LAND: 86.67 acres of land which is sandy-loam by nature and well suited to pasture, hay, fruit, berries and garden crops of all kinds. At this time this land is ready for livestock grazing but mainly is being used for weekend camping and hunting during hunting season. The land is mostly level, but there are two hills; one on the W side of approximately 5 acres and one on the E side of approximately 8 acres that would make good home-sites which would overlook the creek below and pastures beyond the creek. It would also afford a nice view of Cavanal Mountain. The land is cleared in the middle with game trails to the sides and trees dotted throughout, part of which is more densely wooded for shade and protection. The farm should handle around 25 to 35 cow-calf units reported by owner. It has the capacity to be improved by clearing trees for more permanent pasture land. Most of the land is fenced with barb wire and steel t posts except it needs a cross fence at SE corner.
There is approximately five acres west of the creek with a hill which would also be a good building site. The lines were surveyed when the fencing was installed and all corners are clearly marked.
RV SITES: There is a good road leading to the 4 RV sites. Each site has a level pad on which to park your rv. One site has 50 amp and the other three have 30 amp. There are shade trees around the sites. There is a cook shack near the pads which needs new tarps on the sides. Also there is a 100 gallon water tank which the present owner takes to town and cleans it and fills with water when they camp. They pump the water into the rv reservoir. Everything you need to take the family camping. The kids will love it.
SERVICES: Electric, phone, school bus and mail route. LP gas delivery available. Rural water is at property line on the South bordering the county road.
WATER: Watson Creek is a mountain stream that is reported to have water year round. In wetter seasons the creek is swift flowing. During dryer times in most places you can wade across the creek but it is reported to always have holes of water year around. There is also a deep pond which it is reported to have water year around. There is a small, shallow creek on the East side that feeds into the above mentioned pond in rainy weather. Average rainfall in this section of the country is about 45 to 50 inches per year.

PRICE: $175,000.00. Up to 80% bank financing with approved credit.
COMMENTS: If a new country home is in your future, this would be a very nice place to build your dream home. Good all-weather road access about 15 minutes from the city of Poteau and about 30 minutes to the larger city of Fort Smith, Arkansas.

Several home-sites ranging from a hill overlooking the creek, another hill with a great view of the mountain, to a valley location which would give access to the view with more land around the home. There is a road in place that was installed several years ago by the production company that operates the gas well on the back side of the property. School bus, mail, and phone services to the property now with electric already installed all the way to the back of the property and individually to the four rv sites. There is a good mix of pasture and wooded land. Hunting for deer, turkey, squirrel, rabbit, quail and other game in a wildlife setting.
