With approximately 1,992 feet of frontage on the South Fork and an additional 1,630 feet along Big Clouds Creek, the property provides year-round access for kayaking, fishing, and enjoying the natural beauty of the area. In addition, Red Fox Farm borders Watson Mill Bridge State Park on two sides, which consists of over 1,100 acres of protected natural land.
