Notes from our photographer: This property has a slope of approximately 25 % from the road which drops relatively quickly into a beautiful tree filled valley, pretty close from the road.  Ideally, someone would build at top of hill near the road for ease of construction, and clear out some trees for an amazing view of nature. Hills are visible in the distance when tree cover is not too thick. There are places that would be easier to clear and grade at this top close to road for a driveway. 

Roads are gravel and well maintained in the LOA community.   This is a gated community with keypad entrance only.

Here are just a few of the things Camden/Benton Missouri is home to:
