Bitter Creek 70

This gem of a property is nestled away in the southwestern part of Jones County near the community of Stith. Over three-fourths of a mile of Bitter Creek meanders through the property providing a scenic and natural cover for a variety of wildlife. The cool clear water from the creek provides an abundant source of water for wildlife and livestock. Two earthen tanks catch overflow from the creek. A small set of pipe pens is located near the entrance to aide with livestock shipping and sorting. With 40 acres of cultivation the property can generate income from crop production. Easy to access, the Bitter Creek 70 is a property ready for work or play. Rural water is expected to be available to the property in mid-late 2021. Call today for a private showing!
