Welcome to Bates Branch Farm, a 90-acre sporting property near Girard in Burke County, Georgia, featuring a 45-acre dove field, a 5-acre shared pond, and plenty of deer and turkey. The anchoring features are the 45-acre dove field, currently planted in sunflowers, and a 3-bedroom cabin overlooking the pond, which is great for bream and bass fishing. Historically used for farming, family gatherings, and hunting, this generational property is a versatile retreat in an area well known for farming and for producing quality white-tailed bucks. Gather friends and family on the 45-acre field for a dove shoot, then head to the cabin overlooking the pond for a weekend getaway, hunting quarters, or the post-shoot barbecue. Burke County deer hunting is some of the best in the state, with Georgia Outdoor News ranking it as a "Good Chance for a Wallhanger." Surrounded by agriculture and large timber properties and just a short distance from Brier Creek, the farm sits in big-buck habitat. The upland mixed pine and oak habitat surrounding the dove field holds turkey as well. The terrain gently slopes from the field down to Bates Branch, which serves as the western property boundary. Soils are predominately upland loamy sand with some bottomland along the branch. The 968-square-foot cabin has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a kitchen, and a living room that opens to a porch overlooking the pond, with power, a well, and septic. The farm has a small stretch of frontage on Creek Road, with the majority of its frontage along Glisson Road, a county-maintained dirt road; the primary driveway and a secondary dove field access are both off Glisson Road. Acreage: 45 ac dove field, 40 ac pine/hardwood mix, 3 ac pond, 2 ac utilities. Enrolled in CUVA in 2023; 2025 property taxes were $521.74. About 5 minutes to Girard, 20 minutes to Waynesboro, and 50 minutes to Augusta. Shown by appointment only.
