The county features rolling hills with oak and pine forests interspersed among agricultural valleys and Lake Eufaula along the eastern border. Creek valleys and river bottoms provide fertile soil between forested ridges and uplands.

Cattle ranching utilizes improved pastures and forest grazing with coastal bermuda grass predominant on cleared land. Hay production serves local livestock operations while timber harvesting provides additional income from forested acreage.
