Description
DREAMLAND PLANTATION
990+/- ACRES
SUMTER COUNTY, ALABAMA
The property has yielded exceptional quality bucks, due to the owners' emphasis on food plots and managing hunting pressure. To that effect, no deer have been harvested outside of any of the twenty food plots found throughout the property by the current owners. All plots have two shooting houses, as a way to enable hunting the plots on multiple winds. As a result of this emphasis on minimizing pressure, day time deer movement is exceptional and the property has a healthy deer density.
Aiding in the landowners' efforts is the quality of the surrounding property owners, the majority being larger parcels. As an example, the property to the east, which lies between Dreamland Plantation and the Tombigbee River, is currently a bow hunting only property. With Dreamland Plantation having rolling topography as well as being very diverse, it is set up to balance timber investment with a first-rate wildlife program.
The property has deeded access and a private, gated entrance. Once in the property, an extensive and well-maintained road system aids the owners in managing all parts of the property. Its remoteness adds to its tranquility, as well as its appeal as a recreational tract. At many points in the property you will feel as if you are in the Appalachian Mountains or other picturesque locales.
A pad has been cleared as a potential cabin or lodge site, and as many as eight potential lake sites are present on the property. A buyer seeking the seclusion needed to escape the hustle and bustle of the world while enjoying exceptional hunting will find Dreamland Plantation the perfect retreat.
The timber is very diverse, featuring rough estimates of 380 acres of merchantable pine plantation, 272 acres of mixed mature pine and hardwood stands, and 330 acres of the cedar, pine, and hardwood mix characteristic of the Black Belt. It is this mix of soils, topography, location, and management that make Dreamland Plantation one of the most exceptional properties for hunting and recreation available in the Deep South.

20 food plots most ranging between 1-2 acres in size
