Property Description

This is a full section in Cedar Springs (lower Cedar Springs) that on the map sits at a diagonal, with one corner touching the park.  However, it is not a legal entrance to Big Bend. It offers rugged mountain tops and rolling hills to build whatever you wish.  There is a newer metal cabin on the SE portion of the property. It was to be used as a weekend retreat.  Years ago, the National Park created a “water guzzler” for the wildlife. That is where the water catchment systems got started. Deer and other native wildlife find this area home. There are no restrictions, so build what you want if you want.

The county has a “Dark Sky” ordinance to keep the lights low. Visit their website @ McDonaldObservatory.org/lighting.
