Nearly 56 wooded acres in the private, gated Mustang Creek community. Two parcels: 5 acres for a future cabin and 50+ acres for hunting. Sulphur River access. Whitetail deer, turkey, dove, hog, and duck hunting in Red River County.
View ListingNortheast Texas supports healthy deer herds across Lamar, Fannin, and surrounding counties. Properties with mixed terrain of open pasture, brush, and hardwood creek bottoms offer excellent habitat. The region produces quality bucks with strong genetics and good antler development.
Eastern wild turkey are found throughout the region. Spring turkey season and fall turkey season both offer opportunities. Mixed woodlands with mature oaks and open fields create ideal turkey habitat. The Red River bottom and Sulphur River basins are particularly productive.
Mourning dove and white-winged dove are abundant across Northeast Texas. Early-season dove hunts are a Texas tradition, and fields near water sources attract birds in impressive numbers. Sunflower fields, grain sorghum, and food plots near ponds or creeks produce the best shooting.
The Red River corridor, Pat Mayse Lake, and other water sources attract migratory waterfowl. Rice fields and flooded timber provide excellent duck hunting. Mallards, teal, wood ducks, and pintails are common throughout the fall and winter months.
Wild hogs are plentiful across Northeast Texas and can be hunted year-round with no bag limit. They cause significant agricultural damage, so landowners welcome hunters who help manage populations. Hog hunting adds year-round action between big game seasons.
Squirrel, quail, and rabbit are found throughout the region, offering family-friendly hunting opportunities. Small game hunting is a great way to introduce new hunters to the sport and make use of properties year-round.
The best hunting properties share key features that support healthy wildlife populations and a great hunting experience. Here is what we look for when evaluating land for hunting.
The best hunting properties have a mix of open areas, brush, timber, and water. Creek bottoms, tree lines, and food plots create natural travel corridors for game. Diverse habitat supports more species and keeps deer, turkey, and other wildlife on the property throughout the year.
Ponds, creeks, and wetlands attract deer, turkey, dove, and waterfowl. Properties with reliable water are more productive for hunting all species. A year-round water source can be the single most important feature on a hunting property.
Agricultural fields, food plots, native browse, and mast-producing trees (oaks, pecans) support healthy game populations. Properties with established food plots or tillable acreage give you a head start on wildlife management. Native forage is equally important for year-round nutrition.
Brush, cedar thickets, and hardwood groves provide bedding and cover. A property with diverse cover holds more game. Deer and turkey need secure places to bed and roost, and thick cover gives them the confidence to stay on the property during daylight hours.
Smaller properties (20 to 50 acres) can support good hunting with proper management. Larger tracts (100+ acres) offer more versatility for different hunting styles and species. Road access and interior trails matter for getting to hunting spots, bringing in equipment, and managing food plots.
What surrounds your property affects game movement. Neighbors who manage their land well benefit everyone. Large adjoining tracts of timber, conservation land, or well-managed hunting properties create a larger habitat block that holds bigger deer and more wildlife.
Clear property lines and good fencing help manage hunting areas and prevent trespassing. Surveyed boundaries give you confidence in what you are buying and where you can hunt. Good boundary fences also help with livestock management on mixed-use properties.
Hunting land in Northeast Texas offers dual value: recreational use and long-term appreciation. You can enjoy the property while it grows in value over time.
Acreage prices in Lamar, Fannin, and surrounding counties remain affordable compared to other Texas regions. You get more land for your money in Northeast Texas.
Properties with timber, water, and good habitat tend to hold value well. Natural resources on the land provide a buffer against market fluctuations.
Hunting leases can generate income when you are not using the property. Well-managed hunting land in this region is in demand among hunters looking for quality access.
Agricultural exemptions can reduce carrying costs on qualifying properties. Timber, wildlife management, and grazing uses may offer property tax advantages for landowners.
As Northeast Texas continues to grow, well-located hunting properties may appreciate in value. Land near growing communities offers both recreation and future development potential.
