Flynn Hunting & Timber Property in Lee County GA Listing Details & Market Data

Lee CountyThe aesthetic Flynn Farm is a prime hunting property and gentleman’s farm in highly sought after Lee County GA. It is located near the Flint River, and adjacent to the famed Senah Plantation in southeast Lee. Consisting mostly of fire-maintained mature longleaf and slash pines interspersed with pockets of cypress and pine bottoms together with pockets of upland oaks, the Flynn Farm is unquestionably one of Lee County’s finest hunting properties under 500 acres. The intensive deer and wild quail management has resulted in a pure wildlife haven. The deer herd has been on a constant protein feeding program since 2017, and the wild quail are regularly fed via a network of feed trails throughout the property. The early successional understory habitat on this property is perhaps one of the must lush and diverse understories found in southwest Georgia, and the deer, quail, and turkey flourish with abundant forage and cover. Improvements include a new enclosed and wired barn/storage building that could be converted to a bunkhouse, a new pole barn, a new well, a restored antique hand pump well, a road and trail network, and power. The presence of mature longleaf and wiregrass, cypress ponds, gopher tortoises, plus residential development pressure in southern Lee County makes the Flynn Farm an ideal candidate for a permanent conservation easement or the Wetlands Reserve Program. The property is NOT under a conservation easement or a conservation use assessment, so residential development is a viable option. Underneath the mature pine are two-year-old longleaf planted primarily in natural openings and areas of lighter stocking. In addition to the mature timber, there is 45 acres of 1999 Planted Slash Pine ready for a 2nd thinning when you are, and numerous wildlife openings and food plots throughout the property. There are approximately 9 openings across the property totaling 9 acres and ranging in size from 0.2 acres to 2.7 acres. The openings are a mix of native weeds for quail brood habitat, planted fields for deer and quail, and wild openings for cover and miscellaneous wildlife habitat. The largest field along the north property line has been successfully planted in the past for dove hunting. The owner has also enjoyed some successful duck hunting on the property, specifically in the cypress bottom along the west property line. The deer hunting pressure is very low, as the owner is primarily a quail hunter. The deer protein feeding program has been hugely successful, as evidenced by the countless past and current trail camera photos. There is a sustained and healthy population of wild quail, as well as turkey. A typical quail hunt on the property on foot is a two-hour hunt, and 2 to 8 wild coveys per hunt is the norm. The owner typically hunts quail roughly every 10 days throughout the season.
