Returned from my second visit to Almost Heaven and it was my first time hunting. The first time I was there to fish which is an unmatched experience. The fishing lake is the best private lake I have ever fished. This time I was concerned as the weather conditions included rain for the entire trip. The guide told me not to worry as some of their best hunts occur in the rain. He was not wrong. Great covey flushes and the birds flew great. We flushed almost 20 coveys that all had at least 20 birds in them. The accommodations are very nicely decorated and yet at the same time are very comfortable. Highly recommend a visit to Almost Heaven.
We had the most amazing time at Almost Heaven Plantation. Not only did we catch an astronomical amount of bass, but we also experienced true Southern hospitality. Everyone was kind and made sure our stay was great. The lodge was gorgeous, our room warm and welcoming, and the scenery was beyond anything we expected. Thank you for an amazing and memorable time!
Almost Heaven is the perfect name for our friendly neighbors. You drive in a long, winding road and come to their fantastic gathering shed with everything a hunter could want. The hunting and fishing facilities are the best in this area, and the Boat House is stocked with bait and equipment. The Inn has several themed rooms, each decorated to the nines. Between the hunting, fishing, and hospitality, Almost Heaven is pretty much Heaven on Earth!
Spring Island has been with Almost Heaven’s Hunt Master, Scott Keown, for over 10 years across four different plantations in the Lowcountry. Almost Heaven Plantation is by far the best. The quail course habitat is perfect for the birds and makes for sporty shooting. Spring Island has 65 hunters and booked more than 170 hunts in 2020.
Almost Heaven has it all. Well-maintained quail habitat with great guides and dogs, plus a 40-acre dove field that’s a magnet for birds. Every detail adds up to an incredible hunting experience.
