HARVARD, IL 60033 0 Hunter Road

Located in eastern Boone County, this recreational farm offers the ideal mix of habitat, access, and location to produce quality whitetails year after year. The property is accessed from Hunter Road, where a gated entrance provides both security and a convenient place to park without disturbing the rest of the farm. From the gate, a well-maintained trail system leads you into the heart of the property, with smooth access to stand locations, open fields, and ponds. One of the first destinations along the trail is an interior 2.5-acre open field. This secluded space is bordered by timber on one side and productive agricultural ground on the other, creating a natural edge that already sees good deer activity. It holds excellent potential to be converted into a lush food plot that could draw and hold deer all season long. Multiple coves extend off the north side of this opening, providing natural funnels for deer movement. Within this same area, two ponds provide a year-round water source for wildlife, with the possibility of expanding or enhancing them to further improve habitat diversity. The main trail continues into the northern portion of the property, where you’ll find a solid stand of hardwood timber. This area offers additional opportunities to clear out pockets for future food plots, increasing the farm’s ability to hold and attract deer. The surrounding landscape to the north and east is a mix of hardwood timber, large ag fields, and CRP ground, providing exceptional neighborhood habitat. This combination not only supports strong deer numbers but also enhances the chances of growing and harvesting Boone County–class bucks. Despite its private and rural feel, the property is conveniently located with quick access to both Route 173 and I-90. Whether you’re looking for a promising hunting tract, a property to develop into your dream whitetail destination, or a versatile recreational getaway with water and timber, this Boone County farm has all the building blocks for success in the field.
