Property Description

Discover the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience on this stunning 50 +/- acre timber tract in Cape Girardeau County. For the hunter or outdoorsman who understands that the best land is also the best investment, this tract is a rare find. Tucked into the hills of Oriole, Missouri, this property sits just over the ridge from the Mississippi River and Trail of Tears State Park, placing you in one of the most productive wildlife corridors in the region. Whether you're chasing trophy longbeards in the spring or waiting on a heavy-racked buck in November, this ground is a proven producer.

This isn't just a patch of woods; it’s a high-quality stand of tall timber. From a sportsman’s perspective, these hardwoods provide a massive mast crop to keep game on the property year-round. From an investor’s perspective, the standing timber represents significant "banked" value that continues to grow alongside the land’s natural appreciation. Whether you're looking for a weekend escape or a permanent residence, you are only 20–25 minutes from the heart of Cape Girardeau. This land is a sportsman’s stronghold, boasting heavy timber cover and wet-weather creeks that serve as a natural travel corridor for trophy whitetail deer and wild turkey. Enjoy interior trails already in place to allow for more time in the stand. Beyond your own borders, you’ll enjoy nearby access to the extensive hiking and equestrian trails, fishing, and breathtaking river overlooks that make this region a destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Practicality meets privacy with a dedicated 18’ wide easement and an established gravel driveway leading to a cleared landing, perfectly positioned for a hunting camp, off-grid cabin, or a permanent estate. With multiple potential build sites and nearby utility access, this land is ready to be transformed into a permanent private sanctuary.
