105 Acre Hunting Paradise-Chickasaw County
Description
This 105+/- acre hunting paradise is situated in Van Vleet, MS, in Chickasaw County.
Van Vleet, MS is situated approximately 27 miles southeast of Tupelo, MS, in the heart of the
Tombigbee National Forest. The TNF is known for producing abundant wildlife, including deer,
turkey, and squirrel. This income-producing tract is perfect for recreation, hunting, a
homeplace site, and timber investment- all in one! This secluded tract is just a short drive off
Hwy 32 down County Road 117, ending at the gated entrance of Camp Tik-A-Witha. This 310
acre Girl Scout Camp borders the property to the West and SW, offering the ultimate wildlife
sanctuary. The North property line is bordered by the beautiful Natchez Trace Parkway with
longtime private landowners adjoining it to the South and East. Access to the property is
provided by multiple points of entry along the South boundary on County Road 117.
This tract contains 51.8 acres of 20 year old pine plantation which received a 3rd row thinning in
October of 2020 and is currently enrolled in CRP, producing a guaranteed annual payment of
$4,349. The current contract expires in September 2022 and has the opportunity to be
extended for another 10 years or pulled from the program if the new owner desires. During the
thinning, careful consideration was taken to strategically place several timber drag lines and
loading zones, providing excellent food plot locations throughout the property. The pine
plantation's layout makes it ideal for utilizing prescribed fire at your discretion. This property's
possibilities are endless, from a quail preserve to one's own multiuse hunting paradise or home
site, making it an ideal location for all.
Another portion of the property consists of 26+/- acres previously clear cut ~20 years ago and
set back out in pine. This part of the tract could provide some income through thinning in the
next few years. Lastly, 16.5+/- acres of mature mixed hardwoods filled with large white oaks,
red oaks, and hickory, and remaining acreage consists of natural regeneration, open roads and
hardwood-lined creeks complete this picturesque property.
The beautiful Dicks Creek and its tributaries traverse throughout the eastern half of the
property providing nearly 1 mile of beautiful creek.
This property is turn key, including gated entrances and an excellent internal road system. An
old home site situated on the tract contains an old barn and well. There are currently several
acres of established Durana clover food plots and 2 well placed shooting houses. A powerline
that traverses across the western portion of the tract for ~460 yds and provides excellent hunting opportunities. The new owner can step in today and begin utilizing this property in
any way they desire.
