This extraordinary 500-acre Southeast Iowa estate is a once-in-a-lifetime offering where world-class hunting, refined living, and unmatched amenities unite to create a retreat that is truly one-of-a-kind.
At its foundation lies some of the finest hunting ground in the Midwest. Managed under a premier deer management program, the land has been carefully curated for decades to produce trophy whitetails and thriving wildlife. Rolling hardwood timber, rich soil, and strategically placed food plots provide year-round nutrition and ideal habitat. Every acre has been designed with precision to deliver consistent results while ensuring long-term sustainability; a true sportsman's paradise. Designed with both habitat health and hunting success in mind, the property is outfitted with premium Redneck and Rutted Up Blinds, two Vail/Crush Feeders, six strategically placed water tubs, and an extensive switchgrass and screening system that ensures both security for wildlife and stealth for the hunter. Comprehensive timber stand improvement has been executed under the guidance of a forester and whitetail biologist, including a prescribed burn regimen to maximize growth, regeneration, and long-term sustainability. The woods themselves are a sportsman's dream; beautiful, expansive, and offering massive amounts of natural cover for thriving whitetails and abundant wildlife. Complementing the land are three large 20,000-gallon stone-lined ponds that bring both character and practicality to the farm. These expansive water sources serve as a dependable water supply for wildlife and create a natural draw for trophy whitetails and other game. A sizeable, all-season trail system provides seamless access across the farm, connecting to meticulously planted food plots. These plots feature a diverse array of high-quality forage, including Enogen corn, soybeans, clover, alfalfa, pollinator mixes, Roundup Ready sugar beets, and multiple varieties of brassicas and bulb mixes. Every field has been grid soil-tested, with amendments applied to optimize fertility and ensure unmatched productivity. The result is a premier whitetail property that blends science, strategy, and natural beauty into a world-class hunting experience. This is not just managed land, it is a carefully curated sanctuary, unmatched in quality and distinction.
At the heart of the property stands a custom six-bedroom, five and a half bath primary residence that redefines rustic luxury. A stunning three-sided wraparound porch encircles the home, finished with beautifully crafted stamped concrete for a refined touch. A towering fireplace serves as a focal point for stories shared, meals enjoyed, and memories made after the hunt. Featuring a spacious custom kitchen built with premium finishes and designed for both form and function, this is an entertainers dream. The custom wet bar is a true showpiece creating a space that is as functional as it is striking. Two expansive entertaining great rooms, 2 distinct dining areas, and an exclusive video archery range make this home a destination for both leisure and celebration. For added ease and functionality, the home features 2 separate laundry rooms ideal for handling gear, linens, and everyday essentials. Adding to its impressive amenities is the large walk-in cooler, delivering secure, climate-controlled storage to properly store game after a successful hunt. Among the most unique features are the specialized sporting spaces designed with the avid outdoorsman in mind: a fortified walk-in vault offering secure storage of firearms and valuables, a dedicated gunsmithing area for on-site maintenance, and a private archery shop ideal for tuning bows or honing skills. Rarely found in one property, these additions elevate the primary residence into a complete sanctuary for discerning hunters and outdoor enthusiasts.
A spacious, custom designed attached garage complete with heating and cooling enhances the residence with both function and convenience. Outfitted with 4 commercial-grade overhead doors, it provides exceptional accessibility for vehicles, equipment, and recreational gear. Built to accommodate everything from trucks and ATVs to boats and farm machinery, this garage combines durability with high end design- offering ample space, seamless organization, and the flexibility to meet every need of a luxury hunting retreat.
The grounds feature a professionally designed outdoor range, complete with seven lighted 4x4 Block archery targets under roofed stations extending from 20-80 yards. In addition, six illuminated gun targets are currently arranged from 50-400 yards, providing progressive distance options for marksmen. A robust, heavy-duty shooting bench engineered for both right and left hand shooters, delivers a versatile environment for precision practice and outdoor enjoyment.
Complementing the home is a breathtaking three-acre, 35 deep, stone-sided man-made pond; a centerpiece of both beauty and recreation. Encircled by maintenance-free composite decking, it is the perfect spot for fishing, relaxation, or simply savoring the view. A 24 x 24 covered pavilion transforms the waters edge into an ideal entertainment space, blending elegance and comfort in every season.
Adding exceptional utility is a 60 x 64 custom heated and cooled outbuilding, built to the highest standards. Perfect for equipment, ATVs, boats, or gear, this structure combines reliability with flexibility, offering ample space for storage, workshops, or future customization. More than a utility building, it is a polished complement to the estate, highlighting the seamless balance between function and luxury.
This farm holds rare distinction, having been previously owned and personally hunted and managed by Lee and Tiffany Lakosky- Americas most recognized hunting couple and stars of the Outdoor Channels hit series CRUSH with Lee and Tiffany. This property is nothing short of legendary. With dozens of Boone & Crockett bucks harvested and world-class genetics established over more than a decade, the Lakoskys hands on management over the years elevated the land to iconic standing- providing the foundation that continues to shine today. After acquiring this farm from Lee and Tiffany, the present owner has continued their legacy of excellence while implementing his own vision for the land. With more that 25 years of dedicated wildlife and deer management expertise, his stewardship has enhanced the genetics, expanded the habitat, refined management practices, and maximized the overall hunting experience. The result is a property that honors its past while standing stronger than ever as a true whitetail powerhouse.
Since acquiring the property, extensive improvements have been made to elevate its habitat quality, functionality, and long-term value. In addition to the development of the 3-acre 35' deep pond, the property was also expanded by 107 acres, greatly increasing both diversity and usability. Multiple new freshwater sources were introduced to improve wildlife reliability and distribution across the property. Significant permanent screening was installed to enhance seclusion and reduce pressure, while additional acres of bedding and cover were established to support healthier and more predictable wildlife movement. Comprehensive timber stand improvement projects were completed, focusing on forest health, regeneration, and species diversity. Large areas of invasive plant species were eradicated, restoring native growth and improving overall habitat quality. The property also underwent large-scale controlled burns in key sections to promote a richer, more sustainable ecosystem.
The property offers countless additional features and details beyond what can be captured here. From thoughtful touches to unique amenities, the estate is filled with elements that make it truly one of a kind. In addition to its premier food plots and carefully managed habitat, the hunting land itself holds countless additional features that set it apart. From hidden pockets of cover, strategically placed stand sites and blinds to natural travel corridors and diverse terrain, every acre has been expertly developed to maximize both wildlife health and hunting success. These unique elements, along with so many additional features not detailed here, further enhance the property's value and rarity.
This exceptional opportunity is truly turnkey- fully furnished and move-in ready. All furniture, televisions, small appliances, cookware, dishes, bedding and decor are included, ensuring every detail is in place for immediate enjoyment. Aside from personal belongings, and specifically excluded items, this property is offered as a complete package, allowing new owners to step seamlessly into a ready-made hunting haven without the hassle of outfitting or preparation.
