Where can you follow the dogs either from horseback or a classic mule-drawn wagon?
Where can you have your very own private lodge with your OWN personal staff?
Where do the birds flush as wild today as they did in the Golden Days of Vintage Southern Quail Hunting?
And where can you find all this in ONE place… as timeless today as you would have imagined it to be 100 years ago?

Only at Pine Hill Plantation!!!

Pine Hill Plantation is the only quail hunting plantation that is both Orvis Endorsed and Beretta Trident certified and provides authentic bobwhite quail hunting exclusively from horseback and mule-drawn wagon. Pine Hill Plantation is one of only 2 lodges in the world to be both Beretta endorsed and to have won the Orvis Lodge of the Year Award.

Experience Georgia quail hunting as it has been done on most of the private plantations for over 150 years. If quail hunting is anything, it is driven by tradition. And for those who believe in traditions, there is only one way to hunt quail… from horseback and mule-drawn wagon. Quail hunting from horseback is as deeply imbedded in the southern plantation psyche as grits and cornbread, and the mule-drawn wagon is an iconic symbol of the grand plantation quail hunting social experience.

Located in deep in the heart of south Georgia quail country, we provide our guests with an authentic experience that does justice to the history and tradition. At Pine Hill Plantation we manage over 6000 acres of longleaf pine forest with wiregrass understory… the original quail habitat as it was more than 200 years ago. These forests are some of the finest habitat in all of south Georgia and they are native home to hard-flying wild quail that have to be hunted and are not merely shot.

When groups of friends and guests go out for the day in search of quail, there is a lot of ground to cover – the need for fresh dogs, lunch in the field, refreshments – all of which is traditionally borne by horse and mule. Though it may be far more expedient these days to substitute the internal combustion engine, there is something ethereal about the long horseback procession moving slowly through the stands of longleaf pine, the huntmaster in the lead watching for the point, and the big mule-drawn wagon jangling along behind, with fresh dogs in the wagon’s dog boxes and the more comfort-minded plantation guests enjoying the social aspects of the hunt from the padded wagon seats.

The quail hunting at Pine Hill Plantation is a true wild bird experience. Extensive work is done to optimize quail habitat on the over 6000 acres of longleaf pine habitat with wiregrass understory and interspersed with crop fields. Because we release young birds in late summer to supplement the wild quail population, these birds have time to become assimilated into the wild quail population during the fall shuffle. Thus, the quail flushed at Pine Hill Plantation fly like bobwhites should, with explosiveness and speed. Sometimes the quail are out moving and easy to find, other times they are shy and aloof. But, they are there… and when they flush with lightning speed, it brings an excitement and challenge that reminds you of why you love this wingshooting sport!

For quail hunters, the pursuit of a revered little bird permeates every aspect of the lifestyle of those who pursue it. Pine Hill Plantation preserves that lifestyle with no compromise. Short of owning your own plantation or being invited to a private plantation, there are few places where quail hunters can experience the lifestyle that has enthralled wingshooters for two centuries. With its hospitality, genteel de’cor, and traditional horseback and mule-drawn wagon hunt, Pine Hill Plantation is south Georgia’s finest quail hunting destination.

Quail hunting parties are normally 4 shooters per wagon hunt-party to provide personal attention and to gear the bird hunt to your desires. Three experienced guides (a huntmaster, a dog handler and wagon driver) will accompany your party and work our proven pointers, setters and retrievers to help you find the quail. A dog kennel of over seventy pointing dogs with exceptional bloodlines will earn your respect as they run their courses. The Labs and Cockers off the wagon will flush covies and retrieve the quail from where you drop them.

At Pine Hill Plantation we live the traditions of authentic south Georgia plantation quail hunting… and so can you. Come experience Pine Hill Plantation!!!

Each year, Orvis honors one of their endorsed wingshooting lodges for consistently delivering an exemplary hunting experience. The Orvis endorsement already represents the best of the best, so this award is truly a distinction. At Rio Piedra Plantation, we’re honored to say that we’ve not only won this award once, we’ve won it three times.

Georgia Quail Hunting in the Plantation Belt

Rio Piedra Plantation has become world renowned for superb Georgia quail hunts, excellent cuisine and fantastic accommodations. No other quail hunting plantation does it quite the same. And, most certainly, no one does it better.

The unspoiled landscape- Long Leaf pine forests and majestic live oaks draped with Spanish moss along the Flint River- revives the essence of traditional South Georgia quail hunting first seen in the 1800’s. Experienced guides, remarkable dogs and hard flying birds bring this history and tradition to life in an unparalleled hunting experience. After the hunt, our attentive staff demonstrate what Southern hospitality means and why our guests often say Rio Piedra Plantation feels like home compared to other Georgia quail plantations.

Good Georgia quail hunting is why everyone chooses to come to this hunting plantation for the first time. Great hunting, excellent dining and fantastic accommodations are why over 90% come back year after year.

Learn more in the Shooting Sportsman article, The Business of Bobwhites , and why Rio Piedra ranks at the top of the list among Georgia hunting plantations.

An Unparalleled Georgia Quail Hunting Experience

Rio Piedra offers an unparalleled quail hunting experience for three simple, yet unique, reasons. First, Rio Piedra is located in the geographic heart of the Plantation Belt, thus ensuring an abundance of quail derived from the short, but active, flight patterns between other quail hunting plantations in South Georgia.

Second, our decades old commitment to habitat restoration and conservation has allowed game populations to thrive. Rio Piedra, along with surrounding private Georgia quail plantations, has restored the Long Leaf pine forests last seen over a hundred years ago. Unlike the dense canopies of live oaks and other hardwoods, longleaf pines allow some sunlight to reach the forest floor and thus ensure an abundance of thick ground cover. It’s this cover, wiregrass and broomsedge, that provides both the protection and food sources quail need to flourish. Ultimately, this quintessential habitat enables elevated quail populations and has led many to believe the heydays of bobwhite hunting are no longer in the past, but are now.

Finally, our experienced guides strive to make every hunt memorable and safe. They, along with some of the best pointers, setters and English Cockers in the business, will ensure abundant shooting opportunities that challenge even the most veteran of hunters.

Dining & Accommodations

Five star dining & accommodations at a georgia quail hunting lodge.

Knowing that a great Georgia quail hunt is about more than just great hunting, we strive to create an atmosphere that completes the experience. Whether you’re having hors d’oeuvres and socializing with fellow hunters in the great room or connecting with old friends over cocktails by one of the many fireplaces, it will become clear Rio Piedra is unlike other Georgia quail hunting plantations. Cuisine prepared by our classically trained European chef, well appointed accommodations and an attentive staff focused on making you feel at home are some of the many reasons why Rio Piedra Plantation is an award winning South Georgia quail destination.

Experience the best-of-the-best in Georgia quail hunting

Come to Rio Piedra Plantation , and you’ll find a Georgia quail hunting lodge that fuses tradition and modern amenities perfectly. With plentiful quail, exceptional cuisine, and a knowledgeable staff, we promise that your stay at Rio Piedra Plantation will be unforgettable.
