This rare 44-acre tract is tucked within the boundaries of Fort Massac State Park, Illinois’ first state park, established in 1908 along the banks of the Ohio River. The area is known for its rich history, scenic landscapes, and quiet natural beauty. Once a historic military site dating back to the 1700s, Fort Massac has become one of the region’s most recognized conservation landmarks, blending preserved forestland with the peaceful flow of the river.
The property itself features rolling terrain, mature hardwood timber, and thick natural cover, making it an outstanding location for deer, turkey, and small-game hunting. The land has a secluded, private feel. It's perfect for a weekend retreat, recreational use, or simply escaping into nature.
Surrounded by the protected lands of Fort Massac, the property benefits from the park’s pristine setting, ensuring lasting privacy and scenic surroundings. Despite the secluded atmosphere, you’re still close to downtown Metropolis, making it convenient for dining, shopping, and travel while maintaining that peaceful, off-the-grid experience.
This 44-acre property offers a rare chance to own land inside a historic park. It combines history, recreation, and tranquility all in one. Whether you’re looking for a private hunting property, a quiet getaway, or a long-term natural investment, this tract captures the best of Southern Illinois living in an unmatched setting.
