Here is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own your very own private deer and duck hunting island. Arbuckle Island Cutoff is the largest privately owned island within the Arkansas River in the western half of the state. This property is like nothing you’ve seen and is an absolute paradise for the true outdoorsman. It encompasses the best of everything the river valley has to offer and leaves nothing to be desired for the avid deer and waterfowl hunter. The property is located just adjacent to the largest duck hunting WMA in the western part of the state, Frog Bayou. It is uniquely split into 2 portions. There are 131 +/- acres that are on the mainland side of the river and all but 11 acres of it is behind the main river channel levee. Then there are 310 +/- acres of the actual island that are completely surrounded by the Arkansas River. The island is also unique in the fact that it has levee access so you can drive a tractor or utility vehicle out to the island from the mainland for maintenance, planting food plots, control burning, and hunting. Once on the island, the trail system continues throughout the property for easy access to all hunting locations. The property is all behind a locked gate for controlled access.
The island is enrolled in a WRP easement, a plan with multiple levees and moist soil units for duck hunting has been implemented. There are numerous designated food plot locations for deer that have also been established within this plan. NWSG plantings have been included and firebreaks for control burning are in place. There are numerous box stands in place on most of the established food plots that will remain on the property. There are multiple moist soil units and ponds on the mainland property for duck hunting as well as a 6 +/- acre lake that is stocked and provides great fishing. If you are a hunter and fisherman there is literally a plethora of opportunities on this property. Deer, ducks, doves, wild hogs, wild turkeys, frog gigging, and fishing for about any species are all available on this dream piece of dirt.
The island is also located with convenient access to not only Fort Smith but you can be about anywhere in northwest Arkansas via I49 in less than an hour. This property is truly a unique paradise with unlimited outdoor recreational opportunities and it may not ever be available for purchase again in your lifetime.
