Elpis Road

Little River Timberland offers an attractive 180 acre+/- timberland investment and recreation opportunity with 2,000+/- feet of maintained road frontage accessing quality productive land as well as nearly 1.5 miles of the meandering Little River. Located in central New York’s Tug Hill region in northwestern Oneida County, Little River Timberland sits just 4 miles west of McConnellsville, New York and 8 miles north of Oneida Lake’s shoreline. The property is accessed along Elpis Road within a neighborhood of full-time and seasonal residences as well as large, wooded lots, both private and state owned. The terrain is flat to slightly rolling with a very easy north facing slope leading to the Little River along the northern boundary. Little River flows west out of the West Branch Fish Creek which is regularly stocked with trout and Atlantic salmon. A 2018 timber inventory shows a timber volume of 1,272 MBF (6 MBF / acre) dominated by red maple, hemlock, white pine, and black cherry, and a considerable amount of veneer sugar maple (timber inventory available upon request). Little River Timberland’s superb location provides an avenue to a robust forest products market as well as ample recreation opportunities including fishing in Onedia Lake, Lake Ontario, or the area’s many stocked trout streams. Alongside the ample golf courses in the nearby towns and hamlets, more traditional recreational pursuits abound, including hunting, ATVs, and snowmobiling, as well as ski trails and state parks within the nearby Tug Hill plateau. Proximity to I-90 and I-81 provide connection to much of New York State. Syracuse and Utica are only a 40-minute drive, while Buffalo and Albany, New York as well as Pennsylvania and Canada can each be reached in under 3 hours.
