Overview

This Breathtaking Waterfront Recreational Property was once Babe Ruth's Offseason Hunting and Fishing Retreat - along with many other Prominent Figures in Baseball History. The incarnation of the tradition we know as Major League Baseball's Spring Training has its roots in the Golden Isles of Glynn County. Located in the Golden Isles of Coastal Georgia, this recreational waterfront haven boasts 6.5 Miles of waterfront connecting to the Atlantic Ocean through the Turtle River and Green Creek Waterways. Its the Best of Both Worlds: Fishing and Hunting luxury waterfront lots that are private, yet four miles from I-95, one hour from Jacksonville, one hour from Savannah, and 25 Minutes from St. Simons Island and Sea Island, Georgia. Dover Hall is Heaven on Earth with two larger adjoining waterfront lots totaling 200+/- acres: 103+/- acres of that in buildable uplands and open for waterfront development potential. Abundant wildlife: wild quail, deer, turkey, dove, and incredible boating and fishing. Underground power, six large buildable waterfront lots, and deep water access are all protected by approx. 1, 558+/- acres of recreational timber and hunting land in a conservation-friendly easement with hunting and timber management rights. Located in the Heart of the Golden Isles of Coastal Georgia; Cabbage Bluff and Dover Hall Plantation is a 1, 869 +/- acre waterfront recreational tract that checks all of the boxes for any sportsman. Meticulously planned out over 25 years by Joe McDonough - a passionate conservationist and local land steward - Cabbage Bluff and Dover Hall Plantation offers the best of both worlds with easy access to hunting, as well as in-shore and off-shore fishing. Joe grew up on these local salt marshes and has a heart for conserving coastal Georgia habitats and their natural beauty. His father was a local forester, so he learned at an early age a reverence for the land. With a Chemistry Degree from his beloved University of Georgia and an extensive background in development in the Golden Isles area, Joe has created a tract that falls in a category of its own. It perfectly captures the magic of Coastal Georgia and its diverse habitats. It features six and a half miles of water frontage which flows through the Turtle and Brunswick Rivers and out past St. Simon's Sound to the Atlantic Ocean. Over 1, 558 +/- acres of recreational timberland are under a unique Conservation Easement that provides the outdoor sportsman the ability to hunt quail, deer, dove, turkey, or hogs in the morning, and in the afternoons, fish for Reds, Trout, and Flounder in the tributaries or Mackerel, Tarpon, Cobia, Wahoo, Mahi or Sail Fish further off-shore. In fact, after putting this property under the existing Conservation Easement, Joe and his business partner, Paul Martin, received a complimentary letter from Spud Woodward (who was at the time, the Director for the Southern End of the Department of Natural Resources for the State of Georgia). He proclaimed that this Conservation Easement could very well have saved the entire St. Simons - Jekyll Island Estuaries. Dover Hall is the Last 3, 000 acres of a 10, 000-acre block of land that Joe and Paul purchased together. Dover Hall can be purchased as one 1, 869+/- acre transaction or has the potential to be divided into 10 different parcels; 6 with hunting, timberland and buildable waterfront homesite lots, and 3 large acreage building lots (A, B and D) with waterfront and development potential. The Conservation Easement plan allows for approximately 1, 558+/- acres to remain as hunting and recreational land and is also accompanied by an existing Timber Management Plan. These large recreational hunting/timber tracts (ranging from 50 to 400 acres) provide great habitat for wildlife, and privacy for landowners, as well as buildable waterfront upland lots. Carved out of the Conservation Easement, these lots create breathtaking waterfront homesites with the ability to build private docks and enjoy every am
