6190 State Route 365, Sturgis, KY 42459 - Crittenden County

This unparalleled property embodies the best of both worlds, seamlessly blending top-tier recreational use with lucrative investment potential. Spanning across two counties, this estate encompasses every type of landscape imaginable. With marketable timber that can be valued at millions, as well as expansive and fertile crop grounds,  there is no shortage of acreage that can provide returns. Hay and pasture ground further enhance the property's agricultural potential,  providing ample opportunity for livestock and grazing. There are two lodges on the property, each ideally situated for their intended uses. This fantastic opportunity is the home to Riverbend Whitetails, a premier destination for chasing Kentucky monarchs with each coming season. Featured on multiple shows and hosting some very big names, this property boasts some of the best hunting that one can expect in the state. With all of the needed elements to grow giants, this property is littered with wildlife. From miles of edge habitat to areas of dense security cover, multiple habitat types collide at massive timber blocks with an abundance of hard and soft mast. With food plots located in strategic locations, deer can be seen coming and going while utilizing the natural funnels and pinch points or working their scrape lines through a saddle. In all, these elements combine themselves well, making for a phenomenal piece of hunting property. The Lodge at Riverbend  Whitetail is exquisite. An open concept provides the ideal location to gather with friends and family. The commercial kitchen provides the needed assets to host events, serving as a practical use and opening the doors to additional income. The main lodge features a primary suite upstairs and four bedrooms in the walkout basement. The basement is an extension of the ground level, with additional space for communal gatherings, multiple bathrooms, and ample storage. Adjacent to the lodge are additional guest suites, each with its own bathroom and a shared lounge. This allows for the lodge to be utilized for entertaining, while guests who wish to retire early can do so in peace. Attached to the guest suites is a massive shop,  providing the needed space to store and service equipment that is used to manicure the property. A commercial walk-in cooler is in place,  providing ample storage space for harvested game throughout the seasons. Nearing an adjacent boundary sits Wild Wing Lodge. Featured many times in multiple publications, Wild Wing Lodge was once home to some of the finest upland bird hunting that western Kentucky has to offer. Though the business is no longer active, all of the needed amenities are in place. Sharing a similar design to Riverbend Lodge, this additional space opens the door to holdover guests, short-term rental, and event hosting. Leaving the curtilage of the lodge is a fantastic road and trail system.

One can travel between both lodges without ever having to touch the blacktop. This road system serves as a great wildlife travel corridor and provides unparalleled property access. Connecting key areas for various hunting seasons, the road meanders its way through fields of early succession, to ridgetops full of massive white oak, to river bottom ground affronting the Tradewater  River. These roads and trails are imperative for success afield and lay the foundation for a road system that can be used to pull out millions of dollars in timber, both adding to the return on the investment and improving the property for hunting seasons to come. Across the Tradewater River are large fields that continue for miles,  providing the needed acreage for high-yielding crop production, hay production, and grazing. With both perimeter and cross fencing in place, the ag portion of this estate is essentially turn-key, ready to yield returns for its future owners. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Properties such as this do not come available in this area. A private land mass of this size, continuous in nature, cannot be found anywhere remotely close. It is interesting to consider that the current owners have traveled the country and the world, chasing both large and small game. It is in western Kentucky, on this dirt, that they chose to plant their flag. This has protected the integrity of this acreage, keeping it whole, and now opened up the door to unbelievable opportunities for its new owners. Do not delay.
