Peabody has transformed thousands of acres of mine property into spectacular wildlife habitats for waterfowl, shorebirds, wild turkey, whitetail deer and upland game. Observe nature at its finest at our secluded, reclaimed properties, which feature a wealth of attractions for every taste. Hike the riverside bluffs and rolling hills, develop rich tillable farmland or harvest a record buck. Our featured properties are perfectly suited for trophy whitetail deer and incredible waterfowl hunting. In addition, our land provides abundant farmland and open pastures for grazing.
Many of the featured properties include deep clear lakes and small ponds, providing exceptional fishing and water activities.
Reclaimed land previously purchased from Peabody was of such high quality that the property has been transformed into The World Shooting and Recreation Complex by the State of Illinois, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, the Illinois Department of Transportation, Randolph County and the City of Sparta. The Complex is home to the Amateur Trapshooting Association and The Grand American, the largest shooting event in the United States.
