Location
The
plantation was established in 1843 by Judge James Morton. He prospered
there for 68 years and then the R.N. Bray Company managed it for another
84 years! Today, the plantation stands testament to 165 years of excellent
timber, land and wildlife management and is renowned as a recreational
hunting and aesthetic paradise. Over 2,000 acres (60%) of the plantation
is in native ground cover and natural timber!
Located on the Withlacoochee River on the eastern edge of the famous
Tallahassee/Thomasville quail belt, it is nearby other famous Brooks
County plantations such as Talloakas, Okapilco, Brannville, River Bend,
Pinion Point, Kinderlou Forest, Tamathli, Pinckney Hill, Blackwater,
and Hickory Head.
Just off US Highway 84, it is a convenient drive to
Thomasville and less than 15 minutes to commercial jet service from Valdosta,
the 10th largest city in Georgia with all the benefits of the I-75 Corridor.
The famous 1850’s Greek Revival house makes this one of the few
original plantations in existence. This plantation’s access to
amenities, infrastructure, river frontage and historical assets gives
it enormous higher and better use potential.
This river-front plantation is one of the finest hunting plantations on the market today.
