DESCRIPTION

Randolph County had the highest kill count for the 2023 Shotgun Whitetail season, and this property just outside of Chester above the Mississippi River Valley stacks up! Whitetail or Turkey this one will deliver!

An abundance of potential for the deer/turkey hunter. There could be building lots along the blacktop road or a nice area to build a hunting cabin as there is electric and water at the entrance to the property. Access is made easy with a paved county road that borders the north side along with a written easement to cross the field to get to the back side of the property.
