Just 2 miles south of Newell, Iowa, this extraordinary 87.29± deeded acre recreational property offers a rare opportunity to own a private escape where world-class outdoor recreation, income-producing land, and peaceful country living come together in one exceptional setting. Positioned in the heart of Buena Vista County and surrounded by productive agricultural ground and conservation habitat, this property delivers outstanding year-round enjoyment. Conveniently located just 15 miles from Storm Lake, approximately 65 miles south of Okoboji, 2 hours from Des Moines, and 2.5 hours from Omaha, this retreat feels secluded while remaining easily accessible. One of the defining features is the property's approximately 20± acre private prairie lake tucked quietly into the countryside. Enhanced in 2025 through partial dredging and stocking, the lake now supports walleye, bluegill, yellow perch, and may others. The lake serves as a regional destination for migrating waterfowl, creating exceptional duck and goose hunting opportunities. The surrounding habitat consistently produces excellent pheasant hunting. Located just one mile east of the Raccoon River Heritage Wildlife Corridor, the property also benefits from strong deer movement, particularly during the rut when hunting pressure pushes mature bucks into nearby sanctuary areas. This is more than a property—it’s a place to create memories for generations while enjoying everything Iowa’s outdoors has to offer.

Welcome to Wayuga -- named for 'serenity,' and once you turn down the wooded drive at 835 230th Street, you'll understand why. Tucked beneath mature trees in rural Greene County, this 3-bedroom home plus a flexible den (ideal as a 4th bedroom, office, or nursery) blends comfort with real character and charm. Start your mornings with coffee in the sun-filled 4-season room, looking out toward the property's signature feature -- a magnificent old oak standing on the hill behind the home, the very tree that inspired the original owner to build here. Outside, a thriving wildflower garden and birdhouses/feeders lovingly maintained by the owner draw songbirds, butterflies, deer and wildlife year-round. The detached art studio began life as a 3-stall horse shelter complete with feeders and converts back easily for a small hobby farm -- chickens, goats, or a horse or two. The 4-car garage includes one separate stall ready to become a workshop. Air source heat pump heating keeps utilities low, and Highway 30 is just half a mile away. This is rural Iowa living with room to create, grow, and breathe. Schedule your private tour today.
