We now have approximately 5,500 acres of hunting properties covering 4 counties of middle Georgia (Johnson, Washington, Laurens and Wilkinson).  We use our Plotmaster Plot Planting Machines to plant year-round food plots throughout our properties.  Last year, we planted over 150 acres of wildlife food plots and we provided over 150,000 pounds of supplemental feed (corn, protein pellets and peanut butter) to enhance both the quality and quantity of wild game on our properties.   Blaine Burley, the owner of Woods-N-Water, Inc., is an experienced land manager, wildlife management/hunting property consultant and big game hunter with over 35 years of experience. He has also harvested numerous trophy whitetail deer and other big game animals throughout North America. During his many years in the field, he has gained valuable knowledge and experience in managing hunting/fishing properties and locating/harvesting big game animals. Woods-N-Water Lodge has cabin sleeps 12 (3 rooms of 4) hunters. However, we only book it for 10 if there are multiple groups in the cabin. Each bedroom has 2 bunk beds that are either twin over double or twin over twin. The Lodge has 2 full baths, a living room with satellite TV, dining room, full kitchen and a laundry/locker area.
