Several small ponds make great watering holes for the wildlife, and a 4+/- acre stocked lake is managed by Southeastern Pond Management, which allows for year around recreational fun for you and your family. There are 27 food plots ranging in size from -1/4 acre to 6 acres. Ten shooting houses and numerous ground blinds are remaining.
