History of the Riverview Plantation

Riverview Plantation has been home to the Cox family for six generations.


Over the years, this rich land location along Georgia’s Flint River, has been renowned as the “Quail Capital of the World.” It has yielded cotton, peanuts, tobacco, pecans and grains, and has been a haven for wild game, fish and birds. For decades, as soon as cool autumn air replaced the sultry heat of summer, we– joined by invited friends and eager dogs– pursued bobwhite quail through thousands of acres. In 1957, we began opening our lands to an exclusive clientele of sportsmen. Today, our focus is on the development of our substantial quail habitat and management of our lodge and guest cottages, along with forest products, vegetables, peanuts, pecans and grains. Over the years, our philosophy remains untouched: preserve the grand tradition of the hunt. At Riverview Plantation, refined sportsmen seek the challenge of bagging the game bird of the aristocracy: the bobwhite quail. Understated elegance complements the beauty of the natural world…and hospitality is a revered tradition.
