Knobby Creek – A Premier 288± Acre Hunting & Recreational Retreat
Welcome to Knobby Creek, a one-of-a-kind outdoorsman’s oasis nestled in Benton County, Missouri. This meticulously managed 288± acre property offers unmatched privacy, breathtaking views, and world-class wildlife habitat designed with the serious outdoor enthusiast in mind.
Property Highlights
• Quaint 1 bed, 1 bath cabin
• Fully finished bunk house
• 32x60 metal equipment building
• Additional storage building
• Multiple premium home build sites with sweeping valley views
• Covered 750-yard shooting range with dual benches and adjustable target system
As you enter through the gates, you’re immediately greeted by a stunning build site overlooking the picturesque valley below. The landscape has been carefully stewarded for wildlife for over two decades, with only minimal, highly selective harvesting. The result? A thriving population of mature whitetail deer and abundant turkey—this property is absolutely loaded with trophy potential.
Rare Water Features
One of the most exceptional features of Knobby Creek is its artesian spring, which feeds a spring-fed pond before flowing into the creek itself. Knobby Creek is sustained by numerous springs throughout the valley and runs into the Freeman Hollow arm of the Lake of the Ozarks, less than 1,000 yards from the property boundary. Reliable year-round water makes this a true sanctuary for wildlife.
