When I was making loans for a living in South Mississippi, the most activity and biggest demand that we saw came from small properties that could be accessed fairly easily from either I-55 or Hwy 49. This was mainly due to the buyers that lived in Baton Rogue and New Orleans could leave on a Friday and make it to their destination in a reasonable time. Areas in extreme south Mississippi like Pearl River County and the counties in the southwest like Wilkinson and Pike saw this first, and then as more land buyers came on the market, land further up the State became desirable. Simpson County is well located with easy access from MS Hwy 49 and I 55. The county is rural and land buyers are able to purchase more land that is in close proximity to timber company land which is now being managed in a way that is better for long term sustainability of quality deer and turkey.
Simpson County also has the Strong River, which is a rocky creek that runs through a large part of the county. Easy to canoe or kayak and has multiple access points.
We have listed 4 tracts that all have some uniqueness. They have been owned and managed by one family for over thirty years. Timber is in good condition and hunting is excellent.
