495 Acres in Saint Joe, AR - $575,000

When it comes to recreational properties, this one has it all. Year-round creek, ponds, bluffs, ATV trails, deer, turkey, bear, hay fields, good timber, seclusion, and size, all at a great price. And not to mention, the Slip Rock Ranch borders the Buffalo National Park for over 1.5 miles! It offers value adding, county road access coupled with a story-book private entrance amidst large pecan trees. From there, the 25 +/- acres of hilltop hayfield winds its way east in a segmented fashion ideal for wildlife or cross fenced livestock. A number of short hikes from the property will yield the buyer access to the shores of the iconic Buffalo River, as well as incredibly high vantage points of its meandering, bluff-lined watershed. From a hunting perspective, this place is a blank canvas just begging for rotational food plots and habitat management. The possibilities are endless from a forestry management standpoint too, and a more than adequate trail system is already in place. When it comes to deer, it is obvious that the edge habitat of the only open field for miles is sucking in the critters with its food and cover. As for water resources, they are substantial. The perennial flow of Water Creek winds through the northeastern part of the property, with an accessible, picnic-style shoreline full of swimming holes and gravel bars. In addition, the hilltop hayfields contain 3 established ponds, one of which is home to some of the county’s largest bullfrogs. A very high percentage of manageable terrain in an otherwise rugged area, and absolutely unlimited potential await the buyer at this Ozark paradise.
