Recreational Land for Sale in Columbia, Mississippi

WELCOME TO THE JEFFERSON DAVIS 160-EVERYTHING A HUNTER OR LAND INVESTOR COULD ASK FOR! This 160± acre sportsman's paradise is located just outside of Bassfield, roughly 45 minutes northwest of Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Loaded with wildlife and featuring multiple stages of timber maturity, the Jefferson Davis County property strikes an ideal balance between recreation and investment potential. The land itself tells a story. A well-managed pine plantation has already been thinned and is primed for a prescribed burn to further enhance forest health and wildlife habitat. Mixed throughout are mature hardwood draws, home to impressive white and red oaks that provide a dependable acorn crop-an essential food source for both deer and turkey. A clear, year-round creek winds through the property, offering a reliable water source while adding natural beauty to the landscape. Along the creek, hardwood funnels concentrate wildlife movement, with abundant deer trails, turkey scratching, tracks, and dust bowls visible throughout. In two separate locations, a wide gas line crosses corners of the property, creating ideal opportunities for large food plots and tower blind placement. A strategic 10± acre clear-cut provides prime bedding cover for deer and sits perfectly positioned across the creek from the gas line. Between them lies a beautiful hardwood draw that naturally funnels wildlife movement from bedding to feeding areas. Thanks to this thoughtful layout of terrain and habitat, the tract hunts much larger than its acreage suggests. Recent trail camera photos confirm the presence of several mature, healthy bucks actively using the property. The Jefferson Davis 160 also supports a strong turkey population. Large flocks are frequently seen, and gobblers are often heard sounding off along the ridges and bottoms. Implementation of a prescribed burn plan will further enhance nesting and brood habitat, increasing the property's appeal to wild turkey. From an investment standpoint, the merchantable pine timber provides tangible financial value. A well-maintained internal road and trail system allows easy access across the entire tract for hunting, management, or recreation. Power is nearby, and with county road frontage, the property is well suited for a future cabin or hunting camp. This is more than just a hunting tract-it's a rare combination of timber value, diverse habitat, and high-quality recreational opportunity. Whether you're a dedicated outdoorsman, a land investor, or someone seeking a private retreat in the woods, the Jefferson Davis 160 is ready to deliver.
