Blue Mountain 5.7 Acres Adjoining National Forest

Location:  This is a very unique property that is nestled in the heart of the Ouachita National Forest in a beautiful valley setting between the Winding Stair Mountain Range to the South and Blue Mountain to the North.  The property has direct access to the 1.5 million acre Ouachita National Forest, which provides excellent hunting opportunities for whitetail deer, eastern wild turkey, black bear, wild hog and numerous small game species as well as direct access to an impressive network of ATV, hiking and horseback riding trails that are operated and maintained by the US Forest Service.  This property is located 1 mile NW of Post Mountain Lake and less than 10 miles from Cedar Lake, which is where the last two Oklahoma state record largemouth bass were caught.  Nearby towns include Heavener, Talihina, Big Cedar, Broken Bow and Hochatown.  This property is about a 3.5 hour drive from Dallas, Texas.  At the bottom of this listing is a Google Earth image with the property perimeter outlined in red.  GPS Coordinates:  34.803584, -94.755320

Land:  There are roughly 9.1 acres of level to gently sloping land laying in the foothills of Blue Mountain.  This land is located in a very remote and private setting surrounded by miles of timbered land in the Ouachita National Forest.  The terrain is level to gently sloping and the property is completely covered with an impressive stand of mature timber that is native to south eastern Oklahoma including a diverse variety of oaks, eastern red cedar, hickory, elm, dogwood, red bud as well as a scattering of mature saw log size native shortleaf pine.  Additionally, this property has direct access to Horse Trail #8 and hundreds of miles of hiking and horseback riding trails through the Ouachita National Forest.  NOTE:  There is additional acreage adjoining this tract which could be purchased if anyone wants more land.  This is Tract 5 and a map of the adjoining tracts is attached to this advertisement.

Agent’s Comments:  This “One of a Kind” property is an outdoorsman’s paradise and, in my opinion, this property can be classified as true “Investment Grade Recreational Property”.  It is the ideal setting for a relaxing and peaceful weekend getaway from city life or even a full time residence to completely un-plug from society.  This is a very unique recreational property that provides direct access to the 1.5 million acre Ouachita National Forest with hunting, horseback riding, hiking, ATV riding, camping and fishing.  There are several great cabin building locations on this property with a beautiful view of the Winding Stair Mountain Range to the South.  Multiple cabins could be constructed on this property and provide the new owner with a rental income source.
