Approximately 370 acres has been clear-cut and are now in the fourth to fifth year of natural growth regeneration. This regeneration offers the perfect combination of cover and forage, making it highly attractive for whitetail deer and other wildlife. The returning vegetation creates abundant natural food sources, providing ample opportunities for establishing food plots that will be easily accessed from many of the trails on this tract. Along the county road, there are prime areas for edge habitat, helping to funnel deer movement through the property while also creating a great transition zone that promotes excellent biodiversity . The natural regrowth in these areas supports healthy wildlife populations, making this a prime hunting location.
The property also features a stunning oxbow off the Ouachita River, which runs through the east section of the land. This oxbow is surrounded by full mature cypress tree growth, creating a picturesque and thriving habitat for wildlife. The oxbow adds another unique feature to the property, offering the perfect setting for multiple hunting stands and strategic setups for whitetail deer movement along the waters edge.
The remaining acreage consists of standing mature hardwood timber, primarily oak, mixed with other hardwood species, ready for harvest. This timber not only provides a significant investment opportunity but also serves as key habitat for deer and other game. Timber stand improvement (TSI) practices would enhance future harvests while maintaining critical wildlife
habitat, and the oak mast production supports a thriving ecosystem for whitetail.
A county road cuts through the property, providing easy access to all tracts. This layout and diverse landscape create natural pinch points, travel corridors, and sanctuary areas for deer. In addition, the regrowth areas provide ample opportunities for food plots, and the combination of timber and open ground ensures a rich, diverse habitat for deer, turkey, and small game.
In addition to hunting, the property's proximity to the Ouachita River and its oxbow offers unique opportunities for fishing, waterfowl hunting, and other recreational activities. With its mix of timber and clear-cut land, the property provides an excellent balance of recreational use and long-term timber and wildlife investment.
Whether you're seeking to develop a premier hunting retreat or a solid investment in land and timber, 609-acre tract provides everything an outdoor enthusiast could desire. The oxbow, the timber, and the regrowth all combine to create a truly special piece of land with endless potential.
