PRICE REDUCED!! This is as rare as a property can get for private land ownership. Located in the Glade Top National Forest and only 30 minutes away from Branson, this property can be your dream getaway or full-time residence. The property has an amazing amount of large Smoke Trees where the grassy glade is dotted with the brightly-colored smoke trees (or yellow woods) that almost appear to be neon when lighted by the Ozarks sunshine. Wildlife observers will delight in the numerous species inhabiting this region. Whitetail deer, wild turkey, bobwhite quail, squirrels, rabbits, and many varieties of songbirds are among the wildlife seen along the byway. The glades also provide a home for wildlife not often encountered in the Ozarks, such as the roadrunner. Another one of the unique features of the property is a hill called The Pinnacle, which was the site of an old gold mining effort. Call today to schedule your private showing. Remember, buy land; they’re not making it anymore.

- Viewing Scenery - The Glade Top Trail is little changed from the original road constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the late 1930â??s. For twenty-three miles, the two-lane, all weather gravel road follows narrow ridge tops rising approximately 500 feet above the surrounding rolling countryside, and overlooks and passes through many limestone/dolomite glades interspersed with open and closed woodlands and forests. Along the trail are seven overlook â??pull-outsâ?? that provide panoramic views that reach to the Springfield Plateau twenty miles to the northwest and forty miles south to the Boston Mountains in Arkansas. In spring, smoke tree, serviceberry, dogwood, and redbud paint the glades and hillsides with blooming color. Each fall these scenic views are celebrated by local residents at October's

- Viewing Plants - Glade Top Trail and Caney Picnic Area offer many opportunities to see wildflowers spring through fall, including purple and yellow coneflower, Missouri primrose, Indian paintbrush, prairie roses, prairie dock, and most butterflies' favorite, milkweed. Missouri has among the greatest abundance and diversity of glades in the United States and the Glade Top Trail lies within the heart of some of the best remaining examples of this unique natural community. There is a high diversity of both common and rare plants native to these glades, and some wildflowers that can be seen along the Glade Top Trail include Arkansas calamint (Satureja arkansana), aromatic aster (Symphotrichum oblongifolium), Barbaraâ??s buttons (Marshallia caespitosa var. signata), Bushâ??s skullcap (Scutellaria Bushii), Gattingerâ??s goldenrod (Solidago Gattingeri), Missouri black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia missouriensis), Missouri evening primrose (Oenothera missouriensis), purple beardtongue (Penstemon Cobaea var. purpureus), purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea), rosinweed (Grindelia lanceolata), stenosiphon (Stenosiphin linifolius), silky aster (Symphotrichum sericeum), Spanish needles (Palafoxia callosa), Treleaseâ??s larkspur (Delphinium treleasei), and yellow coneflower (Echinacea paradoxa)
