Description

Happy Valley, a new opportunity for recreational retreat near Friendship, Indiana is ready for its next chapter and ownership! Located at the end of a quiet county road, this parcel appears to be an early settler’s farm. Stone walls and foundations are plenty, a potential treasure hunter or metal detector’s dream. There is a brand-new parking area with new gravel wide enough to park multiple campers, RVs and vehicles. There is electric and internet on site with brand-new hookups and meters right off the parking area. The property is full of deer and turkey, several of which were hanging around on the day the property was photographed. Trail cameras on site have daily photos of wildlife, including a rare color phase coyote that has more whites, reds and black tones than a normal coyote pelt. 2 creeks merge on the property and flow out to Ceasar’s Creek, which ultimately dumps into Laughery Creek. From the camping area, a trail leads down to the creek and another leads across the hillside. The stone walls are in several places of the property and likely well over 100 years old. Some of the walls follow the creek and some run straight up the hill, probably to keep livestock in certain areas or to signify boundary lines. It would be very interesting to scan the hills with a metal detector in search of historical pieces. The south half of the property is a more open and mature hardwood stand that has had a strategic cut. The north half of the parcel has more cedar and early successional growth, which logically had a lot of deer and turkey sign. Friendship is known for 2 major local events; the Friendship Flea Markets and it is the home of the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association. Both groups are famous in Southeast Indiana and bring visitors from all 50 states. Property viewing is by appointment only for pre-qualified buyers, so please refrain from entering the property without prior scheduling.
