This is your chance to own a diverse 268-acre property within the Spring Creek Co-Op Quality Deer Management Program. Spanning over 20,000 acres, the Spring Creek Co-Op is a voluntary delayed harvest initiative focused on not harvesting bucks before they reach 5.5 years of age, ensuring trophy deer for years to come.
Nestled between productive agricultural fields and the rich bottomlands of Spring Creek, this tract offers an incredible variety of habitats, including upland pine and hardwood stands, field edges, and bottomland. Nine acres of seasonal plantings have been established to provide full-cycle nutrition and support for local wildlife, including a thriving population of deer, hogs, turkey, quail, and rabbit. The property features 0.75 miles of frontage along Spring Creek, with abundant fall mast to attract wildlife.
The land has been carefully managed, with rotational burning to stimulate new growth, and 4,000 Longleaf pines planted in 2022. Known for exceptional deer hunting, the Spring Creek area of Early County consistently produces bucks in the 140-160” range, and this tract is no exception. Power lines along the south side of the property create perfect vantage points for hunts, with sightings of 30+ deer in a single outing. The current owner has harvested several Pope and Young qualifying bucks, and harvest records will be provided to serious buyers.
For the 2023/24 deer season, Early County benefited from an extended archery season lasting until the end of January, with a late rut providing additional opportunities for hunters. If the state continues the extended season, this county will remain one of the few in Georgia with such a long window for hunting. Additionally, under the right purchase terms, there are deeded hunting rights for an adjoining 68-acre agricultural field, expanding the hunting opportunities for both deer and turkey.
Ready for immediate use, the property includes approximately 3-4 acres cleared on the north side, with soil samples and a septic permit secured for building a home or establishing a campsite. A water source has been located for a well, and the local EMC has provided an affordable estimate to run underground power to the site. On-site amenities include a 24’x36′ pole barn to protect equipment and a 20-foot shipping container for secure storage.
This is a truly exceptional property offering a rare mix of hunting, outdoor recreation, and building potential. The seller is willing to divide the land into two tracts as already surveyed or consider other divisions, though no parcel will be sold under 100 acres.
