The land is completely covered with timber that is native to southeastern Oklahoma being primarily a variety of different types of oak trees. There was a recent timber harvest on much of the property which has allowed sunlight to reach the forest floor and thus promote the growth of grasses and Forbes that are beneficial to wildlife. There are areas that could potentially be cleared for pasture or food plot areas for wildlife. Roughly 70% of the 110 acres lies in a FEMA Flood Zone A. About 30% of the land on the South side of the property lies outside of the flood zone designation.
