creating a healthy stand of grass. This responsible land management practice promotes sustainable grazing, enhances soil health, and ensures the long-term productivity of the pasture. Firebreaks have been prepared around the perimeter for a planned springtime burn. There are two new water wells with pumps, solar panels, and stock tanks that will convey to the new owner. This pasture is available immediately for turning cattle out in the spring. The combination of a live water creek, diverse habitat, lush grazing grass, upland bird and deer hunting, and waterfowl hunting opportunities makes this place truly one of a kind!
