Towns, terrain and land across Stephens County

The mix of town lots in Martin and rural acreage beyond makes the Stephens County parcel map useful for house hunters and land buyers alike. Watch how parcels line up along Lake Hartwell; waterfront tracts often have odd shapes because the deed follows the water. Look for Chattahoochee National Forest on the map; the private tracts touching it are some of the most asked-about parcels in Stephens County.
Private and public hunting ground in Stephens County
Getting on private ground in Stephens County is about relationships, and those start with the owner name on the parcel record. Public options include Chattahoochee National Forest; check the boundaries carefully, because private inholdings and neighboring tracts aren't open to the public. Check the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division for public hunting areas and current regulations before you hunt near Martin. A landowner near Eastanollee is more likely to say yes to a hunter who names the exact parcel and offers a phone number.
