Property Description
''Sportsman's Paradise on the Chunky River''
Welcome to your once-in-a-lifetime hunting and fishing retreat — a 987± acre trophy property on the beautiful Chunky River in Lauderdale County, MS. This is true outdoorsman country, and it's been strategically developed to deliver the ultimate wildlife experience.
In 2013, the current landowner partnered with renowned wildlife biologist Dr. Grant Woods to create a custom land and wildlife management plan. The goal? Build a habitat where deer, turkey, and ducks thrive — and where mature bucks grow big racks, not just big bodies.
And it worked.
With prescribed burning, timber management, predator control, food plot rotation, and strict harvest rules, this land now consistently produces 140''+ whitetail bucks, thriving turkey populations, and explosive spring gobbles. You'll also enjoy bass fishing in two stocked lakes, and waterfowl action along the 2.5 miles of Chunky River frontage.
Key Features:
30+ miles of interior roads (ATV or truck ready)
50 acres of open pasture, perfect for grazing or future development
228 acres of river-bottom hardwoods
140 acres of pine pole timber
Natural spring
10 gated entrances
Camp house sleeps 6, with full kitchen, laundry & WiFi
3,000+ sq ft covered barn, additional covered shop and parking
Large equipment storage area
Multiple food plots with established stands
Wildlife Galore:
Whitetail deer with trophy genetics
Eastern wild turkey
Bass, bream, and catfish
Ducks in the bottoms
Occasional sightings of bobcat, coyote, and other game
This isn't just a piece of land — it's a legacy property for generations of hunting, fishing, and storytelling. Whether you're looking to host a hunting camp, build a family retreat, or invest in a recreational timber tract, this property checks every box for the serious outdoorsman.
📍 East Mississippi — easy drive from Meridian or Jackson.
