The property intersects two different loops of Bayou Des Arc as it meanders toward its confluence with the White River, some three miles downstream. This stretch of the bayou is locally known to have some of the best fishing on the bayou for crappie, bass, catfish, and bream. That is evidenced by the numerous fishing camps located downstream, on the bayou between this property, and the river. An added bonus is that the new landowner will have year-round contracted access to a private boat ramp adjacent to the property, saving several miles of boat travel to and from the property.

Diversity is what make this property so special. It encompasses several different habitats for deer, ducks, and small game. The upland portion has several beautiful white oak ridges with mature timber where you can see long distances in the park-like timber a deer hunters dream. There is also a tall bluff on the bayou with a gorgeous view of the bayou channel and its huge cypress trees. A sizeable portion of the property lies within the floodplain of the bayou where three (3) duck holes have been developed and are practically ready to hunt. Two of the duck holes have permanent blinds in place one a sizeable floating blind and the other a sled blind. The third duck hole is easily accessible through wading and setting up to whichever way the wind may blow. On most years, the bayou will back up into these holes creating a beautiful setting to harvest mallards, wood ducks, teal, gadwalls, and other ducks that traverse the channel. There are also a couple of sites where the channel itself can be utilized with a boat blind. Potential is unlimited.

Located nearby is several public lands that offer great additional hunting and fishing opportunities. The White River is a mere seven (7) minute boat ride down Bayou Des Arc from the property and offers access to thousands of acres of National Wildlife Refuge lands and Arkansas Game & Fish lands. Additionally, Bayou Des Arc WMA is a five (5) minute boat ride down the bayou and offers roughly 500+ acres of green timber overflow waterfowl hunting, which is primarily only accessible from Bayou Des Arc. Next, Lake Des Arc is a short three (3) mile drive located just north of Bayou Des Arc on Highway 11 and has long been known as a jewel of the AFGCs public lakes. Just on up Highway 11, you will find the Steve N. Wilson Raft Creek WMA home to some of the states premier waterfowl hunting.

And just above that is the Hurricane Creek WMA and Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge. Below the history-rich town of Des Arc lies Wattensaw Wildlife Management Area where you can hunt deer, turkey and small game.

To top it all off, there are several great sites to build a cabin or lodge. Power is available adjacent to several different sites and on multiple boundaries. If a new owner was to build, water is also already accessible via the North Prairie County Water Systems. This region of Arkansas really is a true sportsmans paradise and Bayou Des Arc Sporting Retreat sits right in the middle of it all!
