Bottomland Bucks and Ducks — 105± Acres | Jackson County, Indiana
This is one of those properties that serious hunters talk about — and rarely get the chance to own.
Located in the heart of southern Indiana's most celebrated waterfowl and big game corridor, Bottomland Bucks and Ducks offers over 105 acres of WRP wetland ground bordered by the Muscatatuck River in Jackson County, Indiana. Surrounded on all sides by tens of thousands of acres of government conservation ground within the Austin Bottoms Conservation Area, this property delivers something that money alone can't manufacture — true seclusion, absolute quiet, and the kind of wildlife pressure that only comes from being in the middle of it all.
The wetlands have been carefully developed and maintained with engineered berms, water management, and a program of prescribed burns that keep the habitat in peak condition year after year. Duck blinds are already in place along the flyway, so your first season starts the moment you close. When the flights come through this corridor — and they do, season after season — you'll be positioned exactly where you want to be.
But ducks are only half the story. The same river bottom timber and wetland edge habitat that draws waterfowl in waves also holds quality whitetail deer throughout the season. This is southern Indiana big game country, and this property sits squarely in the middle of it.
Access is via easements on two sides with a gated entry, keeping intrusion minimal and the experience fully private.
Whether you're a serious duck hunter looking for a private club destination, a group seeking a shared recreational investment, or a conservation-minded buyer who understands the long-term value of WRP ground in a wildlife refuge corridor — this property delivers on every level.
