Polk Road Farm, Walkerville The farm was most recently purchased in 2016. Since then, the farm has been actively managed to maximize opportunities for trophy whitetails and waterfowl. The surrounding property owners for several miles have cooperated with each other in an effort to harvest only mature whitetails. The result has been a drastic increase in the size of the deer seen and taken.  This farm was an active dairy farm in the late 1800's and early 1900's, using the same barn standing on the property today. There is a locally famous artesian well just off the northwest corner of the property, at the Leavitt Township Hall. The well for the house is in the same artesian vein as the township hall providing a great water supply. The waterfowl hunting is second to none. The large area of flooded timber, directly adjacent to a row crop field attracts hundreds of ducks and geese at a time. Approx 10 acres of mature timber on the east property line. Several thousand acres of swamp bordering the SW corner of the farm that holds lots of mature whitetails and frequent the seven well established food plots. Two areas of the farm were planted in switch grass as deer cover five years ago. It comes back thicker every year and the deer love bedding in it. One area is the very NE corner, blocking the East food plot from the road; the other area is in the pine thicket in the SW corner that has Beaver Creek flowing behind this honey hole area. In 2017, two culverts were installed. Both of them are straight south of the house, allowing farm equipment to access the farm south of Beaver Creek without going around to Beach Rd. The three elevated deer blinds are included with the purchase of the property. The entire house was gutted in 2017, almost all flooring and walls are new construction with an entirely new kitchen, master bathroom, bathrooms, all new carpet, bunk room added to the basement. The wood burner in the basement heats the house wonderfully and the chimney was cleaned 2024. The pole barn was Amish constructed in 2017. The front NW 24 acre field is currently in hay. The family of the neighbor across the street to the north cuts and sells the hay, which generates about $1,600-2,500 of annual income. Beach Road (previously a county road now abandoned), is the only access for the Beaver Creek Bow Club property owners to the South. In the summer of 2024, Beach Road was built up and reinforced, including a new culvert. I contributed $1,000 to the project in good faith and to maintain good relations with the neighbors, as I frequently use the road to access my farm from the east. The neighboring farms across the road to the north, as well as to the east and south, are all great neighbors, who look forward to meeting and working with the new owner. I will handle the introductions of the new owner to continue this important relationship. Located 20 miles to Lake Michigan and the Silver Lake Sand Dunes.
