33.7-acre Tyner tract listed for $99,000 expands outdoor access near Daniel Boone

A 33.7-acre forested tract near Tyner was listed for $99,000 on Jan. 15, 2026, presenting a low-density recreational and timberland option that directly borders the Daniel Boone National Forest. The listing, last updated Jan. 15 at 9:58 p.m., emphasizes more than 2,100 feet of shared boundary with protected public land and over 900 feet of a blue-line stream across the parcel.

For Owsley County residents, the property’s combination of mature oak and hickory, with maples, beech and poplar, creates both recreational appeal and potential timber value. At roughly $2,940 per acre, the tract is pitched toward buyers seeking end-of-the-road privacy, off-grid cabin or homesite options, and multi-use outdoor activities including deer and turkey hunting, hiking, camping, ATV and horseback riding. An internal network of trails, rock cliffs and natural outcroppings were cited in the listing as features that enhance access and site choice on the parcel.

The adjacency to thousands of acres of national forest significantly raises the effective outdoor footprint for a private owner, increasing hunting and trail options without the need to own contiguous acreage. That proximity also carries practical implications: access rights, easements, and boundary lines with federal land must be verified, and the presence of a blue-line stream introduces riparian regulations and potential conservation considerations for development or timber operations.

Economically, small recreational parcels can influence local markets by attracting seasonal visitors, hunters, and buyers seeking second homes or hunting camps. For the county, modest increases in property tax receipts and occasional local spending by new owners or rental guests may follow a sale. Timber on the tract may provide periodic income, but realizing timber revenue requires proper management plans, compliance with state and federal rules, and up-front costs for harvesting and road work. Buyers should factor in long-term management costs, access improvements, and potential conservation or logging restrictions tied to stream buffers and adjacency to national forest.

The listing identifies Greg Meade of Whitetail Properties Real Estate in Stanton, KY, as the contact for further details. Interested residents and prospective buyers should verify access, boundaries and other property specifics with the listing agent and public records before making offers.

For Owsley County, the appearance of this parcel on the market highlights continuing demand for recreational timberland that leverages the region’s public forest assets. Whether it becomes a private hunting camp, a small off-grid homestead, or a managed timber holding, the tract underscores how proximity to the Daniel Boone National Forest remains a key asset for land values and local outdoor recreation economy.
