This existing cattle farm, tucked close to the base of Rich Mountain, is setup to truly be a turn key property. The farm is completely fenced, has a working corral, 4 ponds, and 2 barns already in place. Your herd will have acres of manicured clover and fescue for grazing while approximately 33 acres are currently in hay production during the summer. The tract currently does double duty as a Fox Pen for training coyote dogs and holding dog running competitions, thanks to a 5-foot web wire fence around the property.

The manicured pastures will make great areas for food plots, letting those bucks graze and turkeys strut. While the existing timber will make great bedding and cover.

The tract currently does double duty as a Fox Pen for training coyote dogs and holding dog running competitions, thanks to a 5-foot web wire fence around the property. If you are interested in focusing more on deer and turkey, creating some openings in the fence will allow you to transition easily to a hunting farm. The manicured pastures will make great areas for food plots, letting those bucks graze and turkeys strut. While the existing timber will make great bedding and cover. The property currently has a 1,200 sq. ft. metal lodge with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a full kitchen, and a loft area which will sleep several. The layout of the property offers several other areas that would make beautiful homesites, one with utilities already in place. The location of the tract, in a valley of the Ouachita Mountains, allows spectacular views of the surrounding mountains from throughout the property. The icing on the cake is the unlimited recreational opportunities within just a few minutes of the farm. Just a few hundred yards away is Lake Wilhelmina, a small public Game Commission lake with a reputation for excellent bluegill and red ear fishing. In 2011, the lake produced the state record crappie, at 5 lbs. The upper Mountain Fork River is less than 3 miles away, offering opportunities to canoe and fish. 10 miles away, you will find the charming town of Mena, Queen Wilhelmina State Park, Talimena Scenic Drive, UTV trails, and many other opportunities for adventure.
