This once-in-a-lifetime property near Salem, Iowa represents a chance to experience and own one of the most iconic hunting farms in all of North America. Now under different ownership, this is the original farm where Lee and Tiffany Lakoksy planted roots in southern Iowa, and launched their careers into the national spotlight - captivating an audience by showcasing many of the highest caliber whitetails ever captured on film. This significantly rare opportunity is offered with two homes, insulated shops, farm equipment, and blinds in place for you to experience a true real estate masterpiece.
Farm:
Specific components make this farm special, starting with the 400 acre forest on the eastern half. The abyss of timber is a sanctuary for deer to grow old, and a network of food plots in the heart of it was designed for encountering target bucks as they feed and check scrapes. Here, it's quite possible that you’ll come to full draw on the largest deer of your life.
Just west of the timber is a vast bottom field wrapped by Little Cedar Creek; a rock-bottom stream that is a crucial live water source and travel corridor. As you approach the field from the north, the view makes you feel like you’re entering the ultimate hunting arena. This huge field is the key destination for evening feeding, with 20 acres planted in grain, clover, alfalfa, and brassica food plots. The other 36 acres in this area are cash rented for row crops and alfalfa. Access to the two blinds in this part of the farm are concealed with Sorghum and Switchgrass.
Moving west, the farm transitions into an alluring blend of hidden coves, brushy edges, and farmland that engulfs more big timber. One of these fields is the most beautiful clover plot I have ever seen; embedded in an area that allows multiple approaches to hunt. This secluded clover field is long, with the blind in the bottleneck for close encounters.
Another major component is the 15 mile internal trail network across the farm. The owner has enhanced the road system and creek crossing to transport heavy equipment for planting food plots and filling offseason feeders.
Main House:
One word describes the main house and shop - immaculate. The owners spared no expenses taking these improvements to the next level from when the Lakoskys originally owned it. The main house is a gorgeous four bedroom, five bathroom lodge style with brand new appliances and furniture. Above the garage is a guest studio with a kitchenette, living room, large bedroom, and two baths. The main kitchen/great room area has high ceilings and a stone fireplace - the perfect area to gather after the hunt. Countless memories have been made in this room over the years, when some of the most notable country music stars celebrated after a great hunt. You’ll also enjoy the hunting room on the backside of the great room; an area designated for tuning your bow and getting dressed for the hunt. You’ll step out of the hunting room onto the concrete apron, and have eight 4x4 Block archery targets that are illuminated for shooting at night. Behind that range is a 25 target 3D animal archery course and a 100 yard gun range.
Shop:
A brand new shop compliments the house design, comes with two level full length shelving, compressed air, high pressure water system, and fuel tanks. Construction includes heavy gauge steel, insulated overhead doors, and closed cell spray foam insulation. The entire platform of the main house and shop is new concrete. On the back of the shop is a tall lean-to for keeping large equipment protected from the elements.
Second House:
One half mile west of the main house is the second dwelling - a ranch home and complimentary Morton building that would make an ideal place to host guests, or for a farm manager to utilize. This house has three bedrooms on the main level and two non-conforming bedrooms in the basement. The basement also has a walkout to a large patio.
Equipment:
A full arsenal of equipment comes with the offering, from the tractor to its implements - you’ll have everything you need to grow food plots, maintain the vegetation, and easily fill feeders for the offseason nutrition program.
With this offering, you can literally step into a fully turnkey experience from all of the blinds and trail cameras that are already set, the equipment on the farm, and plenty of places to host people. There's nothing you need to do other than come here and enjoy some of the finest trophy hunting in all of southern Iowa.
