Being the least "avid" turkey hunter pays off sometimes. I had a great hunt with Tim, the guide. He was as excited as I was an tackled the bird before I could quit crying from holding my gun up for what seemed like 30 minutes and was actually only 5 . . . Anyway, we appreciate all that you do for us!! Looking forward to more business in the future. Be sure that all the guys at the Lodge know how much I appreciate them. Food was great!! Lodge is great!! I had a blast!! Thanks again!!

I've hunted all over the south, but nothing compares to Westervelt Lodge. The property is pristine, the wildlife management is exceptional, and the guides are true professionals. This is where traditions are made and memories last a lifetime.

Our corporate retreat at Westervelt Lodge was transformational. The combination of world-class hunting, fine dining, and meeting facilities created the perfect environment for team building. Our executives are still talking about it months later

Three generations of my family have hunted at Westervelt Lodge. The consistency of excellence over the decades is remarkable. From my grandfather's stories to my grandson's first turkey, this place holds our family's hunting heritage.

The attention to detail at Westervelt Lodge is unmatched. From the moment you arrive, you're treated like family. The guides are passionate about conservation and hunting ethics, making this more than just a hunting trip - it's an education in wildlife stewardship.

I have been hunting at Westervelt for MANY YEARS…Off and On. I can remember my first deer hunt, but cannot remember what year it was? MANY YEARS AGO! BELIEVE IT OR NOT..I CAN ACTUALLY REMEMBER A BUCK I TOOK THAT DAY AND ALL THE CIRCUMSTANCES…YET, I CAN’T REMEMBER WHAT I HAD FOR BREAKFAST YESTERDAY! GO FIGURE!! I have been turkey hunting with you the past 6-7 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY I HAVE EVER SEEN. A TRIBUTE TO “GOD’S MAGNIFICENT CREATION.” I STAND IN AWE! I feel deeply Honored and Privileged that the Good Lord has allowed me to Enjoy what Westervelt has to offer. THANK YOU! GOD BLESS!

Just wanted to take a minute and let you both know how much my dad, John, and I enjoyed our visit to Westervelt last weekend. It was our second trip and a delayed father's day gift...we could not have had a better time...Jay, Benny, and Jeff were excellent hosts and guides. They are always working to make sure you have a wonderful time at the lodge and during your hunt...my father especially enjoyed the ride down to the river and around the different parts of the property. I know that was a lot to ask but it meant the world to him. The cabin we stayed in was absolutely perfect....I think my dad will want to see if we can stay there again in the future...it was just right for our hunt and time together. We are planning to return every year, Lord willing, and I think I have at least a group of 4 or 5 that are very interested in booking a deer hunt, gunhunt, next season....and I bet I could get a small group together for archery as well....bottomline....I'll touch base with ya'll soon about future bookings. Thanks again...truly can't say enough good things…

Folks don’t hold their pinkies aloft when shooting at Westervelt, but they do approach the hunt with grace and treat the birds with dignity." - Quail in the South” Gun Dog Magazine, 2011

Westervelt Lodge is one of the true hidden treasures of the deep south. Sporting history and traditions still exist along the lazy current of the Tombigbee River in west Alabama. Every time I return to Westervelt Lodge, I am greeted by the warmth of the roaring fireplaces and the scents of old-time southern cooking. No doubt this is one of the south's last great hunting properties.

One of the things I like hunting at Alabama Westervelt Lodge is that I know the deer are there. It’s still up to my skill and a bit of luck to bag one." - Rebel Bucks Galore Petersons Hunting, 1977

Westervelt Lodge, as run by the present proprietors, exhibits the best example of multiple use on a tract of land by any corporate landowner in the United States to my knowledge. It has experienced the same thing that happened to game during the period from 1700 to 1800 in North America, except that it is on a far smaller scale and rather than being done by accident, in Westervelt’s case it was done with deliberate intent. - Chapter 4 Payback 2010 - Copyright Tom Kelly Inc.
