Root Rock Hunting & Timber

Situated in central Crawford County in the heart of the Boston Mountains, this property is located just north of Mulberry and east of Mountainburg—less than one hour from both Fayetteville and Fort Smith. The surrounding area is known for its natural beauty, recreational access, and rural character. With convenient proximity to I-40 and I-49, the location offers a rare balance of seclusion and accessibility, making it ideal for buyers seeking investment, recreation, or a private retreat within reach of Northwest Arkansas’s growing population centers.Root Rock is 340± acres about 40 miles from Fayetteville, AR - close enough to hunt after work, and big enough to hold deer, turkey, and black bear on your own ground. Timber: A July 2025 timber cruise confirmed mature, merchantable planted pine ready for harvest, along with natural hardwood stands that add long-term value. The tract has been under sound forestry management for years. Water: Rock Creek runs along the northern boundary, with clear pools and rock shelves. Multiple streams, three stocked ponds, and spring-fed wells mean there's water on this tract year-round. Hunting: Open pastures, established food plots, hardwood ridges, and pine cover keep food, cover, and water close together, supporting strong populations of whitetail deer, turkey, and black bear. Varied topography and multiple access points let you hunt different stands depending on the wind. Access: A well-maintained internal road system reaches the whole property. It works for hunting access now and is already in place for future timber harvests, which lowers costs for the next owner. Pasture: Roughly 40 acres of open grass, suitable for grazing cattle or expanding food plots. Hunt Camp: Two dwellings give you a base camp from day one - a 1,408 sq ft home built in 1959 that has been used as a rental, and a studio-style cabin with a sleeping loft back in the woods. Sellers will retain 50% of the mineral rights.
