Natchez Hunting Lease376 Acres of Quality Hunting in Martin County Indiana~11627 Us Hwy 150, Shoals, IN, 47581Exclusive Hunting Rights - All Seasons and Species - Year Round AccessOffered via Online Auction

Two hunting lease opportunities will be available by online auction, offering approximately 157 acres (Tract 1) and 219 acres (Tract 2) of primarily hardwood timber in southern Martin County. Each tract may be leased separately for up to four hunters, or together for up to eight hunters.

Habitat: The property features mature hardwoods with abundant mast-producing species along with thicker cover that provides excellent wildlife habitat. Rolling terrain and seasonal creeks create a variety of natural features throughout the property.

Shared Pond: A centrally located shared pond provides a reliable year-round water source for wildlife and is accessible to lessees of both tracts.

National forest: One of the standout characteristics is its location adjacent to a large, remote section of national forest that is difficult to access from public entry points, offering hunters direct access to an expansive block of surrounding habitat.

Food Plots: Both tracts include open hilltop fields that may be planted as food plots, giving you the opportunity to further improve the property for wildlife. An established network of trails provides convenient access throughout the lease and can accommodate ATVs or pickup trucks for transportation and property management.

Access: An access road serves both tracts, leading to the common central access point and shared pond area. Additionally both tracts can be easily accessed from the other side (see map).

Accommodations: Both tracts have cabins that are included in the lease. Tract 1's cabin has electricity and a wood stove and will provide a comfortable place to stay during the season. Tract 2's cabin is completely primitive and would need repairs before use and is a bit difficult to access. It does have a small wood stove and could work for overnight stays with a little work.

Opportunities: The property offers opportunities to pursue whitetail deer, wild turkey, and small game in a setting that combines seclusion with practical accessibility.

Hunting lease liability insurance will be required.
