Crawford County, Wisconsin – Land For Sale | Some hunting properties check boxes. This one checks the boxes that matter.
Located near Gays Mills, Wisconsin, this 129+/- acre hunting tract sits in a well-known trophy buck area and is surrounded by approximately 3,800+/- acres of QDM-minded neighboring land. That kind of neighborhood matters. Large surrounding parcels, quality habitat, and a shared mindset for mature whitetails help create the type of area serious deer hunters spend years trying to find.
The property itself has been laid out with hunting in mind. Established trails run throughout the land, giving access to stand locations, food plots, timber, bedding areas, and travel corridors. Strategically placed food plots help pull deer through the property, while the mix of walnut, oak, maple, large pine, cherry, and apple trees provides habitat diversity, natural food sources, and strong cover. From the trail system to the stand locations, this property is built to hunt efficiently.
A 32’ x 64’ outbuilding adds major value and convenience. Half of the building is set up for storage, giving you room for equipment, UTVs, tools, and hunting gear. The other half is set up as living quarters, making it a practical base camp for hunting weekends, land management work, or simply spending time on the property. The LP tank is included. There is no well or septic system on the property.
Access is provided by a surveyed and deeded easement, giving the property a defined legal access route. Once you are on the land, the privacy, layout, and surrounding landowner base make it clear why this property stands out.
If you are looking for a serious whitetail property near Gays Mills with food plots, trails, stand locations, diverse timber, a usable base camp, and a neighborhood known for mature deer, this 129+/- acre tract deserves your attention. This is not just vacant land. This is a proven hunting setup in the kind of area hunters talk about, but rarely get the chance to own.
