Bear Creek Hunting And Recreation Tract Near Northport
County Road 38 Northport, AL 35475
Description
This 223± acre property off County Road 38 near Northport, Alabama, offers an excellent opportunity for those seeking a large, private hunting and recreation tract with year-round water at a low price. Located about one mile off the county road via an established but non-deeded access road, the land is remote and quiet while still being within an easy drive of Northport and Tuscaloosa. The western boundary is defined by Bear Creek, with approximately 0.85 miles of frontage along this large, year-round-flowing creek. Bear Creek is highlighted by its clear water, rock ledges, and scenic stretches of hardwood forest. Several mountain streams feed into the creek throughout the property, creating a network of flowing water that supports wildlife and provides endless opportunities for exploration. The creek corridors feature mature hardwood timber, including large red and white oaks that provide hard mast for deer, turkeys, and other wildlife. Rock bluffs rise above portions of the creek, and the majority of the property features very steep topography, adding character and a picturesque landscape rarely found in this part of Alabama. The property also includes roughly 0.7 miles of Little Bear Creek, further enhancing the water resources across the tract. Access throughout the land is excellent thanks to a recently regraded gravel road system with more than 1.7 miles of interior roads and trails, which lead to three gas wells that are currently not leased or in operation. Three established food plots, each approximately half an acre, are already in place and ready for planting. A stand of plantation loblolly pine estimated to be more than 25 years old grows along the western portion of the property, while the remainder of the tract consists largely of natural hardwood forest and creek-bottom habitat. Deer, turkeys, and wild pigs are regularly present on the property, making this tract well-suited for hunting. Electricity and water are not available, but the property would be an excellent setting for an off-grid cabin tucked deep in the woods. The owners say they will miss the quiet afternoons spent walking the creek banks and listening to the water move over the rocks. Whether you are interested in hunting, exploring Bear Creek, or simply enjoying time outdoors, this property offers privacy and natural beauty in a unique setting.
