About this land

Located approximately 7 miles south of Springview in Keya Paha County, Nebraska, this approximately 650± acre property offers a combination of recreational land, productive grazing pasture, and diverse wildlife habitat within the Niobrara River Breaks region. The ranch features rugged topography, pine-covered ridges, spring-fed Jewett Creek, mature timber, and open creek-bottom meadows that create a landscape well suited for outdoor recreation, wildlife management, and agricultural use. Spring-fed Jewett Creek flows through the property, providing a reliable year-round water source and creating a diverse riparian corridor. The creek is bordered by mature oak and cottonwood trees, while numerous open meadows are tucked along the valley floor. These openings may provide opportunities for wildlife habitat improvements or food plot locations. The combination of live water, mature timber, and natural openings contributes to the property's diverse habitat conditions. The property is located within Nebraska's Niobrara River Breaks, and Nebraska Elk Unit 7, an area recognized for its rugged terrain and diverse wildlife populations. The landscape includes ponderosa pine-covered hillsides, wooded draws, rolling ridges, and creek-bottom habitat that provide cover, forage, and travel corridors for wildlife. Active game trails are visible throughout the oak and cottonwood creek valley, reflecting regular wildlife movement across the property. The ranch is recognized for its strong hunting opportunities. The combination of year-round water, mature timber, dense cover, native grasslands, and varied terrain supports populations of whitetail deer, Merriam's turkey, and elk. The rugged pine-covered hills provide cover for elk, while the creek valley and wooded draws offer habitat commonly utilized by deer and turkey. Several ridge tops have undergone cedar tree clearing, improving native grass production while maintaining the property's natural character and wildlife habitat. The remaining stands of ponderosa pine, oak, cottonwood, and native vegetation provide a balance of cover and open areas across the ranch. An established network of internal trail roads provides access throughout much of the property, allowing convenient travel for livestock management, hunting access, wildlife management activities, and general recreation. The ranch also includes quality fencing and productive hard grass pasture suitable for cattle grazing. Power is available on the property, providing flexibility for future improvements. Several locations throughout the ranch may be considered for future building sites overlooking the surrounding hills, creek valley, and timbered landscape. Additional acreage may also be available for purchase, providing an opportunity to expand the overall landholding. Availability, pricing, and terms should be confirmed with the listing broker. The property is conveniently located approximately 7 miles south of Springview, Nebraska, 20 miles north of Ainsworth, Nebraska, 265 miles east of Rapid City, South Dakota, and approximately 265 miles west of Omaha, Nebraska. Springview and Ainsworth provide agricultural services, dining, fuel, lodging, and other everyday amenities. This Keya Paha County property combines year-round live water, productive grazing pasture, established infrastructure, and diverse wildlife habitat within one of Nebraska's most recognized recreational regions. The combination of spring-fed Jewett Creek, mature timber, open meadows, internal trail roads, power availability, and rugged terrain offers flexibility for buyers seeking recreational use, livestock grazing, wildlife habitat management, or a combination of these uses.

Questions to ask before you buy

Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
