Description

Keener Springs is a truly rare and remarkable 65-acre property offering three features that are almost impossible to find on a single tract: a natural cave, a half mile of Black River frontage, and a powerful spring producing up to 27 million gallons of water per day. Together, these elements create a property that is visually stunning, historically significant, and full of opportunity.
The land itself is a beautiful mix of rolling terrain, mature timber, river bottom, and scenic water features. The constant flow from the spring feeds a picturesque spring pond before making its way toward the Black River, creating an environment that feels peaceful and alive with natural energy. Liggett Creek also runs through the property, serving as another feeder into the Black River and adding even more character and water features to the landscape. A walk across the spring pond bridge and along the river leads to an impressive bluff wall, where a large cave sits at its base-an unforgettable natural landmark that defines this property.
Keener Springs also carries a deep and meaningful history. During the Civil War, the grounds were used as a field hospital, adding a unique historical element rarely found with recreational properties today.
The property includes a home that has been recently remodeled, along with three cabins currently being used as short-term rentals. The property has also been used as a wedding venue and event space, offering multiple income-producing opportunities while still leaving room for personal use, expansion, or further development.
Whether you envision a private retreat, a recreational destination, a legacy property, or a unique investment opportunity, Keener Springs offers a combination of natural beauty, water resources, river frontage, and history that is exceptionally hard to duplicate.
Located in Southern Missouri, the property is also positioned for convenient access. The future Interstate 57 expansion, scheduled for completion in fall 2026, will make getting to the property even easier while increasing accessibility to the region.
Keener Springs is more than just land-it is a one-of-a-kind property with features that will never be replicated.
