Land

This property sits wrapped around a cove on the east side of Toronto Lake in Woodson County, Kansas. There are approximately 43 acres of hardwood timber, cedars and thick brush on this property.

There is a nice .4 acre fishing pond behind the cabin that gets to depths of 12+ feet deep that can also hold waterfowl.

This property sits adjacent to the US Corp of Engineers lands that make up Toronto Lake. That means you get private access to public lands and not only can you enjoy the land you own, but also portions of the adjacent parcels. Your hunting area is expanded and your hikes can go farther.

The cabin is currently configured to comfortably sleep 8 people and that could be expanded, if desired.

The property is fenced at the road and has a large, lockable gate. The cabin windows have lockable wood plywood coverings that can be raised or lowered with a pully system to help provide added security while you are away. There is also a motion light on the exterior.

Recreation

This is the ultimate recreation property that serves up hunting and fishing opportunities on a sliver platter. This property has a ton of diversity in only 54 acres. There are mature hardwoods right outside your cabin door that extend all the way to your western property line and beyond. This landscape is classic white tailed deer and turkey habitat, both of which can be found on this property. Down the steep hill, there is a creek bottom with a small creek that flows into the adjacent reservoir that provides water for all kinds of wildlife. Bobwhite quail can be found within the native grass areas that are surrounded by a dense stand of cedar trees. This property is not lacking habitat for all types of wildlife, including small game and predators, in addition to those mentioned above.

There is a wonderful private pond that sits just down the lane from the cabin that has super clear water due to its hard, rock based bottom. It also has a very steep bank that allows it to be quite deep for its relative size. It is estimated that the pond gets to a depth of 12 to 14 feet deep. The pond holds bass and sunfish and ducks can also be found using the pond.

Agriculture

There are areas on this property that could either be fenced in to allow for livestock grazing, or it could possibly be hayed as well.
