Description

743.75 Acres in Indian Bay, AR - $9,899,000

Vernon Hartsfield's Big Creek Duck Hunting Club is steeped in Arkansas duck hunting history. Founded in the 1920s by R. L. Cobb Hartsfield, the club has remained in the same family for over a century and has consistently functioned as a premier duck hunting property. Spanning 743.75 acres, it includes a spacious 4,620-square-foot lodge—perfect for entertaining family, friends, and business associates.

Located in southern Monroe County just south of Indian Bay, the property is bordered by the White River National Wildlife Refuge on the east and west and Sandy Bayou Duck Club on the south. Access is excellent, via Arkansas Highway 1, Bay Town Road, and Hartsfield Lane, which all lead directly to the lodge. Stuttgart is a 45-minute drive away, with Little Rock and Memphis both within 100 miles.

This legendary property is one of Arkansas’s most storied duck hunting clubs and was featured in the book This Love of Hunting by Frank A. Jeffett. It has long served as a haven for wintering ducks, delivering consistent hunting success season after season. Its location near the White River National Wildlife Refuge and surrounding agricultural land offers an unmatched habitat. The diverse bottomland topography includes oxbow lakes, sloughs, cypress and oak timber, and wetlands filled with smartweed, buttonbush, and willow. A large open area is ideal for cultivating duck food crops for sanctuary. Established blinds are accessed by boat, and the property also supports trophy whitetail deer hunting and fishing opportunities.

The direct access to the White River Refuge is a rare advantage. Outdoorsmen can hunt on private land or travel via Big Creek to explore over 100,000 acres of untouched bottomland timber. This unique access to one of the region’s most significant protected habitats adds to the property's appeal as a premier investment in outdoor recreation.

This outstanding recreational property is listed for $9,899,000. Qualified and interested parties should contact Chuck Myers of Myers Cobb Realtors at 901-830-5836 to learn more or schedule a tour.
