About This Property

Discover this exceptional 144± acre recreational and hunting property in St. Clair County, Missouri. Predominantly covered in mature hardwood timber, the property features a healthy mix of white oak, red oak, and hickory trees. Several secluded openings are already in place, offering ideal locations for food plots and wildlife management. A well-established network of two-track trails provides excellent access throughout the property, making it easy to navigate in a variety of hunting conditions and wind directions. The landscape offers numerous ridge tops, bedding areas, and natural pinch points that create outstanding opportunities for deer hunting. Adding to its appeal, the property borders large tracts of Corps of Engineers land that can only be accessed through this property or by boat, effectively expanding the amount of acreage available for recreation and hunting. One of the trails leads directly to a quiet cove on Truman Lake, providing convenient access to fishing and other outdoor activities. Portions of the timber may also offer future harvest potential, creating an opportunity for additional income through responsible timber management. The property includes a well-maintained trailer that would make an excellent hunting cabin, weekend retreat, or base camp for outdoor adventures. The trailer is equipped with both a water well, lagoon, and electricity, providing the comforts needed for extended stays. A small storage shed is also included, offering space for a lawn mower, ATV, hunting equipment, tree stands, or blinds. Whether you're looking for a turnkey hunting property or a peaceful getaway, the existing improvements add immediate functionality and value. Located along Truman Lake, this property offers easy access to several nearby boat ramps, making it convenient for boating, fishing, and water recreation. The property is approximately 10 miles from Osceola and 25 from Clinton.

Rugged cover and Truman Lake at the door.

St. Clair County is where West-Central farm country meets the wilder edge of the Ozark border, and Truman Lake reaches deep into its heart. For the land and recreational buyer, this is prime hunting and lake territory — more timber, more broken ground, and more cover than the open prairie counties to the west. Wooded ridges, brushy draws, and creek corridors carry excellent whitetail and turkey, while the reservoir's arms and coves bring crappie, bass, and waterfowl within reach. Pasture and hay ground still run through the uplands for those wanting cattle. St. Clair rewards the buyer chasing a genuine recreational tract — rugged, timbered hunting ground with big public water close at hand.
