De Valls Bluff, AR 72041(Prairie County)

The Devalls Bluff Hunting Lodge is located along the White River and offers a truly unique opportunity to acquire a great hunting and fishing camp, or an investment property. The property is in very close proximity to thousands of acres of White River Refuge and the Wattensaw Wildlife Management Area. This lodge has world class hunting and fishing opportunities literally at its doorstep. The unique dwelling overlooks the river, and a state maintained concrete boat ramp is essentially next door to the property pull your boat up in the yard and within a few minutes you can be at the refuge or WMA ready to hunt ducks, deer, or turkeys. This is a turn-key opportunity to step into a White River hunting lodge that is fully furnished and ready to go. Its unique design also includes a large garage and shop area that is ideal for storage of multiple boats and ATVs. Although sitting directly on the riverbank, the lodge was designed and built to handle the rivers flooding. Built on blocks above the ground floor shop, the upstairs living quarters stayed dry even during the 100 year flood of 2011 when the floodwaters crossed I-40 just above the lodge. It takes a significant flood event to restrict access to the lodge.

Situated on 3.65 acres of riverfront property, it has no close neighbors and room to spread out for recreational activities. The city of Devalls Bluff is a quiet river community, but has everything a hunting lodge will need with gas and groceries in town, along with a world-famous BBQ restaurant. Other fine dining is in nearby cities and its a short drive to the convenience of larger cities, if desired.

The lodge has a well-equipped kitchen, a large bunkroom, laundry facilities, full bath, a 10 x 30 screened-in porch overlooking the river, and another 10 x 30 balcony on the back side. The lodge has 1456 square feet of living space as well as the 600 square feet of balcony and screened porch. The lodge is on the Devalls Bluff city water but has its own septic system. The current, out-of-town owners have been leasing the property out as an AirBNB property, and have been quite successful at keeping it steadily occupied. It has a rating of 4.95 stars on AirBNB with 40 reviews. Occupancy stays consistently full during the hunting season with out-of-state hunters, and has been very busy with workers and COE personnel working on the White River irrigation system and pumping station at Devalls Bluff.
