921 Damascus Rd, Durant, MS 39063 - Holmes County

535+/- Acres in Holmes bordering I-55 and Holmes County State Park. This place has been the source of many memories for 2 families for over 40 years. Located about 50 miles from the Jackson Metro area it is easy and quick to get to and offers many memory making opportunities for you and your family.

The terrain is rolling hills and creek bottoms with a nice hardwood/pine timber mix that has merchantable timber now. Hardwood is by far the predominant species and is about 30 years old. Plenty old enough to produce acorns for the deer and turkey. The pine covers about 60 acres and is of various ages ranging from 30 to 10 years old. The young pine covers around 40 acres a tornado touched about 10 years ago providing a perfect bedding area and sanctuary for the deer. The families have designed and made about 20 food plots over the years in strategic locations. The road system has evolved over those years and provides very good access to all of the property. Electricity and water is on the property and ready for you to build a cabin. The family has worked hard over the years to manage both the deer herd and turkey flock and Holmes County is known to produce some big deer.

This property borders Holmes County State Park and the park's 50+/- acre lake. The park is a major training facility for the Ms Dept of Wildlife and Fisheries, the presence of law enforcement officers provides a nice security system! The lake has been closed for a couple of years for maintenance which included the addition of fish structures and re-stocking of bass and bream. There is no hunting allowed in the park which provides a great buffer for managing the wildlife. The majority of the west line is I-55 which provides another buffer.

This really is a nice property so gather up the family and take a look!
