Description

Located just minutes from Houston, Mississippi, this 102+/- acre tract in Chickasaw County offers a combination of mature timber, diverse wildlife habitat, water features, and excellent accessibility. Situated within the well-known Houlka Creek corridor, this property provides outstanding recreational opportunities along with the benefits of merchantable timber and future land management potential.

Supplements: Approximately 60+/- acres of the property consist of a mature merchantable pine plantation, providing immediate timber value while contributing to wildlife cover and habitat diversity. The balance of the acreage includes mature hardwoods, creek-bottom habitat, natural openings, and water features that create a highly attractive environment for deer, turkey, ducks, and other wildlife. A well-established interior road network allows convenient access throughout much of the property. Multiple access points provide flexibility for hunting, timber management, and general property use. The property is further enhanced by a gated entrance, offering controlled access and privacy. One of the standout features is Houlka Creek, which runs adjacent to the property boundary. The Houlka Creek bottom has long been recognized throughout the region for producing quality deer habitat and providing excellent waterfowl opportunities. The combination of creek-bottom hardwoods, natural travel corridors, and nearby agricultural influences creates an ideal environment for wildlife. An oxbow slough located on the property provides additional recreational opportunities, including fishing and seasonal waterfowl hunting. Natural duck holes throughout the tract further enhance its appeal for waterfowl enthusiasts. The diverse habitat types create year-round recreational opportunities and support a healthy wildlife population. Several large mowed areas are already in place and are well-suited for food plot development. These openings can be easily integrated into a wildlife management program while complementing the surrounding timber and hardwood habitat. Multiple mature hardwood stands provide natural mast production and valuable food sources that attract and hold wildlife throughout the year. The property's combination of pine timber, mature hardwoods, creek frontage, slough habitat, and established access creates a versatile recreational tract that can be enjoyed immediately while offering long-term management opportunities.
