SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
Excellent tract at Cedar Gap Hollow South which is located at the south end of Cedar Gap Hollow. Good access and several potential sites for building, camping and hunting on this property! This tract is one of the closest tracts to the entrance at Cedar Gap Hollow, making for easier access to the paved road and to Highway 60.
PLEASE NOTE: This property has been leased/sold for the last couple of years. The person who was using the property had two portable buildings delivered and he was using the buildings for camping/storage. The buildings have now been removed and the property is ready for a new owner! You will certainly find some debris/items that were left by the previous resident BUT it also looks like he may have put some work into installing a short driveway on the east side of the property (his buildings were on the east side of the property).
Many of the videos/pictures in this listing page show the buildings because they had not yet been removed when we were able to take videos of the property (although the property had already been vacated). The buildings are no longer on the property (they were never our buildings) but the videos still show the properties quite well. As with any of our available properties, please do feel free to visit the property in person before making a purchase.
Although the east side of this property does not offer much “level” area for a yard, it does offer privacy and some great views. The west side of the property may be a better option if you are looking for a larger “level” area for camping or building. Feel free to visit the property and investigate the “lay of the land”!
Well-located acreage not too far from Springfield, Missouri but still VERY private and rural. This acreage is located in a small Rural Development called “Cedar Gap Hollow” which is located within 3 miles of the popular “Cedar Gap Conservation Area” and only about 35 miles from Springfield, MO.
“Cedar Gap 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 “Cedar Gap Hollow”. If you have been waiting for a property for your “tiny home” or for your “shipping container home” then you may have finally found what you are looking for!
PLEASE NOTE: “Cedar Gap Hollow” is a new Rural Development and makes use of a gravel easement road system. When you visit Cedar Gap Hollow please use caution and bring your four wheel drive.
In the aerial video above we are looking west over the property. The two “portable buildings” that you see in the photo have already been removed from the property. The property is the highest at its east side (about where the buildings are located in the photo) and it slopes down as you move to the west. It is the lowest by its west side where you will find the little creek bed (and another road, which borders the west side).
Below, we have a “winter time” photo of the little creek which crosses over the west side of the property.
In the photo above we are checking out the creek on the west side of the property. This is a “wet weather” creek so it does not flow all year.
Cedar Gap Hollow South is an area of about 16 tracts located at the south side of Cedar Gap Hollow (as shown on the map above). Since these tracts are located at the south side of this rural development, they tend to have good access to Highway 60. This listing is for Tract 4 which is 6.62 acres in size and can be seen on the aerial photo 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 Tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow are sold through our partner company which is Regions Land Company. The sales process is the same as you see on the InstantAcres website, but the paperwork will shows Regions Land Company as the “seller”.
The photo above was taken at the west side of the property. The white truck is parked on the easement road (which can not been seen in the photo). The west side of the property has a pretty meadow and even a tiny pond.
The photo above shows the tiny “pond” on the west side of the property. Yes, it really is a pond! It just has not been cleaned out for several decades (it is surprising that it is holding any water at all…).
The map above shows how this tract is situated. It borders the gravel easement road along its entire east side and most of its west side. This is Tract 4 at Cedar Gap Hollow. There is a meadow area on the west side of the property that appears to contain a small pond. The meadow is overgrown and needs to be mowed with a brush-hog. The east side of the property has a short driveway that leads in to a small site (which is where the portable cabins were located).
This property is the highest on the east side and it slopes down as you move to the west.
The topo map above gives you an idea of the “lay of the land”. Topo maps can be confusing so be sure to check out the drone video below to see how the land is situated.

Within just a few miles of the property you will find several small towns, as well as some great rivers and creeks. You are also within driving distance of the Mark Twain National Forest which gives you literally thousands of acres of additional land for hunting, trail riding and recreation.
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 this map should be very helpful for exploring the property. This tract has been partially surveyed and MapRight should be helpful if you would like to find the survey markers.
About the free “MapRight” app that you can use to help you explore your property:
If you download the free “MapRight” app to your phone or tablet then it is generally fairly easy to use it to locate your property. After you have the app on your phone/tablet simply go to the listing page for your property (on whatever device you have downloaded the app to) and locate the actual interactive map on the listing page for the specific property. Toward the top left corner of the Interactive Map you will see a link that says “View Full Screen”. Click on this link and the webpage will ask you if you want to open the Interactive Map within the app (which must already be on your phone/tablet). After you say “Yes” to this it will ask permission to access your GPS (this is necessary and your GPS must also be on). After that, the interactive map should open up within the “MapRight” app on your screen AND there should be a colored dot on the map to indicate right where you are. It is BY FAR the best way to drive to the property and to explore the boundaries. Give us a call or send us an email if you have questions about this. Also, our office is only about 15 minutes west of Cedar Gap Hollow and if you stop by we will be happy to help you get it all set up on your phone or tablet.
You do NOT need any type of subscription to “MapRight” in order to use the app. In fact, many people tell us it works better if you do NOT get a subscription or any for any type of membership. Just download the app and then follow the instructions above. And remember, we are here to help if you have trouble getting it to work!
PLEASE NOTE: Recently, we have been told that MapRight has changed their program and that they now require a subscription to use it as shown above. If this is true, then you could potentially just get a free “trial subscription” to see if it is suitable for your needs.

Please remember that MapRight is in no way intended or able to replace a survey and the MapRight boundaries shown on the map are only approximate.
This particular tract is located in a section of Cedar Gap Hollow which is known as “Cedar Gap Hollow South”. The tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow South are excellent for hunting. We had placed several “game-cams” on some of the tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow South (and in several spots throughout Cedar Gap Hollow) and we got numerous photos of multiple deer including quite a few large bucks. We also got photos of a large number of wild turkeys as well as some mischievous raccoons!
Perhaps one of the main features of Cedar Gap Hollow South is that these tracts are very close to the paved road and to Highway 60, making access much easier than to some of the more remote tracts.
DIRECTIONS: To get to the property from Springfield, Missouri just go east on Highway 60 from about 30 miles to the town of Seymour. Now continue heading east on Highway 60 for about 5 miles and look for the road going north off of Highway 60 which is called “Connector Road”. As a landmark, you will see Highway O going south and this is where you will go NORTH onto the “Connector Road”. Go north for about 1/8 of a mile on the “Connector Road” and then the gravel easement road will begin (go straight at the “T” onto the gravel roadway. Take the gravel easement road northerly to the property.
Please be sure to print out the maps/directions from this listing page when you visit the property. We will be happy to email the maps to you if you would like. Please contact us before making the trip to the property as there may be a locked cable/gate toward the start of the easement road. We will be happy to provide you with the combo for the lock.
Property within an hour of Springfield has been an excellent investment over the last several decades. As Springfield continues to grow the demand for tracts in this area continues to grow at a rapid rate. Lock in your property now, while you still can!

Cedar Gap Hollow Property Covenants
All of the tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow have setback distances from the easement road(s). These setback areas are also designated utility easements so that all owners shall have the option of electric service. 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).
Fences/gates may not be placed within 50 feet of the centerline of the easement road(s) 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.
In the aerial photo above we are now looking basically easterly over the property. Toward the bottom of the photo you can see the gravel easement road which borders the west side of the property. Looking east from there you can see a small part of the gravel creek bed and toward the lower right side of the photo you can see the meadow area at the west side of the property. Looking easterly from there the land rises up and when you get to the east side you can see the two portable buildings which were near the east side of the property when the photo was taken.
In the aerial photo above we are looking down at the meadow area toward the west side of the property. If you look closely you can just barely see the tiny pond which is toward the bottom, middle of the photo.
In the aerial photo map above you can see the location of the property which has a very private “feel” but is still only about a mile north of Highway 60 (as seen at the bottom of the photo).
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 photo above shows an interesting spot we found on the east edge of the creek bed on the property. There is a small wall made of layers of rock and the water was coming out from the rock and into the creek (it had rained the day before we took this video).
