Edson Wildlife Haven

A true outdoorsman's paradise in Northwest Kansas! Featuring a pond with exceptional fish and wildlife, especially for the area, established tree rows and wildlife habitat. This property is a wildlife sanctuary with vast variety of birds and game species! Land Explore 20.9± acres of diverse wildlife habitat — a true outdoorsman’s retreat with endless recreational potential or the perfect setting for your dream homesite. The land lies mostly flat along Road 29 and gently slopes east through the center, offering natural privacy from the road. The front portion provides an ideal site for a home and already includes a well-built shop.

Mature tree rows create effective windbreaks, while established grasses and native shrubs provide excellent cover for birds and wildlife. The property features five ponds in total, including a main pond tucked just below the shop and out of sight from the road. A floating dock invites you to fish or simply enjoy the peaceful setting, with a diverse fish population enhancing the experience.

The northern boundary is sheltered by a dense windbreak of cedar trees, complemented by stands of Norwegian spruce, blue spruce, and ponderosa pine scattered throughout. For wildlife habitat, a thriving mix of American plum, sandhill plum, fragrant sumac, and chokecherry thickets provide both food and cover — attracting deer, birds, and countless other species.

Improvements A 26′ x 50′ shop sits conveniently between the county road and the main pond, thoughtfully placed to support both recreation and land management. The building provides ample space for storing equipment, gear, and tools needed to enjoy and maintain the property.

Just nearby, a prime homesite offers easy access from the county road and overlooks the ponds to the east — an ideal spot for a future residence that takes full advantage of the property’s peaceful, rural setting.

Recreation The recreational opportunities on this property are truly exceptional for its size and location. The main pond, reaching depths of approximately 9.5 feet, supports a diverse and thriving fish population — including largemouth and smallmouth bass, yellow perch, bluegill, redear sunfish, and a small population of saugeye. Notably, the current Kansas state record yellow perch was caught right here on this property.

The pond is equipped with a solar-powered aeration system featuring lithium-phosphate battery storage, as well as an automatic fish feeder to maintain a healthy ecosystem year-round.

Beyond the water, this property serves as a genuine wildlife sanctuary. Mule deer and whitetail deer are frequent visitors, while elk and even the occasional mountain lion have been known to pass through. The area also supports excellent and diverse bird populations, including pheasants, doves, and bobwhite quail — making it a true haven for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts.
