Located only a short drive west of the quiet town of Jackson, there is a great chance to have your own private, mountain-forested property. The entire watershed is yours! This beautiful valley is tucked away just off KY 397, just north of a place called Curt. This property is truly a seemingly untouched, majestic valley of hardwood forest from the rolling creek in the valley to the high, peaking ridge tops with amazing rock features. Once inside the gate, it provides that quiet privacy that everyone needs so desperately these days to escape. This tract takes in vast hillsides, natural benches, and cresting secondary points descending into the main valley. The property comprises a natural mix of mid-sized oak/hickory hardwoods along the upper slopes and ridge tops, with soft mast red maple, yellow poplar, and American beech along the lower elevations and valleys. Lush growth throughout the valley springs from the creek environment and provides excellent cover, habitat, and browse for all sorts of wildlife. The textured topography and vast space provide a multitude of ideal cabin sites with beautiful views and privacy, especially in the mid to upper elevations. A good network of roads throughout, with a bit of work, can make moving throughout the property a breeze on ATVs and UTVs. In fact, there is a good UTV road leading up the valley into the mid/upper elevations and around most of the southern part of the property, and to what has been used as a great camping site and fire pit. There is utility access along the east edge of the property at KY 3797. This property is ideally suited for a weekend getaway in the mountains to hunt big mountain bucks or turkey. You may even glimpse a black bear if you are lucky. Perhaps you want to hike, ride ATVs or horses, camp, or explore the history embedded in these ancient Appalachian ridges. Make this property your retreat to experience what life has to offer—looking for even more adventure? Head southwest to nearby Buckhorn Lake or northwest to the Red River Gorge. Both offer almost limitless opportunities in the great outdoors. If these are the kind of adventurous experiences and relaxation you’ve been missing, call me to see if this beautiful property is right for you.
