Recreational And Hunting Land That Borders WMA

This 40-acre tract in Lauderdale County, Alabama, borders the Lauderdale Wildlife Management Area, which encompasses over 20,000 acres of publicly accessible land for hunting and outdoor recreation. This adjacency provides expanded access to wildlife habitat and additional hunting opportunities beyond the tract's boundaries. The land was replanted in longleaf pine several years ago, creating a developing timber stand that contributes to both habitat and future land management potential. The current understory and new growth across the property provide natural bedding cover for deer and turkey, while also sustaining small-game populations. The topography consists of rolling hills with multiple ridges that offer extended views across the landscape. These elevated areas also offer practical locations for establishing hunting setups, such as shooting houses or stands. A one-acre food plot has been established along one of the ridges, providing a supplemental food source to help attract and hold wildlife on the property. An internal road system is already in place, allowing access throughout much of the acreage. This network supports ease of navigation for hunting, land management, or general recreational use. Road frontage includes approximately 230 feet along Smith Road, a dirt road, and has gated access. The property is located a short distance from Pickwick Lake, a well-known destination for fishing and water-based recreation. This proximity allows the tract to serve as a base for combined hunting and fishing activities. The acreage also presents options for temporary or seasonal use, such as placing a camper for weekend stays, subject to local regulations and utility considerations. Overall, the tract offers a mix of newly planted timber, wildlife habitat, access, and location benefits that may suit buyers seeking hunting land, recreational property, or a long-term land investment in Lauderdale County.
