Description

70± Acres of Premier Waterfowl Hunting Ground – Ballard County, KY

 

Nestled at the confluence of the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, this 70± acre property offers a rare opportunity to own a slice of one of Kentucky’s most coveted waterfowl destinations. Bordering the Boatwright WMA refuge Swan Lake in Ballard County, this tract sits in the heart of the Mississippi Flyway — a hotspot for migrating ducks and geese.

 

Strategically positioned in the direct flight path of waterfowl headed to the refuge, this property is flanked by tens of thousands of wintering birds each season. It features private ownership of sections of three oxbow lakes – including the southern tip of Prairie Lake, the northern portion of Hunters Pond, and a small section of Swan Lake – offering unparalleled access to natural water sources and waterfowl habitat.

 

Key features include:

 

  • Levee field with strategically placed pits and blinds, ready for hunting
  • Power on-site with a pump system allowing controlled flooding from the lake
  • Gated entry ensuring privacy and security
  • Rich natural habitat with an established history of heavy migratory bird traffic

 

 

Whether you’re a serious waterfowler looking to hunt a legendary flyway or an investor seeking a unique recreational tract with tremendous habitat value, this farm delivers.

 

This is more than land — it’s a front-row seat to one of nature’s greatest migrations.
