If you live in the Pine Belt, you know that finding small tracts of land with real creek frontage is rare. Most creekfront properties are tied up in large family holdings or priced out of reach. That’s why this **8.51-acre tract on WPA Road in Lamar County** stands out.
Black Creek: A Local Treasure
Black Creek is one of South Mississippi’s most scenic waterways, winding its way through Lamar County with sandy banks, shaded bends, and clear water that’s perfect for swimming, kayaking, or wade fishing. This property offers nearly **876 feet of creek frontage**, complete with rare cypress trees, sandy banks for relaxing, and deep pools ideal for a hot summer plunge.
The Land
The property is naturally wooded with a mix of pine and hardwood, offering both shade and privacy. Along the creek, mature bald cypress provide a striking backdrop. The timber and understory create excellent wildlife habitat, making the property a good fit for anyone who enjoys hunting for year-round recreation. With about 480 feet of paved frontage on WPA Road, access is simple, and you’re only a mile off Highway 98. From there, it’s a quick drive to Sumrall or West Hattiesburg, so grabbing supplies for a weekend campout is no problem.
A Weekend Retreat
This tract is best suited for recreational use. Think campfires by the water, kids splashing in the shallows, an early morning paddle down Black Creek, or just unplugging from the week’s routine. It’s the kind of property where memories are made — a place to slow down and enjoy time outdoors with family and friends.
Affordable Opportunity
At only $6,500 per acre, this property is priced well below most comparable Lamar County tracts. For local buyers looking for a convenient and affordable place to get away, it checks all the boxes.
