South Carolina SC Hunting Lodge Hunting Lodging Camping

Cedar Knoll Hunting Lodge offers South Carolina's best trophy white-tailed deer, wild boar and bobwhite quail hunting.

Hunt trophy deer, wild boar and bobwhite quail in the South Carolina Low Country with Hayward and Dona Simmons on Lakeview Plantation, the home of the Cedar Knoll® Hunting Lodge since 1985. Enjoy their warm Southern hospitality and an opportunity to relax in total privacy. Book the Cedar Knoll® Hunting Lodge exclusively for you and your clients, friends or family or come as a member of a smaller group and join in on the fun with other hunters.

Since 1985, Lakeview Plantation has evolved into one of the most intensively managed hunting properties in the Southeast, with a broad based habitat management program and an unlimited supplemental feeding program designed to enhance all types of wildlife, especially white-tailed deer, wild boar and bobwhite quail

In addition, guests are the beneficiaries of the owners' vast experience acquired over a 23 year span as owner/operators of the Cedar Knoll® Hunting Lodge including the following:

-The accumulative harvest of over 6,800 deer, 900 wild hogs and thousands of quail since 1985.

- Research projects with Clemson University, the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, the University of Georgia, and the Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study.

- An association with Charles Ruth, who is now the Deer/Turkey Project Leader with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources. In 1988, Charles did his Master’s Thesis on the management approach that Hayward implemented on Lakeview Plantation in 1985 in comparison to other approaches that were being employed across the country. Charles then became the wildlife biologist at the Cedar Knoll® Hunting Lodge from 1989 through 1995 before going to work with DNR as the Deer Project Leader.

- An opportunity to hunt in what has been described by wildlife biologists, because of its diversity, as "the best wildlife habitat in the world”.
