About this property
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.

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
