The Little River Bottom with Island on 50 acres
This is a really unique Little River property. The river frontage is absolutely beautiful. We call it the river bottom when you are dealing with a major river and the Little River is a major river in this area. One always has to be aware of the 100-year floodplain, thankfully only approximately 20 acres along the Little River is in the 100-year flood plain so you don't have to worry about the whole thing flooding, as on many riverfront properties! The property is approximately 3/4 nicely wooded to 1/4 clear meadow pasture. I mentioned that this is a really unique property. One thing that is really cool and unique is that we have a nice little island that is created by Little River on the west and the Little River overflow channel on the east side. This creates a little island that is about 15 acres or so in size. It is totally surrounded as mentioned above by the river and overflow channel. A really awesome forest is along their banks. The wildlife are completely protected on all sides! It is a regular little game refuge. The owners have a hunting blind and feeder set up on this Hooper Island. It it's one of the best hunting preserves in the country and there is only one trail into it, a crossing on the overflow channel. Talk about unique! The whitetail deer are abundant. You'll also find wild turkey, wild hogs, black bear, and every other furry Little critter that you can imagine. Pushmataha County has a black bear season too. The owner has planted 10 paper shell pecan trees on Hooper Island to add to the vegetation diversity. The soil is very fertile and deep so a food plot for your game will do very well. The remainder of the property has a nice meadow and woods. The owner bales hay off the meadow. A fantastic hunting blind/tower has been built in the woods to facilitate your hunting pleasure. This preserve is very secluded and back off the main road on a 130-yard long access easement trail to the southeast corner of the property. No one can ever lock you off your own property! You have legal access! Don't miss this one! Call the listing agent for your private tour. You will be glad that you did!
