Ohio is in the top 5 when it comes to B&C entries, with over 800 in the books. This ranch is the 2nd largest in the state of Ohio, with 8,500 contiguous acres. It is carefully managed to produce trophy whitetail and turkey. With 60 stand locations spread over 12+ miles, along with 40 trail cameras, they are up to date on what the deer are doing. With 5-6 hunters per week and 35 for the season, you can expect a quality hunting experience. The target is deer 140” and bigger, with a minimum of 130”. Hunting is done from treestands, ground and elevated blinds. There are no deer drives permitted, as drives are the largest source of wounded deer and miss-judgement of antler size.
The lodge is a beautiful place where besides hosting hunters can be used for corporate meetings, fund raisers, reunions and so forth. With the ability to sleep up to 20 guests and a fulltime chef in house this truly is a top end place to hunt from. The lodge has ample parking, internet, cell reception, cable television along with a restaurant level kitchen. Given that is also a full time cattle ranch if you like premium beef for dinner look no farther.
As an added bonus the property has 170 acres of water comprised of 14 lakes and 10 ponds that hold bass, bluegill, crappie and paddlefish. Additionally, they have stocked the lakes with 4,400 paddlefish.
The property has an archery range, 400 yard rifle range along with skeet shooting and a pistol range.
In 2024 opportunity on whitetails was close to 100% with an overall success rate of 70% with an average score of 140” and the biggest deer taken going 172”. A patient hunter during a 5 day hunt should have a great opportunity at taking a trophy deer.
Their turkey hunts are 3 days and are self-guided, but include lodging and meals. There is an abundance of birds in the area and historical success rates are very close to 100%. For the money, we see this as a great value for what is included, with similar hunts elsewhere costing much more.
