2023 Hunting Leases
How the Leasing Process Works
Check out the list of available leases below, if you are interested in leasing one of these woodlots please email us (brad@cottonhanlon.com). Sorry but we will only send maps for one woodlot at a time. Once we hear from you we'll send you maps (county road maps and detailed map of the woodlot) and give you a two week window to review the property to see if you like it. At that point we'll draw up a lease for you and your group to sign.
If the lot is listed as On-Hold someone else is looking at it. If it is on-hold we can put your name on a waiting list, in case they decide not to lease.
Keep an eye on this site as we will be adding available properties right up to hunting season.

A rare opportunity for C-H a woodlot in the NYS northern zone. You can start your hunting weeks before the southern zone on this tract.

Or come here in the winter to enjoy the deep snow of the Tug Hill on your snowmobile as a designated sled trail runs adjacent to the property.

No worries about running out of areas to hunt, everyone can have their 'own' spot. Part of a much larger complex of land that C-H owns you'll be adjacent to other like minded lease groups.
