THE HISTORY OF SOUTHWIND PLANTATION

Over the last sixteen years, as the business has grown, SouthWind Plantation has acquired several additional tracks of land and expanded its hunting operation to also include cattle production, row crop farming, and quality hunting puppies available for purchase. In 2015, SouthWind Plantation built a state-of-the-art puppy-birthing kennel and is honored to be one of the country’s select few kennels to be recognized as an Orvis Endorsed Dog Breeder. What began as one hundred seventy acres has now grown to over six thousand one hundred acres of rolling hills and long-leaf pine creating perfect conditions for the avid bird hunter. Currently, SouthWind Plantation offers ten uniquely furnished state-of-the-art lodges that accommodate sixty-five guests comfortably. In addition to these services, we have recently completed Smith Station, our 11,000 square foot multi-purpose corporate facility, which is available year round. We have worked hard in growing our wildlife habitat for the filling purpose behind quail which is our native bird to this area.

 In the last two years, we have added 1,100 acres of pristine woodlands for your next eastern gobbler, trophy whitetail and corporate outing for a dive hunt. Although we take great pride in our recognition as one of the world’s finest Orvis Endorsed Wing-Shooting destinations, we are more honored by the lasting relationships that have been built with many of our guests who have become part of our “SouthWind Family”. It has been amazing to see many of the same faces return each year for another memorable hunting experience. Owner, Tim Smith, believes the relationships we have built with our customers, making them feel “at home,” separates SouthWind from other commercial hunting plantations. SouthWind Plantation would like to invite you and your family to become part of our “SouthWind Family”. So, book your “ultimate hunting experience” at SouthWind today!
