Neches Refuge Tract ±70 Acres of Premier East Texas Hunting, Recreation, and Homesite Land Available as a Single ±70 Acre Tract or separated into a ±44 acre Neches Refuge West Tract and a ±26 acre Neches Refuge East Tract. The Neches Refuge Tract represents a rare opportunity to acquire a high-quality recreational and hunting property in one of East Texas's most desirable natural settings. Encompassing approximately 70 acres of diverse forestland, this property offers exceptional wildlife habitat, outstanding access, and direct adjacency to thousands of acres of permanently protected land. Whether purchased as a single contiguous holding or divided into two thoughtfully configured tracts, the Neches Refuge Tract is ideally suited for hunting, outdoor recreation, a secluded homesite, or a long-term legacy investment. Set at high elevation with well-drained soils, the land provides year-round accessibility and multiple attractive building locations. Electricity is available on site, and the property is completely unrestricted, allowing future owners the freedom to use and improve the land according to their goals. From a private hunting retreat to a family getaway or full-time rural residence, this property offers the flexibility and natural features that discerning land buyers seek.Location, Access, and Regional Appeal One of the defining strengths of the Neches Refuge Tract is its combination of seclusion and accessibility. The property fronts U.S. Highway 84, providing excellent accessibility and convenient year-round access. In addition to highway frontage, the property benefits from paved internal and boundary road access, a feature that significantly enhances ease of use, property management, and long-term value. Despite its peaceful, private setting, the property is centrally located relative to several East Texas communities and major metropolitan areas:• 18 miles from Palestine• 19 miles from Jacksonville• 47 miles from Tyler• Approximately 125 miles from Dallas• Approximately 150 miles from Houston This location makes the property equally attractive for weekend recreation or permanent living, offering a manageable drive from major population centers while maintaining a true rural atmosphere.Topography, Soils, and Overall Landscape The Neches Refuge Tract sits at a high elevation relative to surrounding lands, a feature that provides several practical and recreational advantages.

These characteristics are especially valuable for hunters and landowners who want reliable year-round access to stands, trails, and camp or homesite locations. The property's gently rolling terrain enhances both aesthetics and usability. Elevated areas provide ideal locations for homes, cabins, or camps, while lower hardwood corridors and natural drains create scenic diversity and prime wildlife habitat. This combination of elevation change and varied vegetation gives the property a larger, more dynamic feel than many tracts of similar size.Timber Resources and Habitat Diversity From a land stewardship and wildlife perspective, the Neches Refuge Tract offers an excellent mix of timber types and age classes. The property includes:• Mixed hardwood and pine forests along creek channels and drains• Merchantable pine plantation, providing immediate and future timber value• Pre-merchantable pine plantation, offering long-term growth potential and excellent cover Hardwood corridors along natural drains are dominated by species commonly found in East Texas bottomlands, providing mast production, , species diversity, edge effect, and travel corridors for wildlife.
