It's been said that water is the new gold and this property is wealthy with flowing water on about every side. With 3.5 miles of river frontage, this property blends high-quality recreation with the refined lifestyle of Georgias Piedmont Region. It is located where the Apalachee River and Hard Labor Creek converge to form Lake Oconee itself. The fishing here is superb from the white bass running up from the lake to spawn here, shell crackers, crappie, bass, redbreast bream, catfish, and others. It's less than a mile boat ride to the main portion of Lake Oconee itself.

The property is not only a bow hunters and fishermans paradise but it's beautiful! This is Georgias Piedmont region, where a large ridge of fertile farm soils runs through the property, creating dramatic 100-foot elevation changes leading down to the rivers. Historically, the 560-foot high ridge top was farmed. In fact, it actually has 515 acres of prime farm soils. Today, its purpose is raising wildlife and family recreation.

Eventually, area family farmsteads of the past were sold and then assembled into the vast timber empire of Weyerhaeuser. This higher and better use property was groomed not for timber production but for aesthetics and recreation. In fact, it was so valuable and the location so prime that back around 2006 Weyerhaeuser built a 30+/- large lot luxury community called Rivers Edge at Apalachee. This property was set aside to be Phase 2. In fact, some of the HOA amenities such as the paved boat ramp and others are a key benefit to this land. Today, all the neighbors to the north are million-dollar+ homes, and it is one of the finest residential communities in Middle Georgia.

It shares 1.65 +/- mile border with the 37,500-acre Redlands Wildlife Management Area as the direct neighbor across the Apalachee River. Across Hard Labor Creek, the neighbors average around 200+ acres each. This place has wild game. In fact, even on the WMA 140-inch B&C Whitetails have been harvested solidifying the region's reputation as a premier area for some of Georgias largest Whitetails.

With its stunning natural beauty, exceptional year-round recreational offerings, and close proximity to Georgias finest lakefront communities, Apalachee Ridge Acres is a rare opportunity to own a high-quality recreational tract in the heart of the Lake Oconee resort district.
