Bates Hollow Farm is a small, family-owned and operated hunting property dedicated to providing hunters of all ages with an unforgettable outdoor experience. Our goal is not only to give hunters the opportunity to take home a trophy deer, but also to immerse themselves in the beauty, peace, and nature of the great outdoors.
Located on 1,300 acres of beautiful Ozark terrain, Bates Hollow Farm offers a diverse mix of wooded mountain landscapes and open fields, providing a variety of hunting opportunities. The property is surrounded by a spring-fed creek, adding to the natural beauty and wildlife habitat of the farm.
For a comfortable and successful hunt, we have more than 15 enclosed hunting blinds strategically placed throughout the property, providing hunters with excellent cover and a comfortable place to spend their time in the field.
After a long day of hunting, guests can relax and unwind at one of our two fully equipped homes, each featuring a full kitchen and bathroom. We also have an event center designed with hunters and families in mind.
Two fully equipped homes
Full kitchen and bathroom in each, a short drive from every blind on the property.
At Bates Hollow Farm, we believe a hunting trip should be about more than just the harvest. It's about spending time outdoors, creating memories with family and friends, experiencing the Ozarks, and enjoying everything nature has to offer.
Come experience Bates Hollow Farm and make your next hunt one to remember.
