Pontoon Hunting, Fishing & Timber

Investment Overview

Pontoon is a rare opportunity to own 186+ acres along the Petit Jean River in Central Arkansas, offering more than three-quarters of a mile of river frontage and a complete mix of hunting and timber resources. The property consists of two tracts sold together: the 168 ± acre main tract with road access, 150 acres of pine plantation, and over a half mile of Petit Jean River frontage, and the 18.75 ± acre “Pontoon East,” a bottomland timber tract along the Petit Jean River accessible by boat that delivers some of the finest duck hunting you can find anywhere in the state. The blend of bottomland hardwoods, productive pine stands, and nutrient-rich river soils creates ideal conditions for Boone & Crockett caliber whitetail, abundant turkey, and thriving waterfowl populations. Its location, surrounded by productive rice and soybean farms on the other side of the river, further enhances the draw for migrating ducks. With 150 acres of pine planted in 2004, the property carries significant near-term timber income potential while also serving as high-quality wildlife habitat. Interior roads and trails allow access throughout the main tract, and the Petit Jean River connects both parcels into a single, versatile property that balances investment value with world-class recreational use. Pontoon stands as a premier central Arkansas hunting property - an elite tract offering a rare combination of big deer, strong turkey numbers, exceptional duck hunting, and long-term timber value in a single land holding.
