Location & Utilities
Where is the property located?
Horseshoe Bend is a 9,000+/- acre golf and lake resort community in the Ozark Mountains of Izard County, Arkansas. As an incorporated city with its own police, fire department, library, and post office, it offers full-time-town convenience alongside two golf courses, three lakes, and a crystal-clear river.
What about utilities?
Water, phone, and electric service are available to most lots in Horseshoe Bend, with sewer handled by an approved septic system. Building follows the International Building Code 2000, enforced by the City of Horseshoe Bend's building inspector.
What will the road surface be like?
Lots in Horseshoe Bend are on public paved roads, with terrain that is flat to rolling in nature and mostly treed with some clearing. Lots in the Pioneer Park Addition, for example, front paved roads along Catbird Drive, Blackbird Lane, and Nightengale Drive.
Financing
What is the minimum down payment amount to purchase and are there closing costs?
A minimum of $999 down payment is required for purchase. Closing costs are currently a nominal $249.00 for us to prepare all of the legal documents required for the contract for deed.
How does the contract-for-deed process work?
Once you and CCL agree on a property and payment plan, we send you a contract for deed to sign. After both parties sign, the land is yours to use while you make payments directly to us — no bank, no middleman. We hold the deed until the contract is paid in full, then convey it to you, completing your ownership.
Zoning & Taxes
What zoning applies to the property, and what are the property taxes for the parcel?
The zoning allows Residential/Recreational. Property taxes on rural, undeveloped land are generally very inexpensive; however, the amount can vary based on location and the value of surrounding properties. Please ask your sales associate if you need a more accurate estimation of a given tract.
Land Use & Rights
Are mineral rights included?
By default, Classic Country Land retains the mineral rights where we hold them, so they don't automatically transfer with the land. But here's the good news: on many of our properties we do hold the mineral rights — and we're happy to sell them with your tract. If owning the minerals under your land matters to you, ask us: we'll tell you exactly what's available for this property and what it would add.
Is there an hoa or poa?
Not every property in our inventory carries the same restrictions. Many of our tracts have no HOA or POA at all, while some developments do include a property owners' association with its own dues and covenants. The recorded restrictions for your specific property control here — check the Restrictions document on this page, or give us a call and we'll walk you through exactly what applies to the parcel you're looking at.
Can I camp or park an rv on my land?
Yes. Every development Classic Country Land developed allows RVs, campers and tiny homes, so you can camp on your land now and build later, or not build at all. There's no deadline to build. Many of our tracts don't have electricity on site, so check the utilities answer above; plenty of owners use solar or a generator. Counties set their own rules on things like septic and full-time occupancy, so a quick call to the county is worth it before you move in full-time.
Are mobile or manufactured homes allowed?
Yes. Mobile and manufactured homes are allowed on the developments Classic Country Land developed. Counties set their own rules for placing a home, such as permits, septic and foundation requirements, so check with the county before you move one in. The Restrictions document on this page lists the details for your specific property.
Is hunting allowed?
Many of our rural tracts are well suited to hunting, and plenty of owners use their land that way. Some developments' recorded restrictions do limit it, though, so this varies property to property. Check the Restrictions document on this page for your specific tract, or call us and we'll tell you exactly what's allowed.
