Property Overview

Tobler Creek Retreat is well-suited for the buyer seeking:

  • Professionally managed timberland property with high volumes of merchantable pine and hardwood
  • Spectacular and clean creek bottomlands with 100+ year old pines and hardwoods
  • Enchanting Tobler Creek on the last miles of its journey to feed the beautiful Flint River
  • Abundant wildlife with trophy potential whitetail deer and turkey
  • Excellent paved road frontage with gated entrances

Location

Tobler Creek Retreat is situated in the upper Flint River Basin, north of the Fall Line that traverses Central Georgia. This region, known as the Georgia Piedmont, stretches from Central Georgia to the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and is celebrated for its rolling topography, small to medium-sized farms, ranches, and highly productive timberland properties.

The area south of Thomaston is particularly notable for its concentration of larger timberland holdings, most of which remain in the hands of the same families for generations. While a handful of smaller mini-farms exist nearby, the surrounding landscape is predominantly composed of larger acreages with long-term, multigenerational ownership. Logtown Road sees very little local traffic, lending the property a sense of privacy and seclusion. At the same time, Logtown Road and the nearby four-lane Highway 19 provide straightforward access from virtually any part of Georgia.

Access

Tobler Creek Retreat enjoys convenient access via paved Logtown Road, just minutes from four-lane US Highway 19. A well-maintained internal road system serves the pine plantations throughout the property and connects to numerous wildlife food plots. Additional access to the creek bottomlands could be easily developed to suit a new owner’s needs. Electric power is available at the Logtown Road entrances, though it has not yet been extended onto the property.

Property Description

Tobler Creek Retreat stands as an outstanding timberland investment, and its productive soils, ample rainfall, solid internal road network, and proximity to multiple pine and hardwood markets ensure it will remain so for years to come. Yet what truly sets this property apart is its remarkable natural beauty.

The gently rolling terrain flows naturally toward the Tobler Creek bottomlands that grace the heart of the property. At this point in its long journey, Tobler Creek resembles a small river, winding its way toward its confluence with Swift Creek and the Flint River just a few miles to the southwest.

With its excellent road frontage and convenient location near Thomaston, the property would also serve beautifully as a residential retreat or recreational escape. Many of the pine plantations have reached an age well suited for a plantation-style harvest, which would create an ideal managed habitat for bobwhite quail. The property has been leased for many years to a small hunting club that has diligently applied Quality Deer Management practices, reflecting the caliber of stewardship this land has received.

Timber Resource

Tobler Creek Retreat contains 322.26 acres of high-quality pine plantations, of which 259.61 acres have reached harvest age. The natural hardwood bottomlands encompass 125.73 acres and are rich with mature timber. The remaining acreage consists of roads, food plots, and a utility pipeline corridor. In total, the property holds nearly 30,000 tons of valuable pine and hardwood timber. Detailed timber volumes by class, derived from recent inventory cruises, are available upon request.
