Stonehouse Ranch
The Best of Nature.
“Stonehouse Ranch consist of approximately 2,350 acres that was preserved from the over 5,000 acre master planned community called Stonehouse. This magnificent property has over 2.6 miles of water frontage along the majestic Ware Creek. The property across Ware Creek to the North is owned by The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, solidifying the peace, tranquility and wildlife along Ware Creek.
The Hunt Club in conjunction with the owners of Stonehouse have formed an informal partnership and have worked together to provide a safe environment for hunting and the management property. This management has helped the deer herd flourish. Management of deer has also help the smaller animals to maintain a proper population, such as woodpeckers, bald eagles, turkeys, ducks, and birds of all species. This property is truly a hunting paradise”.
Stonehouse History
-
In order to record and to preserve the history of the Stonehouse site, there have been extensive historical and archaeological studies on the property. These studies have revealed evidence that prehistoric Indians camped along the creek over 2,000 years ago. Their activity on the property was mostly restricted to establishing temporary hunting camps in pursuit of fish and game. Research has also revealed that the primary activity of the early English settlers on the site was limited to hunting and fishing. In fact, archaeological evidence suggests that, through the years, the Ware Creek basin has remained primarily uninhabited.
One major site, the foundation of the legendary Stonehouse, dating from the 17th century, is the namesake of the development.

In modern times, the Ware Creek area has been primarily used as timberland. Small portions of the land have been timbered and replanted. Presently, most of the land is heavily forested with a mixture of pine and various hardwood trees indigenous to the area. The pictures below represent some of the beauty this place has to offer.
