SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
UPDATE: This tract has been leased out for quite some time and is now available for sale! This tract does have a private driveway and a large cleared site which will save you quite a bit of time and money, as you will not have to install your own driveway and site (unless you wish to do so).
One of our guys made a visit to the property recently, and he reported that the folks who were leasing/using the property had left some items/debris/trash behind. He said it appeared that they were probably starting to set up a “homestead” but did not get it completed. He reported that there did appear to be quite a bit of stuff that be be usable for someone else who may want to camp and/or build on the property. He also reported that there was some trash in and around the site (can be seen in the video below). It is possible that much of the trash/debris could simply be burned or if you choose to do so you could haul the debris/trash off with a truck and/or a trailer.
You will notice in the video that there appears to be an old car parked at the cleared site on the property. We have NO idea if this car runs or any other details about it. Although we do not have any type of title or paperwork for the car we would be happy to provide a “bill of sale” for the car to the new buyer of the property. The “bill of sale” will simply transfer any rights we may have in the car (if any) to the new owner of the property. The car appears to be abandoned and its only value may be as scrap, but you be the judge!
The MAIN thing that our guys noticed after visiting the property was that it has an AMAZING view from the cleared site! As you look westerly from the cleared site you have an unobstructed view of several beautiful ridges/hills off in the distance. With this stunning view to the west you can plan on seeing some spectacular sunsets from your private acreage in the Ozarks!
Below, we have uploaded a recent video that shows the “Abandoned Homestead” on this property. It does need some clean-up but there may be some useful items left behind – or maybe not… – Also, this video was taken just after we got a couple of inches of snow (which is somewhat unusual for this area of the Ozarks).

As always, please do feel free to visit this property before making the down payment so that you can see exactly how it currently looks.
We have left most of the remainder of this listing page basically unchanged, so you will be viewing the listing page that was created a couple of years ago, BEFORE the people that were using the property began creating the homestead.
The video above was taken recently and does show the debris/partial homestead on the property. The videos/pictures in the remainder of this listing were taken BEFORE the property was originally sold/leased and they do not show the debris/stuff on the property (like the video above does). If we have worded any of this in a confusing way please let us know!
Please Note: Although many of the maps/videos in this listing show this tract as being “6 Acres” in size, the completed survey shows us that the property is actually a full 7.362 acres in size. We have tried to update the size throughout the text of the listing but we have not yet been able to create new maps/videos.
Nicely wooded 7.362 acre tract at Cave Hollow East in an excellent part of the Ozarks. Very private tract loaded with opportunities for off-grid living as well as camping, hunting, investment and more!
The tracts at Cave Hollow East offer a large amount of privacy and are accessed off of a private easement road which comes off a low-traffic County Road. Plus, this tract is only about 10 minutes from a major lake (Bull Shoals Lake) and 20 minutes from a major city (Mountain Home, Arkansas).
If you click on the video below you can check out a “Drone Video” of this private acreage:

Please be sure to watch the other videos farther down on this listing page. This heavily wooded tract will make someone an excellent property! Although we always try to provide numerous videos, maps and information, we highly recommend that you visit a potential tract before making a purchase so that you can get a true “feel” for the property and the area.
Cave Hollow is located in an ideal location in the southern Missouri Ozarks. VERY private yet just a short drive to excellent cities and major lakes.
“Cave Hollow” is one of our “Homesteader Friendly Rural Developments”. This simply means that the standard Property Covenant requiring a minimum 600 square foot concrete foundation for a residence does NOT apply to the tracts at “Cave Hollow”. If you have been waiting for a property for your “tiny home”, your “shipping container home” or your “off-grid” plans then you may have finally found what you are looking for!
PLEASE NOTE: Cave Hollow makes use of a private, gravel easement road system for access to the tracts. The easement roads are “minimum maintenance roads” that have been designed for use by a four-wheel drive truck/SUV. Having four-wheel drive is very helpful when you need it, and having a truck or an SUV gives you more clearance than a car, which can be very helpful if you encounter rough spots in the road.
Cave Hollow is an “Off-Grid” rural development. This means that power is not within the development. Power is within the area (within a mile of the subdivision) but has not been run to any tracts within Cave Hollow. It would be the responsibility on an individual buyer to obtain power, if they so desired. Many buyers of “Off-Grid” properties plan to use an alternative source of power such as solar, wind or a generator (if those buyers require power for their intended use of the tract). We have also found that a large number of buyers have no interest in power, as they plan to use their property for hunting or recreational purposes.
Because Cave Hollow is outside of any city limits there are no city or public water/sewer lines in the area. A buyer of a Cave Hollow tract who requires a permanent water source would want to look into a well or a cistern (water storage tank). On a Cave Hollow tract over 5 acres in size (most tracts) you can construct your own septic/waste system (if desired) which could include a standard septic, a lagoon, a properly built outhouse or many other alternative style waste disposal systems.
We did have cell phone service in the several areas in Cave Hollow where we made or received phone calls. You are likely to have better cell service on a “ridge” than within a “valley”. The wi-fi in our truck worked just fine at Cave Hollow (probably AT&T based wi-fi?).
In the aerial photo above we are looking southerly over the property. The truck is parked on the easement road and the land is on the right side of the road.
Cave Hollow East is an area of about 20 tracts located at the east side of Cave Hollow (as shown on the map above). These tracts are very private because they are not accessed off of the Highway (they are accessed off of the County Road and the Easement Road). They offer excellent options for camping, off-grid building, hunting and recreation.
This listing is for Tract E which is 7.362 acres in size and can be seen on the map above.
The hunting and wildlife watching opportunities in this area are EXCELLENT with a large population of white-tailed deer as well as wild turkey. This property could also be suitable for off-grid building, homesteading, camping and recreation.

The map above shows how this tract is situated (the property is 7.362 acres in size). It borders the private easement road for about 265 feet along its east side and borders a tiny “wet-weather” creek bed along its west side for about 315 feet. The property appears to be a nice mixture of wooded areas and natural clearings.
The video below is an “Intro Video” in which we explore the property and the area using the MapRight Map (you will find the actual MapRight Map farther down in this listing):

Check out the topo map below to see how this property is situated:
The topo map above gives you an idea of the “lay of the land”. The map shows that this property is the highest at its east side, by the easement road. It slopes down as you move westerly toward the creek bed. This property has a combination of high-quality off-grid building/camping sites and world-class views!
Topo maps can be confusing so be sure to also watch the drone video (above) to see how the land is situated.
In the aerial photo above we are facing west over the property from across the easement road (truck is parked on the easement road).
The interactive map (below) is a great way to explore the property and the area, right from your home. You can zoom in, zoom out and even select different “base layers” to show the roads and areas in or around the property. You can zoom in and out by clicking on the “+” or “-” buttons on the right side of the interactive map:
The map above was created with a program called “MapRight”. The property boundaries are approximate but it should be very helpful for exploring the property. The tracts at Cave Hollow have been surveyed with the corners marked (look for metal pin with a plastic cap).

As we mentioned earlier, the hunting in this area is amazing. You can expect to see huge white-tailed deer as well as very large wild turkey. If you are interested in the World Class fishing just take the very short drive to Bull Shoals Lake which is only about 10 minutes west of the property!
You can definitely hunt on your property (or just take photos of the amazing wildlife) and you are also only a few minutes from a lifetime of exciting fishing and water-sports at the enormous Bull Shoals Lake!

What can you do on your new property at Cave Hollow?
Although this tract is close to a major city (Mountain Home), it is NOT subject to the zoning regulations that you will find in the immediate Mountain Home area!

Cave Hollow Property Covenants
All of the tracts at Cave Hollow have setback distances from the easement road(s). These setback areas are privacy buffers and are also designated utility easements so that owners may potentially have the option of electric service in the future (which would be the responsibility of individual tract owners and is in no way guaranteed by us). All buildings, homesites, parking areas, storage areas, etc. must be at least 100 feet from the centerline of the easement road (this area acts as a privacy setback as well as a utility easement). Power is NOT currently within the development.
Fences/gates may not be placed within 50 feet of the center line of the easement road(s) and county road, as this area is a designated road easement area. Although there is a 30 foot setback for building/storage from the sides and rear of each tract you CAN fence directly up to the sides and rear of each tract (so long as all fencing is at least 50 feet off any shared roadway).
It is important to note that because of the 100 foot setback from the road (for privacy and utility purposes) you will likely need to create some type of driveway on your property, in order to get beyond the setback distance for parking and to create your building site/campsite. If an available property already has a driveway/building site it will be noted in the listing for that property.
This tract represents an excellent opportunity for building your own off-grid home or cabin as there are no building permits required in this area! You and your friends/family can build your own cabin without permits or inspections.
The property is a nice mixture of wooded areas and open areas.
