I chose this property because there are no immediate neighbors so no intrusion into my personal business or hobbies. It has the benefit of nearby excellent small Amish businesses such as a restaurant and fully stocked grocery plus other fruit and vegetable markets. It is close the Leadmine Conservation area which provides miles of horseback trails and the Niangua River. It is only a short drive to Bennet Spring for trout fishing or Lake Pomme de Terre for swimming, boating and fishing. Also it is a drivable distance to the founding location of Bass Pro Shops in Springfield and Branson, Missouri, the country music capital of the world. Lucas Oil Speedway , at Wheatland , Mo. is just a short drive away. The lane through the property into the ranch house gives the aura of coming into another world of peace and quiet. Deer and turkey abound on the property .
