About This Property

Tucked deep within the scenic Gasconade River Valley, this extraordinary 223.96 surveyed acre tract along Mill Creek is the kind of legacy property serious outdoorsmen spend a lifetime searching for. A rare blend of raw beauty, elite hunting, and thoughtful management, this is a true sanctuary where trophy whitetails and longbeards thrive. The landscape is nothing short of exceptional—rolling mature timber ridges, secluded flats, and strategically placed clearings create a dynamic and highly huntable property. Mill Creek meanders through the heart of the land, fed by multiple spring-fed tributaries that provide year-round water and enhance the already rich wildlife habitat. Approximately 14 acres of open ground, established food plots, and lush creek bottoms filled with native grasses and bedding cover offer the perfect balance to hold and grow mature deer. This property has been intensively managed for years with a focus on producing top-end whitetails—and it shows. Multiple bucks exceeding the 150” mark have been harvested here, including an incredible giant pushing into the 180s. Now, the opportunity is yours to carry on that legacy. A well-developed trail system provides seamless access throughout the property, with entry points from both the north and southwest—allowing you to hunt effectively in nearly any wind condition. Sign is abundant, and two box blinds are perfectly positioned overlooking established food plots, offering comfort, concealment, and deadly effectiveness. Improvements make this property turnkey and ready to enjoy immediately. A spacious 3 bed, 2 bath fully furnished manufactured home on a private well serves as the perfect hunting lodge or weekend retreat. Additional structures include a 30x22 metal building and a 16x24 workshop—ideal for storing gear, tools, and equipment. Located less than 10 minutes from multiple access points on the Gasconade River, you’ll have quick access to float, fish, and explore some of the best smallmouth bass water in the Midwest. Properties of this caliber are few and far between—offering premier hunting, outstanding habitat, quality improvements, and unmatched recreational appeal, from having your own cave to the crystal-clear water flowing through your own property year-round. This is more than just LAND—it’s an investment in a lifestyle. Schedule your private showing today.

Big Piney bottoms and timbered ridges in the heart of the Ozarks

Pulaski County sits squarely in the Missouri Ozarks, where the Gasconade and Big Piney rivers carve through forested hills and open fertile bottomland. Buyers here find a classic mix of rolling oak-hickory timber, shortleaf pine ridges, and creek-bottom pasture that runs cattle and puts up hay. The thin, rocky uplands lend themselves to grazing and recreational holdings rather than heavy row crop. Whitetail deer and turkey work the hardwood draws, and river frontage adds fishing and floating value. With Fort Leonard Wood anchoring the local economy and Mark Twain National Forest close at hand, this is dependable country for a working cattle place, a hunting retreat, or a recreational tract with water and cover in good measure.
