East Fork Ranch & Timber

East Fork Ranch & Timber is a 1,050± acre property located near Clopton in Henry County, Alabama, within the Wiregrass region and a short drive from both Eufaula and Abbeville. The property consists of a combination of timberland, pasture, river frontage, and improvements that support a variety of uses including recreation, timber management, cattle production, and agriculture.

The tract has approximately 2.64 miles of paved county road frontage along three separate county roads, providing multiple access points into the property. An established internal road system extends throughout the tract, allowing access to most areas of the property. Recently installed perimeter fencing surrounds much of the property, and approximately 300± acres have been converted to pasture. These open areas are currently suited for livestock production but could also be utilized for agricultural purposes.

Timber resources include approximately 665± acres of merchantable and pre-merchantable loblolly pine plantation. An additional 76± acres consist of mature hardwood and pine mixed timber, located primarily along the creek and river corridors. The diversity of timber types and age classes provides both wildlife habitat and future management flexibility.

Water is a significant component of the property. The eastern boundary is largely defined by more than two miles of frontage along the East Fork of the Choctawhatchee River. Beaver Creek traverses the property for approximately 1.5 miles, creating additional wildlife habitat and year-round water resources. Two existing ponds are located on the tract, and there are several locations where additional ponds or lakes could potentially be developed.

The primary improvement is an approximately 14,000-square-foot barndominium. The structure includes roughly 2,600 square feet of finished two-story living space, while the remaining 11,400 square feet is currently utilized for equipment and storage. The building offers substantial covered space for equipment, vehicles, agricultural operations, or other uses. An additional equipment pole barn is located on the southern portion of the property. A 51± acre high-fenced area is situated within the property and has historically been used for crop production while limiting wildlife access. Combined with the river frontage, creek system, timber stands, and open pasture, the property provides habitat for deer, turkey, and other native wildlife.

Additional acreage may be available for purchase.

Location Description

East Fork Ranch and Timber is located in part of Alabama’s historic Wiregrass area, known for its strong agricultural heritage, productive timberland, and outstanding recreational opportunities. The landscape is defined by gently rolling topography, mature pine forests, hardwood bottoms, and fertile farmland supported by the area’s mild climate and long growing seasons. Large tracts of managed timberland mixed with creek systems and wildlife habitat make the region especially desirable for hunting, outdoor recreation, and recreational land ownership throughout the Southeast, while still offering convenient access to larger nearby markets such as Dothan, Auburn, and Columbus.

Rich in Southern history and rural tradition, the area was originally inhabited by the Creek Nation before becoming an important farming region during the nineteenth century. Agriculture remains a driving force today, with peanuts, row crops, cattle, and timber production continuing to shape the local economy and culture. The region is widely recognized for its close-knit rural communities, sporting traditions, and scenic countryside that blends working land with recreational appeal.
