The area is equally well known for its outstanding hunting opportunities. Thousands of acres of Nebraska Game and Parks public lands and Open Fields and Waters (walk-in hunting access) provide exceptional access for sportsmen pursuing upland game birds, including pheasants, bobwhite quail, and prairie chickens. Chase County and the surrounding counties are also recognized for producing excellent populations of both whitetail and mule deer, making the region a highly desirable destination for archery and firearm hunters.
Outdoor enthusiasts will also appreciate miles of scenic gravel roads for cycling, ATV and UTV riding, wildlife photography, birdwatching, and hiking through the rolling prairie landscape. The nearby Republican River Valley and Frenchman Creek offer additional opportunities to explore Nebraska’s natural beauty.

Agriculture
The property offers several opportunities for those interested in a small-scale agricultural or hobby farm lifestyle. A dedicated chicken and goat house provides space for raising livestock, while the 9.18-acre pasture located across the road is well suited for horses, a few head of cattle, or other grazing animals. If livestock isn’t part of your plans, the pasture can continue to be maintained in native wildflowers and pollinator habitat, providing excellent cover and forage for wildlife while adding to the property’s natural beauty.
An additional asset is approximately 66,000 bushels of grain storage, offering flexibility for a variety of uses. The bins can support a farming operation, provide convenient on-site grain storage, or generate supplemental income through leasing to neighboring producers. Combined with the large shop, open pasture, and existing livestock facilities, the property offers practical agricultural amenities while maintaining the feel of a well-kept rural acreage.
