Deep River Farm is a legacy holding near Lanesboro, Minnesota, in Fillmore County, offering 501.51 deeded acres plus perpetual hunting rights on an additional 354.31 adjoining acres of rotated cropland. The deeded timber surrounds the exclusive hunting-rights ground to create an uncommon mix of secure cover and reliable food sources—an ideal recipe for world-class whitetail habitat in a region celebrated for producing 200+ class bucks. This hunts like a 900 acre farm - nearly unheard of in this part of the midwest. It is rumored that this is the largest contiguous tract of timber left in Fillmore County. Managed under QDM practices (and supported by like-minded neighboring landowners), the property is designed for consistent age structure and long-term herd viability. Enjoy 3–4 miles of established trails for walking or ATV access, Raaen Creek meandering through the landscape, and several man-made ponds built to support wildlife. Numerous blinds and tree stands transfer with the property, allowing you to step into a turn-key hunting setup from day one. There are estimates of millions of dollars in standing timber value across the massive ridges and long valleys of the Deep River Farm. A refurbished turn-of-the-century farmhouse provides a comfortable gathering spot and can serve as temporary lodging while you plan and build the home or lodge of your dreams. Located in Minnesota’s Driftless Region—defined by limestone bluffs, deep valleys, the nearby Root River and exceptional white-tailed deer hunting—this scale of contiguous wooded acreage is exceedingly rare and only available once in a generation.
