Description
This 2.97 acre +/- property in Pike County offers a compact recreational tract with an existing hunting cabin and basic improvements already in place, located in El Dara. For buyers looking for a small-acreage setup that can serve as a hunting base camp, weekend retreat, or quiet place to spend time outdoors, this property provides an established starting point with manageable acreage and usable infrastructure. The property includes a 12’x24’ cabin that was built in 1989. The structure has seen several updates over time, including a roof that was sealed in 2015 and an awning/porch was added in 2004, providing covered outdoor space near the cabin for gear, seating, or protection from the weather during the season. All appliances convey with the property. The additional shed to the east of the cabin is used as the shower house and was added to the property in 2015. This includes a small water heater. There is no full plumbing system in place, and grey water currently drains out the front of the buildings. Buyers should complete their own due diligence regarding any future plumbing, septic, or utility improvements they may want to make. The property also includes a small storage shed, which can be useful for tools, hunting gear, lawn equipment, or camp supplies. In the middle of camp, you’ll find an already established game hanging frame. The land itself offers a mix of wooded cover and open areas. This tract is tucked into a timbered setting with established trees, edge habitat, and adjoining open ground nearby. The wooded portion gives the property a private, tucked-away feel, while the open grassy areas around the cabin provide usable space for parking, gathering, maintaining equipment, or setting up for weekend use. The property also includes a small storage shed, which can be useful for tools, hunting gear, lawn equipment, or camp supplies. For hunters, this tract can serve as a base camp or staging location. The timber, nearby field edges, and surrounding habitat create a natural outdoor setting, while the cabin provides a place to organize gear, rest between sits, or stay during hunting season. Although the acreage is limited, the existing improvements help make the property usable without starting from raw land. Buyers interested in hunting use should verify local regulations, access, property boundaries, and any intended use with the appropriate agencies and professionals. The timbered setting provides cover and a natural outdoor feel, while the existing cabin allows a new owner to begin using the property without starting completely from scratch. The cabin and outdoor space also support non-hunting recreational use. The covered porch, shaded yard, storage shed, and surrounding timber create a practical setup for weekend stays, camp-style gatherings, or quiet time outdoors. The tract is small enough to maintain without the upkeep of a large acreage, while still offering a more natural setting than a standard residential lot. This property may be well-suited for someone looking for a small Pike County acreage with a cabin, a place to stay during hunting season, or a simple weekend retreat. The improvements are modest, but they provide utility for recreational use and could be updated or modified by a new owner based on their needs and plans. The acreage size keeps the property approachable, while the cabin and covered area give it more function than raw land alone.
