Introducing the Carroll 1,445 a rare opportunity of private land ownership. Currently known as MS Five Star Hunting Club, this Carroll County, MS diamond is the complete sportsman package and its wildlife diversity is unmatched, with some trophy harvest evidence to prove it!
Formed in the late 1970s, MS Five Star has been a premier hunting club for over four decades. The 1,445 acre contiguous tract is situated nine miles northeast of Greenwood, on the edge of Carroll and Leflore Counties.
The center of the property is the shining star: Sharkey Bayou. A natural slough of cypress trees, tupelo gum trees, and buck brush, Sharkey Bayou has been a landmark for waterfowl for hundreds of years. Due to its size of over 1,000 acres, it provides vast opportunities for the avid duck hunter with endless hunting setups, wind directions, and locations. As the water in the bayou gets low, natural grasses grow, giving ducks a natural food source. Access to the Sharkey Bayou proves to be an easy task, as the water floods to a covered boat dock located behind the lodgea morning boat ride that will never get old.
Through the years, a levee and water control structures were established on the south side of the bayou for the purpose of planting food and flooding green timber that produces acorns to enhance the duck habitat. A well is used to pump these particular holes.
While MS Five Star is known for waterfowl hunting, the deer game is some of the best in the Delta. Large Mississippi whitetails roam the hundreds of acres of mixed hardwood and cypress trees. Agriculture fields border the property to the south, allowing the deer to feed on high protein crops during the summer months. Approximately ten acres of deer food plots are currently planted. Multiple deer have been seen with each property visit.
As you enter the property from the west, a gravel road takes you directly to a 5,000 square foot cabin. Built on stilts, the cabin features five private suites, and is large enough to host multiple groups. There is a sixth living space connected to a common area with a fireplace and kitchen. This can be utilized for a caretaker or a master suite. Since the cabin is on stilts, there is additional square footage to keep boats, ATVs, and other necessities. Storage and workspace is not an issue, as multiple shops and a pole barn are in place. Additional features include a hunting storage room, a hunting locker room, a cleaning shed, and dog kennels
A great internal road system encompasses the 1,445 acre tract, providing ease of access to any choice of hunting. The location is unique for the Mississippi Delta, presenting the freedom to harvest all types of wildlife.
Passive income is an opportunity for this property through timber investment. Due to the size and age of the hardwoods, it would be beneficial to select-cut some timber. This will also allow for a thick underbrush to growa whitetail haven!
The Carroll 1,445 provides seclusion, recreational enjoyment, and long-term investment. Whether you are wanting a private getaway, family or corporate retreat, or a place to start your own hunting club, MS Five Star is worth considering!
