SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
This very private acreage already has a private driveway that winds back to a clearing which could be suitable for building, camping and hunting.
Excellent 7.823 acre tract at Whitetail Ridge North near the Niangua River. Good access and numerous potential sites for building, camping and hunting on this property (in addition to the existing site there are other locations where you could add additional sites).
PLEASE NOTE: This property was leased out for about a year, and the person who was leasing the property traded it back to us for a property that was closer to his home. In the videos and pictures you will notice a yellow shipping container on the property – this is NOT our shipping container, it belongs to the person who was leasing the property. It will be removed in the near future. We apologize for the inconvenience and if you have any questions about that please let us know.

Amazing location in the Ozarks. This acreage is located in a small Rural Development called “Whitetail Ridge” which is located within about 4 miles of the popular “Bennett Spring State Park” and even closer to the famous Niangua River. Also only about 10-15 miles from Lebanon, MO and less than an hour from Springfield, MO.
“Whitetail Ridge” 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 “Whitetail Ridge”. 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: “Whitetail Ridge” is a new Rural Development and we are currently in the process of having the easement road system smoothed out and widened. When you visit Whitetail Ridge please use caution and bring your truck or suv.
The photo above shows a potential building/camping site on the property.

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.
It looks like someone had started to build a wall on the property? We don’t really know!
This property is located in one of the most popular areas of the Ozarks. “Whitetail Ridge” is located in westernmost Laclede County, Missouri. People come from all over the state (and the country) to visit this area which includes Bennett Spring State Park and the Niangua River. This area is WELL KNOWN for a large and active deer and turkey population and this particular section of the Niangua River is one of the only places in Missouri where you can fish for rainbow and brown trout. This area is also within a short driving distance to Springfield (which is the largest city in southern Missouri).
The map above shows the property’s approximate location, relative to the Niangua River, Bennett Spring State Park (lower left) and the Barclay Conservation Area (upper left). All of this within about 5 miles of the property!
Within just a few miles of your private acreage at Whitetail Ridge you will find close to 10,000 acres of public land, most of which is open for hunting, fishing and exploring. You can set up your camp/cabin on your private tract and also have use of thousands of acres and miles of top-quality river frontage within just a few miles of your property!
You will find this property toward the center of the map above (shown in red). The “Lead Mine Conservation Area” is the blue shaded area in the upper left corner of the map and it is a huge tract of land which is open for hunting, swimming, fishing, horseback riding and more (there is even a public shooting range). The Niangua River runs through Bennett Spring State Park and goes northerly through the Barclay Conservation Area and the Lead Mine Conservation Area before flowing directly into the famous Lake of the Ozarks (about 15 miles north of Whitetail Ridge). Toward the bottom right corner of the map you will see Lebanon, Missouri which is a great town with numerous opportunities for employment, shopping and more!

As we mentioned earlier on this page, the hunting in this area is world class. There is an excellent population of whitetailed deer and more turkeys than we have seen on practically any other property. Our guys set up a couple of game cams at Whitetail Ridge and they got hundreds of photo of large deer and turkey.
You can definitely hunt on your property and you are also just a short drive to THOUSANDS of acres of public land for additional hunting, fishing, trail riding and recreation.
DIRECTIONS: To get to Whitetail Ridge from Lebanon, Missouri just go west on Highway 64 for about 12 miles to Bennett Springs State Park. Just BEFORE you cross the bridge over the Niangua River you go right (north) onto Marigold Drive (this is shown on many maps as Harvest Road but the sign at the road will say “Marigold”). Go a little over half a mile and you will come to a “Y” in the road. Go left at the “Y” (you are now REALLY on Marigold Drive). Continue north on Marigold Drive for about 2 1/2 miles and you will come to a “T” in the road. Go right (east) at the “T” and you are now on “Industry Road”. You go a little less than 1/2 a mile on Industry Road and you will see Whitetail Ridge on the left side (north side) of the road. Go north onto the easement road and proceed to the property.
There are actually several different ways to get to this property from Lebanon, so feel free to explore!
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 when you contact us. As we mentioned earlier, the MapRight app is a VERY helpful tool when you visit the property. It is great to use when driving to the property and it is even better to use when you arrive.
Property near a major river or public land has been an excellent investment over the last several decades. As this area continues to grow, the demand for acreage continues to grow at a rapid rate. Lock in your property now, while you still can!
