Welcome to the Copiah 222 located just two miles southwest of Georgetown in Copiah County, Mississippi. Three things stand out here: growing timber investment, plentiful road frontage, and tons of turkey sign. The timber make-up includes approximately 180 acres of recently thinned pines that looks to have been planted somewhere around 2006/2007 with the remainder being in hardwood timber. The recent pine thinning should have the timber investment on its way, all while making the hunting that much better. The hardwoods run east and west, along a small clearwater creek that eventually drains into the Pearl River less than one mile east of the property. This creates a perfect travel corridor and water source that should keep the deer and turkey using the place. The internal road system is excellent, making its way to most everywhere on the property. The 2,900+ frontage feet along Rails Road and the 3,600+ frontage feet along Knight Road allow for multiple options – buy the land and hold it for future division or buy a smaller, more affordable tract now. The sellers are open to division. The ample road frontage also allows for multiple entrances, so you don’t blow out your entire property on each hunt.
Additionally, the Copiah 222 offers a few nice cabin/house sites to choose from if you’re looking for a place to build. The utility providers in this area include Southern Pine EPA and Copiah Water Association.
Finally, the TURKEY hunting should be phenomenal here. Upon initial inspections, there were tracks EVERYWHERE!!! The property could also be set up on a burn rotation to maximize habitat and turkey use. The current owners have only turkey hunted the property a couple of times with success each time. Trail cameras are out, catching turkey on the move almost daily.
The location is perfect, being just 13± miles east of Interstate 55 and about an hour south of the Jackson Metro Area.
