US-460/Coalfields Expressway, Grundy, VA 24614

Blankenship Acres offers 216.49 acres of managed hunting and recreational land near Grundy in Buchanan County, Virginia, in the heart of the Commonwealth's Elk Management Zone. The property has been actively managed for wildlife with an established road and trail network, maintained forage areas, multiple elevated hunting blinds, developed wildlife ponds, wooded cover, reclaimed ground, and high ridges with long-range mountain views. The quality of the elk in this area is well documented. Virginia's current state-record non-typical elk was taken right here on Blankenship Acres during the 2022 managed hunt, an 8x9 bull that scored 413 7/8 inches net Boone & Crockett. Elk continue to use the property, while the mix of open forage, water, timber, cover, and internal access also provides habitat for whitetail deer, black bear, wild turkey, and small game. A high knob provides a great vantage point across the property, and the existing road system makes it practical to move throughout a tract of this size and terrain. Located less than five miles from Southern Gap Outdoor Adventure and convenient to Grundy and the US 460/Coalfields Expressway corridor, Blankenship Acres is well positioned for hunting and outdoor recreation in Virginia's elk country. The property consists of six tax parcels totaling 216.49 acres. Elk hunting is regulated by Virginia DWR through its limited-license program, and property ownership does not independently provide an elk license at this time.
