HillsWhen you arrive at the lake entrance, you'll take a 3.4-mile drive along the east side of the lake to reach the property. Along the way, you'll likely spot plenty of deer, geese, turkeys, and other wildlife. This private lake is popular for fishing, and you'll notice the creative signs residents have on their lake homes and fish camps as you make your way there.
About a quarter mile from the property access gate, the road turns to gravel. Since the surrounding land is mostly commercial timber acreage, wildlife frequently moves onto our property in search of food and a place to rest. The property features over 2 miles of trails, most of which are accessible by Jeep or 4x4. There’s also a primitive campsite, Bravo Camp, with space to park a camper or trailer, along with additional parking just inside the gate. One shoot house/blind is setup and one more is under construction as well as a range to site in your rifle. With the liberal harvesting regulations this property is a perfect opportunity to fill a freezer.
The property has 1,500 feet of frontage along Lake Road (1638), a mix of hardwoods (oak, maple, hickory) and pine. While it’s not directly on the lake, access is through a private, gated lake community, so hunting guests will be let in at the gate and directed to the property. Enjoy your visit, and good luck with your hunt!
This property is a dense, mixed-species forest located at the northeast end of Lake Eddins, bordered by thousands of acres of commercial loblolly timber on the north, east, and south sides. The northern boundary's timber was harvested two years ago. The property features a rye grass meadow on the north side, surrounded by nut-bearing hickory and oak trees, with a shooting house and a deer cleaning/skinning station.
Deer and other game frequently pass through to drink from the small creeks that feed the lake. The thick forest provides excellent cover for deer and turkey, making it ideal for hunting. With 95% of the land forested, most shots will be 100 yards or less, so you can leave your 300 Win Mag at home. Rifle, black powder, shotguns with slugs, crossbows, and compound/recurve bows are all legal and effective for hunting here.
Peak rut typically occurs the 2nd or 3rd week of January which is the coldest month. IF we are going to get some hard freezes, it will be that month. It seldom snows here. The landowner has seen snow on the ground twice in ten years and it lasts for about 24 hours.
Focus your efforts east of the westernmost north-south trail, where trailheads are clearly marked and shown on the property map. The highest point of the property is in the center, with the lowest area—about 20 to 30 feet lower—located in the northeast corner. This area features a seasonal gully and intermittent creek bed that drains eastward into managed timberland.
For hunters who enjoy wild game, the meat from this area has great flavor, and Mississippi offers generous bag limits.
Reservation fees are due at the time of booking and are non-refundable. All OTC hunts will require a 50% deposit of the outdoorsman fee at the time of booking as well. The remaining 50% will process 1 month prior to the hunt.
Cancellations made prior to placing a deposit will be taken care of immediately. Any cancellations needed after placing a deposit will result in attempts to reschedule the hunt for a different season, or a different year. Please note that refunds are not guaranteed.
If there is a lapse in availability, please do not be discouraged to reach out to IO. All calendars are set and managed by landowners, and unavailability is set by them. However, IO is willing to reach out on your behalf, to check on available dates. Other reasons for unavailable dates include biologist recommended hunter/harvest quotas that landowners implement, as well as state season dates not being released.
You are not legally allowed to access the property, for any adventure, prior to your selected access day. If you try to access the property at all before your selected date(s), without prior approval from IO, you will be subject to trespassing and punishments therein
