This Rusk County timberland property is 13 miles southeast of Henderson, 10 miles north of Mt. Enterprise, and 30 miles north of Nacogdoches. Located in the rolling sandy highlands between the Minden and Brachfield communities, this woodland is a pleasing mix of planted loblolly pine and native shortleaf pine, with beautiful streamside hardwood stands. This property offers great recreational aspects as well as timber production, with an attractive appearance to the mixed pine and hardwood forest. This is not your typical pine plantation property; this land has a very diverse forested habitat and rolling terrain features.
The approximately 65 acres of loblolly plantation is 15 years old, so a first-thinning harvest could occur anytime in the next five years, depending on the owner's management goals. It is intermixed with native shortleaf pine, some of which has attained small-sawlog size. The native woods include white oak, cherrybark red oak, water oak, hickory, blackgum, sweetgum, shortleaf pine and loblolly pine. The streamside corridors are really nice with large hardwoods along the sandy-bottom streams, one of which has petrified wood in the stream channel. This property is an outstanding hunting property, with good internal access along pipeline right-of-ways on the south and west sides.
