I looked at it on Google Earth today. Was not interested without knowing the price but sure wouldn't pay that!

holy shite 7-13 an acre most places in bama, but you pay a lot more for a camp house etc.Try to get them to 30 bucks. Dont let everyone freak you out on hardwood cut. The hunting will actually be better for a few years, but long term that will suck. find out when they are cutting etc. if it is year round they will be dragging out timber in middle of deer season and u will be fricked. Either way that is probably why the previous leasor left the property. Or just no deer.

Definitely a bit steep at $8500/yr for 257 acres with a two bedroom camp. My brother and I would be splitting it so $4250 each isn't terrible. They are cutting the hard woods this summer and will be out before October 1st. When our company had a camp in the marsh we paid $15,000/yr but that was for 3k acres. If they had come back $4500/5000 i probably wouldn't have even questioned it. I know the area 10 miles to the east holds some damn nice deer and you are in the middle of no where which is a plus.
