McDonald County
Rugged timbered hills and float streams in Missouri's far corner
The Land in McDonald County
McDonald County sits in Missouri's southwestern corner, where the plateau breaks into rugged, timbered hills cut by clear, gravel-bottomed rivers. This is scenic Ozark border country, more wooded and broken than the open plateau to the north, prized for its float streams, hardwood ridges, and secluded recreational ground. Poultry and cattle operations work the more open valleys, but the county's character leans toward timber, water, and getaway acreage. Deer and turkey move well through the hollows, and the clear rivers draw those seeking floating and fishing along with their hunting. For the buyer wanting rugged, wooded land with genuine stream frontage and Ozark seclusion, McDonald County offers a distinctive corner of the region.
