Elk Head Lodge isn’t just a piece of architectural history—it’s a premier hunting retreat tucked away on 56+ unrestricted acres in the hills of Central Missouri. This land is a sportsman’s dream, featuring hardwood ridges, open meadows, and thick timber that create the ideal habitat for trophy whitetail deer and wild turkey. The wooded perimeter and rolling terrain offer natural funnels and bedding areas, making it easy to establish stands and blinds in strategic locations. With private land surrounding the property and no public hunting pressure, this land has been carefully managed to support a healthy game population year after year. The two private lakes not only provide serene views and fishing opportunities for bass, bluegill, and catfish—they also act as vital water sources for wildlife. Hunters will appreciate the ability to slip into a blind at dawn, enjoy a midday cast off the dock, and return to the stand for an evening hunt. The varied topography and mature timber create natural cover, allowing for bow and rifle hunting alike. There’s even enough room to plant food plots or bring in trail cameras to monitor seasonal patterns. Whether you’re hunting solo or hosting a group, the lodge's extensive public and private spaces make it easy to relax, entertain, and share your stories after a day in the woods. With the charm of a historic 1907 Prairie School lodge and the modern appeal of a fully updated hunting compound, Elk Head Lodge is a rare find. The guest house and vintage schoolhouse provide ample room for hunting buddies, family, or a caretaker, while the greenhouse and fenced pastures offer year-round opportunities beyond the hunt. Located just two hours from St. Louis, this secluded but accessible property is ideal for hunters seeking luxury, legacy, and unmatched outdoor adventure in one breathtaking package. Are you ready to hunt where history lives?
