Set along a quiet county road near Cushing, this tract brings together rolling terrain, mature mixed timber, multiple creek channels and a broad natural slough within one manageable recreational property. Elevated ground occurs around much of the perimeter, while the land slopes toward a large central bottom shaped by Jones Creek and two smaller tributary drainages. A recently constructed drive leads from the county road through the timber to the interior, and electricity is already present across portions of the property. The combination of high ground, flowing water, mature hardwoods and wetland habitat creates a varied East Texas landscape with options for recreation, wildlife management and a future cabin or campsite, subject to a buyer’s evaluation.

Land Characteristics

Elevation is estimated to range from approximately 330 feet to 420 feet above sea level. The highest ground is concentrated in the southwestern portion, along much of the eastern boundary and near the northwestern corner. From these elevated areas, the hillsides descend toward the creek bottom and natural slough near the center of the property. This arrangement creates noticeable relief, changing views and a sense of separation between the upland areas and lower water-influenced habitat.

Large, scattered trees occupy the slopes surrounding the bottom, with a relatively open understory in several areas. The existing vegetation has a natural appearance, but selective clearing and continued land management could further open views beneath the canopy and create a more manicured, park-like setting in chosen locations. Mature mixed hardwoods are especially prominent along the creek corridor, where the tree canopy provides shade and frames the waterway.

Creeks, Slough and Habitat

Jones Creek is the principal water feature. It enters near the center of the northern boundary, travels generally southwesterly and exits near the center of the western boundary. In the northern portion of the tract, the channel is open and visibly flowing beneath towering mature hardwoods. Two smaller creeks or natural drainages converge near the southwestern corner and then continue toward the center of the property, where they feed into Jones Creek.

A natural slough estimated to encompass approximately 5 to 10 acres occupies the broad central bottom. Several acres currently hold standing water, creating wetland habitat and waterfowl potential while adding another layer of cover and water within the property. Water levels and the extent of inundation can vary with rainfall and seasonal conditions. Together, the creek, smaller drainages, slough, timbered slopes and open understory form a diverse habitat pattern for wildlife moving through and using the tract.

Access and Interior Improvements

The entrance is positioned on the southern side of CR 950, approximately one-half mile east of FM 2783. A newly constructed driveway enters near the northeastern corner and winds through rolling, mature mixed timber into the heart of the property. This improvement provides a defined route from the county road to an older home site and gives practical access to the interior for recreation, maintenance and future planning.

An older structure remains at the former homesite. It is in poor condition and is not represented as contributing value to the property. Its location does, however, show how the site was historically positioned in relation to the surrounding timber, terrain and interior views.

Elevated areas in the northern and eastern portions may provide several locations worth evaluating for a cabin, campsite or other improvements. Any proposed construction, septic system, driveway extension or site preparation should be independently evaluated based on soils, drainage, floodplain, access and applicable requirements.

Utilities

Electricity runs through the northern portion of the property and extends nearly halfway into the eastern portion. Caro Water Supply Corporation generally serves the surrounding area, but water service and meter availability to this tract have not been confirmed. A prospective buyer should investigate utility capacity, connection requirements and the feasibility of a private water well if public water is not available.

Recreation and Land Management

The property’s combination of rolling uplands, shaded creek corridors, standing water, mature timber and interior access support a range of recreational, and land-management uses. The natural slough offers waterfowl habitat, while the connected creek system and surrounding timber provide water, cover and travel corridors for other wildlife. The open character beneath portions of the mature canopy could also support additional trails, viewing areas or selective habitat improvements.

With high ground occurring in several different parts of the tract, a buyer can compare multiple settings rather than being limited to one elevated location. The new interior drive creates an immediate starting point for exploring those areas and planning future improvements while retaining the natural character of the creek bottom and slough.

Surface Use

Two existing well sites are present. An older-appearing site lies in the eastern portion and is accessed by an easement entering from neighboring property to the east. A more active-appearing site is located in the far southeastern corner and is reached by a lease road entering through neighboring property from the southwest. Based on the current description, the well-site areas and associated access have relatively limited footprints within the tract. Buyers should independently confirm the wells’ status, operators, easements, access rights and applicable surface-use terms.

The property is currently under an agricultural exemption. All acreage, water features, elevations, utility information, access, improvements and surface-use matters should be confirmed by the buyer or buyer’s agent.
