A living landmark
The park George Jones built when he came home to East Texas.
In the early 1980s the Possum cleared this woodland, raised a two-story pine-log house, and put a covered stage in a pine clearing. Holiday weekends brought more than twenty thousand fans. Nancy sold tickets from a four-wheeler when cars stacked a mile down 255. The music faded. The place did not.
Mike and Kelly Murphy have kept the grounds since they bought the park from George and Nancy in 1991. The stage, ticket booths, restrooms, concessions, pool, log home, and campground footprint remain.
The offering
Stage, houses, and pine woods — intact from the concert years.
Iconic outdoor stage
The original covered concert stage still stands in a pine clearing — the same boards that held Cash, Willie, Waylon, and the Possum himself.
George Jones’ log home
The two-story pine-log residence George had built in the 1980s, still lived in and preserved on the property.
Turn-key event infrastructure
Ticket booths, restrooms, concession stands, parking fields, and traffic flow from the park’s concert years remain on the grounds.
RV / campground footprint
Campground area across the highway with existing residents, plus former gas station, grocery, and restaurant sites.
Rural East Texas setting
Unrestricted rural character typical of Tyler County recreational land — suited to a venue, estate, resort, or mixed-use destination.
The log home
George had it built from pine. It is still lived in.
The two-story log house was Jones’ residence at the park. Stone later capped the gable. Mike and Kelly Murphy have made it home since 1991. A second brick residence, gardens, and estate lawns sit on the same holding.
“It isn’t about trying to recreate what George did. Nobody could do that. But we’re here. George’s spirit is here.”
Mike Murphy, current owner
