Vernal River Road, Lucedale, MS 39452 - Greene County

GREAT HUNTING PROPERTY. Situated 10 miles south of Leakesville, this nice-sized tract is a sportsmans dream. Vernal River Road bisects this listing with 32 acres on the north side of the road and 106 acres on the south side. A good internal road system provides access throughout the site. While much of the property is in the FEMA flood zone, there are some great spots on which to put a house or hunting camp. Power and public water are available along the road frontage. As a timber investment and habitat for area wildlife, this listing has +/-50 acres of young loblolly pine on the south side of the road.

Whitetail deer and turkey are abundant in this part of South Mississippi. A marshy slew in the northwestern corner of the property is the perfect spot for hunting duck and other migratory waterfowl. Mineral Branch flows across the southwestern corner of the tract and Dickerson Branch flows across the northeastern corner.

Adding to this sites appeal is its close proximity to the Chickasawhay River. Located less than one-quarter mile north of GR136, the Chickasawhay River offers excellent boating and fishing opportunities. This ancient river is also known for its outstanding fossil hunting. Ten miles down-river from the property, the Chickasawhay joins the Leaf River to form the scenic Pascagoula River, the only unaffected river in the United States that flows into the Gulf of Mexico.

This listing is less than a one-hour drive from Hattiesburg, Moss Point/Pascagoula, and Mobile, AL.
