About This Property

Discover 148+/- acres offering privacy, recreation, and endless possibilities! This diverse property joins Mark Twain National Forest and features Highway A frontage with two entrances and electric available at the highway. Rolling hills, two ridgetops, and areas of level ground provide multiple potential building sites, while an established trail system winds throughout the property and leads down to a secluded cabin and spring-fed creek. The land features an impressive mix of large cedars, mature oaks and hardwoods, massive pine trees, and a beautiful cedar bottom behind the cabin. Tucked away on the property is a furnished 2-bedroom cabin featuring cedar-lined rooms, a wood stove, generator-powered electric, and sleeping space for three full-size beds. A metal building provides additional storage, and a second small remote sleeping cabin sits on top of the mountain, offering another great spot for guests or a hunting camp. Located approximately 5 miles from Council Bluff Lake, a roughly 400-acre lake with beach, fishing, and recreational access. Johnson’s Shut-Ins, Elephant Rocks, and many of the area's outdoor attractions are also within driving distance. Whether you're looking for hunting land, a recreational retreat, a secluded getaway, or acreage with potential building sites, this 148+/- acre property offers a rare combination of highway access, water, mature timber, improvements, privacy, and direct access to public land.

Missouri's high igneous country, where the mountains still hold their timber.

Iron County sits at the rugged heart of the St. Francois Mountains, home to some of the highest, most broken ground in Missouri. Ancient igneous knobs rise out of heavy oak-hickory timber, and the terrain rewards buyers who want seclusion, elevation, and big-woods character. This is classic hardwood deer and turkey country, with pasture and hay ground tucked into the valleys between the ridges. The St. Francis River gathers its headwaters here among glades and rocky shut-ins. Land here leans toward timber, cattle, and recreation rather than row crops, and the mining heritage runs deep. For a hunting camp, a working cattle place, or a rugged recreational tract, Iron County offers scenery and solitude in equal measure.
