Located on a dead-end road in Southeast Mississippi, two gated entrances allow you into a world of possibilities. While this property feels quite remote, it is only 3.5 miles northeast of downtown Leakesville, MS. The Alabama state line is five miles due east. RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES. There is SO much to do on this listing starting with the western border and working our way back. CHICKASAWHAY RIVER. The majority of the property's western border is 1.65 miles of Chickasawhay River frontage. Invite your friends and family to enjoy the beautiful, huge white sandbars that dot the shoreline. On the other hand, you could simply enjoy the peace and solitude this much waterfront real estate affords. During the summer months, one particular sandbar stretches for nearly 10 acres. Sturdy enough for ATVs, these sandbars offer excellent spots for swimming, sunbathing, relaxing, camping out, or bonfires. Launch your kayak or innertube from the northernmost point and spend a lazy afternoon just floating the river. Set out trotlines or use a pole to fish for catfish, bass, and bream. Spend some time along the river searching for fossils as the Chickasawhay is known for its fossil deposits dating back 35 million years. A tributary of the Pascagoula River, the Chickasawhay River is part of one of the last unspoiled waterways in the United States. TRAIL RIDING. Many miles of well-maintained roads open up lots of possibilities for the interior of the property including fantastic trail riding opportunities. Whether your preference is equestrian, wheels, or even hiking, the natural hardwoods provide ample shade coverage while the easily accessible winding trails provide endless options for exploration. HUNTING. More than 275 acres of GR555 are in a beautiful natural hardwood bottom with large diameter hardwoods. The balance of the timbered acreage is in various ages of longleaf pine.

A power transmission line crosses the property providing open acreage for food plots or shooting lanes. EXCELLENT CAMP SITE. An older camp house was located near the center of the property.
