About this home
Small hunting tracts with exceptional recreational value are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Southern Indiana. Located between Fargo and Bacon in southern Orange County, this 6.8± acre property offers an outstanding combination of Dillard Creek frontage, mature timber, productive whitetail habitat, and direct access to Hoosier National Forest, all just minutes from the eastern side of Patoka Lake. Situated in the quiet community of Sleepy Valley, the property is tucked away at the end of a dead-end county road, providing a secluded setting for hunting and outdoor recreation. Access is provided by a 20-foot recorded easement from County Road 50 West, crossing Dillard Creek via a low-water crossing. The creek forms the entire eastern boundary, providing a dependable water source and natural travel corridor that consistently attracts deer and other wildlife. A major advantage is the property's favorable northeast access, allowing hunters to enter and exit with minimal disturbance under a variety of wind conditions. Heavy deer trails follow the creek, creating predictable travel routes and excellent stand locations. Larger surrounding tracts further enhance wildlife movement throughout the area. The habitat transitions from productive bottomland timber, including sycamore, cottonwood, walnut, and maple, to quality upland hardwoods featuring several mature white oaks that provide valuable mast production and long-term timber potential. Perhaps the property's greatest feature is its direct western boundary with approximately 70 acres of landlocked Hoosier National Forest. Because public access is extremely limited, this section receives very little hunting pressure, effectively expanding your hunting opportunities to nearly 80 acres when combined with the private tract. Patoka Lake is only a short drive away, offering boating, fishing, kayaking, camping, and additional public recreation. This property is ideal as a hunting retreat or weekend getaway and is not considered suitable for a permanent residence. The adjoining landowner may allow short-term RV parking along the easement by private agreement, subject to buyer verification. Whether you're seeking an affordable hunting property, recreational escape, or manageable tract with excellent habitat and access to rarely hunted public land, this Orange County property offers an opportunity that's becoming increasingly hard to find....
