170th Ave, Lot#WP001, Slayton, MN 56172 - Murray County

This tract is a combination of two 40-acre parcels located ½ mile apart:

The South 40:

This property offers good hunting, CRP Income, and building potential less than 2 miles from Lake Shetek. Starting with the hunting opportunities, this tract sets up great for hunting whitetail deer, turkeys, upland game, and maybe even waterfowl. A creek runs through the property from east to west creating a great corridor for wildlife moving through the area. The creek is outlined with mature cottonwood trees and the southern hilltops have some mature pines. There are established tree stand and box blind locations overlooking the creek. The CRP acres are well established with native grasses and offer great bedding for whitetail deer and nesting habitat for pheasants. There is road frontage to 170th Avenue with field approach access on both the north and south end offering easy access to both sides of the creek.

The North 40:

Most of this property has been enrolled in CRP since the fall of 2015. Therefore, the habitat has been established to attract and hold pheasants throughout the fall hunting season. A creek runs through the northeast portion of the property. Surrounding the creek are areas of willows and hardwood trees. This additional woody habitat makes a great travel corridor for wildlife moving through the area. While walking this property, my dog flushed multiple pheasants, we saw ducks on the creek and buck rubs in the willows. This property has county road access with two established field approaches.
