Alabama's Whetstone Plantation

Founded in the late 17th century and located in Autauga County, Alabama, Whetstone Plantation is a historic Southern hunting property deeply rooted in tradition, conservation, and land stewardship. Known as “The Land of Legends,” the plantation has evolved over generations from a productive cotton operation into one of Alabama’s premier managed hunting destinations. The beautiful acreage that makes up Whetstone Plantation consists of a balanced mix of croplands, pasture, and mature timberlands that provide exceptional habitat for wildlife. With abundant natural forage including acorns and honeysuckle, combined with carefully managed food plots of corn, wheat, oats, and clover, the plantation supports a thriving game population. Intensive wildlife management practices and supplemental feed and mineral programs have helped cultivate outstanding hunting opportunities across the property. Whetstone Plantation offers both guided and self-guided deer and turkey hunts, giving hunters the flexibility to choose the experience that best fits their style. Whether guests are looking for a fully guided Southern hunt or prefer the independence of hunting quality managed land on their own, the plantation provides exceptional opportunities and well-managed game populations. To maintain a high-quality experience, Whetstone Plantation limits hunting pressure to just 8–10 guests per day, ensuring each hunter receives a more personalized and productive hunt. Guests can expect well-managed land, rich Southern history, and a professional operation focused on creating memorable experiences in the field. Today, Whetstone Plantation continues the legacy established centuries ago by the Whetstone family, combining hard work, conservation, and respect for the land to provide hunters with an authentic Alabama hunting experience unlike any other.
