Online only, ABSOLUTE AUCTION. Online Bidding: Begins January 21, 2025 at 9:00 am CST. Concludes January 23, 2025 @ 3:00 pm CST. For the first time in nearly a century, one of Kansas's premier hunting properties is available for purchase. Hayden Outdoors Real Estate is honored to present this exceptional recreational tract on behalf of the Sleeper-Hulsizer family, offered in an absolute online auction with no reserve on January 23, 2025. Nestled between expansive pastures along the Arkansas River and Salt Creek, just five miles east of Quivira National Wildlife Refuge, this secluded property stands out for its unparalleled location and incredible habitat for trophy whitetailed deer. The current hunting tenants have meticulously managed the land for over a decade, establishing food plots, travel corridors, bedding areas, and low-water crossings, ensuring the property is a haven for wildlife. Known for producing multiple trophy whitetail deer each year, it also offers some of the best late-season small-water duck hunting in the nation, as large flocks seek the live water when surrounding lakes and ponds freeze. Rio Grande turkeys are abundant throughout the year, and bobwhite quail thrive across the landscape. The blinds, stands, and feeders do not sell with the property. This legacy hunting property, marked by the confluence of Salt Creek and the Arkansas River on Tract 2, is among the most diverse and remarkable recreational tracts in Kansas. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a truly extraordinary piece of Kansas's hunting heritage. All mineral rights for this property owned by the Seller will transfer to the Purchaser at closing. Seller does not guarantee the amount of minerals owned, but believes the minerals are 100% intact. There is currently a hunting lease on the property which expires April 15, 2025.
