Description

Timber Investment • Hunting Retreat • Development Potential This impressive 336.5-acre timber tract lies deep in the heart of McCreary County, Kentucky, surrounded by the stunning scenery of the Daniel Boone National Forest. With Mill Creek flowing north to south through the property and Cumberland Falls State Resort Park just minutes away, this land combines valuable timber resources, seclusion, and recreational beauty—a rare opportunity for investors, outdoor enthusiasts, or developers. Timber & Natural Features A healthy stand of mature hardwood and softwood species covers the landscape, including white oak, hemlock, virgin pine, red oak, and maple, among others. Over half of the timber has had many years’ growth with the remainder being harvested in 2015. The property, creates both immediate harvest value and long-term investment potential. Rolling hills, ridges, and wooded hollows provide an ideal environment for deer, turkey, and small game, while clear running Mill Creek, which flows directly from the Cumberland River, adds water access and natural appeal.
