Property Detail:
What’s your pleasure? Quail, Ducks, Deer, Turkey, Dove or just watch the Bald Eagles and enjoy the tranquility of the great outdoors! Ivey Springs Plantation can be your paradise!
Ivey Springs Plantation is located on the upper Coastal plains just a short ride SW of Augusta, Georgia, home of the Masters. This is truly a recreational and sportsman’s paradise with incredible diversity and wildlife. The 1,584 spacious acres has been under intensive management for bow hunting whitetail deer for the last 15 years with virtually no hunting pressure. Many exciting celebrity hunts have been filmed on the property sporting an abundance of 140 to 150-class bucks. The professionally managed year round game fields, abundance of natural forage and mast producing trees of wild pears, crab apples, oaks, wild persimmons, Japanese persimmons, scuppernongs, plums, and more provide a variety of high protein foods that have produced many monster bucks.
We have manicuring a portion of the upland pines for several Bobwhite Quail courses. These courses have been planted with sorghum, millet and peas which provide cover and food as well as access through the pine stands for hunting. Ivey Springs sports a small wild bird population that can be expanded on with the proper management. With out a doubt, we can have a very productive release bird program encompassing approximately 500 acres. Several larger openings along these roads and trails are also utilized for various quail foods. There is good cover, an abundance of water and predator control has not been a big issue but addressed. A burning program is in place that will further enhance the habitat for the quail. If a released bird program was implemented, this plan will certainly be one of the final touches to Ivey Springs to help make this plantation one of the finest recreational or income producing properties anywhere.
Ivey Springs has over 3 miles of Rocky Comfort Creek frontage sporting excellent freshwater fishing and an abundance of waterfowl. A floodable duck pond with controlled water level accommodates excellent waterfowl habitat. We also have several other areas that are excellent roost for the variety of ducks on the property. These ponds compliment the existing creeks, sloughs and natural habitat that support a sizable population of Wood Ducks and Mallards and a few other species from time to time.
The property also sports excellent populations of turkey, wild boar, and other small game. One guest harvested 3 gobblers one brisk morning with a near state-record gobbler with 6 beards. The burning program mentioned earlier has certainly had a positive effect on the turkey population and the deer love the high protein browse as well. Last but not least, there have been some mighty fine dove shoots in the dove field by the entrance to Ivey Springs. Access within the tract is excellent consisting of a maze of roads and trails meandering through the varied terrain of upland pines and hardwoods, huge hardwood bottoms, and numerous creeks, streams, and ponds.
The finishing touch is a stunning Southern-style 4 bed, 3 ½ baths, 4,650 sq ft lakefront home with hardwood floors, vaulted ceiling and spacious kitchen. The home is situated at the end of a winding drive, resting on the banks of 2 lakes commonly guarded by bald eagles. The 5 acre & 2 acre lakes are loaded with bream, bass, and catfish. Flocks of turkey and deer frequently browse in the yard. The great room with a vaulted ceiling and fireplace is an excellent place to display your trophies. You will look a long time before you find another property with this degree of diversity and professionally managed habitat and wildlife. Ivey Springs is a very rare find, perfect for a private residence, corporate hideaway or commercial hunting operation.
