Single contiguous parcelEstablished bedding coverBorders two named creeks
This 66.5 acre tract in York Township sits on ground that serious hunters rarely get a shot at, a single contiguous parcel bordered by two named creeks in a county where that kind of water package almost never comes up for sale. Cat Run Creek runs one edge of the property and feeds directly into Captina Creek on the other, and Captina carries designation as an Ohio EPA Outstanding State Water, home to Ohio's only known breeding population of the Eastern Hellbender and more than fifty species of fish. Walk the established trail system at first light and you move quietly between the food plots, the timber, and both creek bottoms, the same corridors the deer and turkey already use to travel and feed. The timber stand is young pole growth in the five to eleven inch range, not yet merchantable but exactly the density that holds deer tight to bedding cover through the season. Belmont County backs up what this ground offers: over 1,500 deer were checked in the 2025 gun season alone, and the county ranked third in all of Ohio for spring turkey harvest that same year. Food plots are already established for both deer and turkey, and the trail network means you are not cutting new access, you are hunting ground that is already worked and already producing. Back in the timber sits a secluded, private building spot, the kind of site a buyer holds onto for the day he decides to put a cabin or a home on it, with electric already run to the road out front. The two creek bottoms do more than mark boundaries, they create natural travel funnels and a year-round water source that patterns game across the whole property. Terrain runs from creek-bottom lowground up through timbered ridge, giving hunters elevation to still-hunt or set stands with the wind working in their favor. At $265,000 this 66.5 acre tract pencils to roughly $3,985 per acre, well under the Belmont County hunting-land average of about $5,141 per acre. Powhatan Point sits where Captina Creek empties into the Ohio River, and the village itself was named for that confluence, so this property is tied into a genuine river-and-creek watershed system rather than an isolated woodlot. Saint Clairsville, the county seat, is about thirty-four minutes out, and Wheeling, West Virginia is roughly twenty miles away for full city services. Dysart Woods, a National Natural Landmark with old-growth oaks over four hundred years old, and Barkcamp State Park are both within range for buyers who want more than hunting out of their land. Southeast Ohio recreational ground in this price band has trended upward every year since 2020 as more buyers chase private outdoor acreage. A 66.5 acre tract with two named creeks, an elite watershed designation, established food plots, a working trail system, and a buildable homesite with power at the road is not a package that sits on the market long in this county. Whether you are chasing whitetail and turkey this fall or banking ground for a future build, this property gives you both the habitat and the option.
