3,650 Acres in St. Clair County, Pell City, Alabama
Property Description
In the heart of Alabama, nestled just 35 miles from Birmingham, lies a land people can only dream of. This is Triple Creek - a plantation that stands as a true testament to the timeless allure of the Southern sporting tradition. Spanning 3,650 acres of rolling hills and vast wildlife, Triple Creek is not just a place; it’s a living legend.From the architecture of the land to the thoughtfully designed habitat, roads, and ponds. Every inch of Triple Creek was mapped out with the outdoor experience in mind, and more importantly, for sharing that experience with others.Over 1500+/- acres of meticulously managed quail habitat, where an average of one bird per acre thrives. This remarkable density places Triple Creek among one of the top three quail plantations in Alabama. Beyond quail, the rest of the property is dedicated to trophy whitetail deer and turkey, making it a haven for hunters of all pursuits.The initial problem with the dream was that there wasn’t a wild bobwhite quail in the entire county. In 2019, Kevin took the first step towards that dream. Partnering with Tall Timbers and other experts, he embarked on one of the most ambitious quail translocation projects the South had ever seen. Wild quail were brought in from Georgia, and the work began. As of the last count, the 1500 acres of wild bird habitat has an estimated .9 birds per acre which places it among the top wild bird properties in Alabama and one of the most respected in the South.This entire transformation has been well documented with extensive records on Spring and Fall quail counts, prescribed burns, herbicide treatments, and it even boasts a telemetry-based trapping system. There are 8 wild quail courses and 24 miles of feedline with feeding every other week. To say no expense was spared is an understatement. It is regarded as one of the most successful quail translocation projects in the South and is a testament on how following the science-based recommendations of Tall Timbers can take a property with zero quail and turn it into one of the top wing-shooting properties in America.The property has incredible terrain and fertile soil. In fact, the ground cover here is very similar to what we see in the highly productive Red Hills Plantation Belt. Although the current landowner does not focus on trophy whitetail deer they are here, and the age and genetics are exceptional. The hardwoods, creeks, draws, and open areas are exceptional Deer and turkey habitat throughout all 3,650 acres.There is a beautiful rolling topography with 800-to-500-foot elevation changes.The balance of the property is based on three main creek bottoms, thus the name, “Triple Creek”. There are 4.9 miles of creeks—Wolf Creek, Hearthstone Creek, and Turkey Branch—along with 7.9 miles of smaller creeks. The creek bottoms look like something out of a national park with clear flowing water, rolling topography, massive ancient hardwoods, white oak, and exceptional deer and turkey habitat.This is a year-round property, with three intensively managed fishing ponds including…
