Location: This “One of a Kind” property is nestled in the heart of the
Ouachita National Forest in a beautiful valley setting between Lenox Ridge and the
Winding Stair Mountain Range to the North and the majestic Kiamichi Mountain
Range to the South. The property is less
than 300 feet from Billy Creek, which is a near year round source of crystal
clear water that provides recreational opportunities for fishing and kayaking. This
property is less than 1 mile from the 1.8 million acre Ouachita National
Forest, which provides direct access to hunting opportunities for whitetail
deer, eastern wild turkey, black bear, wild hog and other small game as well as
direct access to an impressive network of ATV, hiking and horseback riding
trails that are operated and maintained by the US Forest Service. The property is located east of the small
community or Muse, OK. Nearby towns
include Broken Bow, Hochatown, Talihina and Poteau, which is the county
seat. Broken Bow Lake, which offers some
of the best fishing in Oklahoma, is only a short 30 minute drive away to the
South. Sardis Lake, Cedar Lake and
Wister Lake are only minutes away as well.
The Talimena Scenic Drive is five miles North of the Cabin. The property is a 1.5 hour drive from Fort
Smith, Arkansas and about 3.5 hours from Dallas, Texas.
Property Address:
26660 Hidden Pines Lane; Muse, Oklahoma 74949.
Services to Property: Electricity,
rural water, aerobic septic system and propane storage tank.
Land: The cabin sits on 1.13
acre (m/l) of surveyed land that is level to gently sloping and completely
covered with a nice stand of mature timber that is native to south-eastern
Oklahoma inducing a diverse variety of oaks, sweet gum, hickory, eastern red
cedar and native shortleaf pine. A
tributary of Billy Creek flows along the North property line with the cabin
overlooking the creek.
Access: This property has legal and all-weather
access by means of a paved county-maintained road (Billy Creek Road). There is a private drive (Hidden Pines Lane)
extending off Billy Creek Road with entry gate that provides access to the
cabin.
Potential Income Producing Property: The cabin could easily be rented out on a
part time basis to provide an additional income stream when not in use by the
owners. This cabin is conveniently
located adjacent to the Billy Creek Recreational Area and an impressive network
of ATV, hiking and horseback riding trails throughout the 1.8 million acre
Ouachita National Forest. The cabin
provides direct access to these riding trails.
Cabin: The
cabin was built in 2023 and includes roughly 960 square feet of heated and
cooled living space. The cabin has 1
bedroom, 1 bathroom, large kitchen/living room and covered porches. The
exterior of the cabin was designed with a virtually maintenance free exterior
with vinyl board and batten siding, rock wainscoting, covered porches,
composite shingle roof and vinyl siding in the soffit areas. Additionally, the cabin was designed to be
very energy efficient to minimize heating and cooling costs with spray foam
insulation, vinyl double pain windows with Low-E glass and Argon gas and on
demand tank less hot water heater. The
interior of the cabin was finished out with rustic tongue and groove white pine
with vaulted ceilings, water proof vinyl plank flooring, knotty pine interior
doors and custom made cabinetry. There
are floor to ceiling windows in the living room that provide a great view of
the creek. The level of craftsmanship, attention to detail and quality trim
work throughout is very impressive.
Covered
Back Porch: There
are nice 10 ft x 32 ft covered back porch that overlooks a tributary of Billy
Creek. There is a natural gas outdoor fireplace.
Agent’s Comments: This is a beautiful custom built
cabin with a high level of craftsmanship, attention to detail and quality trim
work throughout. The location provides
an ideal setting for a relaxing and peaceful weekend getaway from city life or
even a full time residence. No traffic,
no hurrying, just simple life away from the hectic city. This is a very unique property that provides
access to both Billy Creek and the Ouachita National Forest Recreational
Area. This cabin offers “Off the Porch”
access to the 4-wheeler, side by side, hiking and horseback riding trails in
the National Forest. In my opinion, this
property can be classified as true “Investment Grade Recreational
Property”. This cabin has good income
producing potential with the ability for the new owner to cover monthly
payments while still booking times to enjoy the property for themselves.
