Property Description
Recreational Property,Hunting Land,TimberlandProperty Overview
This 98.868-acre tract on CR 3361 near DeBerry is East Texas hunting land in northeastern Panola County, Texas. Maturing hardwood and pine timber covers the property. Whitetail deer, feral hogs, and small game use the acreage, and three wet-weather creeks cross it. Two county roads provide access. The land is currently used as recreational timberland for hunting and outdoor recreation, with no restrictions. GPS coordinates: 32.3134397597495,-94.1629964683533.
At close to 100 acres, the tract has enough ground to hunt, manage timber, and build a cabin without one use crowding another. Carthage, the Panola County seat, is about 15 miles away. Shreveport, Louisiana is roughly 40 minutes east.
Panola County Hunting Land with Deer and Hog Habitat
Mixed hardwood and pine cover is classic Pineywoods habitat, and on this tract it holds whitetail deer and feral hogs. Small game is also present across the property. Feral hogs can be hunted year-round in Texas, which gives an owner hunting time well outside deer season.
A limited trail system already reaches parts of the tract, so hunters can get into the interior now. Most of the acreage has no set trails or stand locations. A new owner can lay out access routes, shooting lanes, and blind sites around how deer actually move through the property. The three creek drainages are the logical place to begin. Creek bottoms and the edges where hardwood meets pine tend to funnel deer movement, and they give a hunter fixed features to build a stand plan around.
Wet Weather Creeks and Potential Lake Sites
Three wet weather creeks cross the property and run during rainy periods. One drainage may be suitable for a lake of up to 15 acres. A second could support a lake of up to 6 acres. A lake on either site would add fishing and a permanent water source for wildlife, both of which raise the recreational value of a hunting tract.
Timber and Loblolly Pine Soils
The soils are fine and very fine sandy loam, well matched to loblolly pine. Loblolly site index values range from 100 on 46 acres to 93 on 38 acres, with productive yields of up to 157 cubic feet per acre per year. Foresters use site index to measure how well a soil grows a given species. For this Panola County timberland, those figures give a buyer a soil-based starting point for timber planning.
Today’s stands are maturing hardwood and pine, and the land has seen minimal management in recent years. The next owner sets the direction. Thinning, replanting, or letting the timber keep growing are all open, and a timber cruise is a sensible first step. Timber work and habitat work often go together on hunting land, because thinning opens the canopy and encourages the low browse deer feed on.
Cabin Sites, Access, and Utilities
The property has multiple sites suitable for a hunting cabin or country home. Since the acreage is large, a buyer can pick a build site based on road access, tree cover, and distance from the creeks, then leave the rest in timber and hunting habitat.
Two county roads serve the tract; County Road 3361 and County Road 336. One road frontage includes a subdivision lot with power and water, and utilities are believed to be available through that lot. Buyers should verify service availability and connection details. Electric and water line easements are in place. No restrictions apply to the property.
