Discover the Davy Crockett Outpost!
A rare opportunity to own 37.3 secluded acres completely surrounded by the Davy Crockett National Forest in Eastern Houston County. Accessed by a well-traveled gated easement through the national forest, the property is easy to reach in both wet and dry conditions while retaining the privacy and peaceful setting buyers seek. A road leads from the entrance to the heart of the property, where a large Earthship-style home awaits. The structure needs updates but offers outstanding potential as an off-grid cabin, hunting camp, weekend retreat, or nature-focused getaway. Electricity previously served the property but has been removed. There is no public water service; the home is supplied by a substantial water-catchment system. Mature pine, oak, sweetgum, and elm create a beautiful canopy across the land and provide excellent habitat for abundant wildlife. Whitetail deer and other game animals are frequently found on the property, making it an inviting setting for hunting, wildlife observation, or simply enjoying the quiet of the East Texas woods. Natural features include several springs, a wet-weather creek, and a pond—adding to the character and recreational appeal of this well-rounded tract. Located only a few miles from Kennard, with Crockett and Lufkin within convenient reach for supplies and amenities, this property delivers a hard-to-find balance of seclusion and accessibility.
Schedule your showing today and experience this distinctive private outpost surrounded by the beauty and adventure of Davy Crockett National Forest.
