Description
Location
The Skipper Mill Creek Tract is located in Butler County, Alabama in the southern portion of the State just ±10 miles east of Greenville near the community of Honoraville. Greenville has a great small-town feel with amenities such as dining, shopping, and entertainment. There is a small general store just a few miles from the property in Honoraville offering the convenience of the necessary essentials of gas and basic groceries. Nestled in South Alabama, this area is known for its prime hunting and abundant wildlife. This property is a great example of this with large white tail deer and great turkey populations.
Land
The mix of land at Skipper Mill Creek is ideal for hunting and recreational use. It is perfectly staged to provide great bedding and nesting habitats for wildlife with areas of young pine plantation, along with large mixed stands of pine and hardwood timber that provide an excellent source of acorn crops each year. This property has been well managed for deer hunting with six established game plots and a trail / road system throughout making it ideal for scouting for deer, hiking, and exploring. The opportunities for this land are endless with areas of 30+ year old planted pines perfect for a small quail course and/or burnt for an even greater wildlife habitat. It has a large field (food plot) that has been planted as a corn field in the past but would make an outstanding dove field if so desired.
Timber
The property has a timber investment upside with its mix of natural pine, pine plantations, and hardwood. The areas of natural pine and hardwood vary from hardwood and pine pulpwood to large pine sawtimber and hardwood logs. The pine plantations were planted in 2014 and will provide a future income stream as it is thinned. There are areas of pine plantation planted in 1985 that have already been thinned and are growing at a high rate thus most likely producing "Chip n Saw" products along with Pine Logs.
