Income-Producing Longleaf Pine - 93± acres generate approximately $19,000 annually in pine straw income Offered for the first time after four generations of family ownership, at Ease Farm is 254± acres of South Georgia recreational and farm country in Irwin County. A pond, Satilla Creek frontage, productive Longleaf stands, and a barndominium, the property combines recreation, income, improvements, and real privacy on one place. The land is diverse and well suited for year-round enjoyment. Approximately 182 acres are in planted Longleaf and Loblolly pine, complemented by natural hardwoods, regenerating timber, water, and gently rolling terrain. A lake totaling approximately 5 acres create attractive focal points within the property, while Satilla Creek frontage and associated hardwood areas add another layer of wildlife habitat and recreational appeal. The varied landscape creates wildlife habitat and the diversity, and scale buyers seek in a quality South Georgia recreational property. This is one of those rare properties that has been in a single family for so long - This farm has not been hunted hard in who knows how long - no trail camera surveys, no protein program, no food plots on rotation. So the wildlife that walks these pines today was produced by Longleaf cover, introduced northern genetics, a clean creek bottom, no hog competition, and no pressure, while the neighbors let them grow the entire time. The opportunity: Nobody has ever managed this place to its ceiling. A buyer can thin the merchantable Longleaf, open the old plots, and build recreation and wealth at the same time - on habitat, genetics, and infrastructure that are already here. The upside is one will create wealth while having fun doing it. Making it your family's legacy. Wildlife & Hunting: The property has Deer, turkey, quail, and wood ducks. The west side drops into Satilla Creek where it feeds toward the Satilla River - thick, wet, and exactly where the mature bucks live. "The big bucks loved the swamp areas. Growing up, I always used to call the big deer swamp donkeys. The turkeys love to roost back there - it's not uncommon to hear them gobbling and echo through the bottoms." - John Benoit, son of fourth-generation owner Then there is the thing that separates this farm from nearly every other creek-bottom tract in South Georgia. "There's no wild pigs on this property or around this area that I'm aware of. When you think of a swamp bottom of a creek across the state, you're gonna assume, well, you got a lot of pigs. But I can say there's no wild pigs here." - John Benoit The deer herd carries introduced northern genetics from a release made at the entrance of this property decades ago, when Wisconsin deer were brought south. That genetic is still here, in a neighborhood of hunters who have grown to appreciate mature deer. "It's not gonna be uncommon to kill a buck on average 130-inch class. Deer love to navigate through the pine trees. We have a lot of good bedding areas, and these roads are great transitions between hardwoods or wet areas and good cover." - John Benoit, on the family's experience hunting the farm What makes that number hold is who owns the ground around you. "All the landowners around, everybody kinda has the same mentality - let them go, let them grow. You're not gonna have to worry about passing a deer for it to step over the property line and hear a gunshot moments later." - John Benoit Spring is every bit as strong. On an ordinary morning the family expects six different gobblers working from separate directions, birds roosting in the creek bottom and answering across the pines. Wood ducks trade over the cabin at last light and drop in on the east side of the pond. Quail and rabbits are thick in the young regeneration where the 2020 cut came back.
