WATER

Lee Creek and Cove Creek merge in the northeast corner of the property. Lee Creek flows from Arkansas into Oklahoma and back into Arkansas where it empties into the Arkansas River. There is a water storage impoundment on Lee Creek in Van Buren, AR, supplying 25% of the drinking water for Fort Smith. During high water periods after a rain, Lee Creek can be floated in a canoe or kayak. The owner has built a total of nine ponds on the land, the largest being about 3 acres. Seven of them are stocked with bass, crappie and catfish. There are several freshwater springs on the land, some used to supply water to ponds.

WILDLIFE

In addition to the game fish in the ponds, there is smallmouth fishing in Lee Creek. The land also supports whitetail deer, wild turkey, and an occasional black bear. The ponds attract Canada geese and wild ducks. Several mallard ducks were present May 1st which may indicate they are nesting there. The geese are nesting on the property.
