Welcome!!!
Welcome
to the Marshtown’s upland game hunting preserve. Our upland hunting
preserve, begun in 2006 is part of a well-known waterfowl club that
consists of approximately 14,000 acres of leased hunting property in
Delaware and Maryland.
The hunting preserve is located an hours drive from New Jersey,
Maryland and Pennsylvania in Dover Delaware. We are right off Route
One along Route Eight.
The intent of the game preserve is to provide the upland game hunter
an environment that is as natural and non-commercial as possible.
Our goal is to create a safe, friendly operation that your hunting
party and your dog will enjoy. You will be challenged by the
combination of natural and cultivated cover. There are open fields,
brushy areas, wooded sections, and large cultivated food plots for
the birds to seek food and shelter.
In keeping with the concept of offering a friendly hunting
experience, we have a great clubhouse. You and you party can
gather together for an early cup of coffee or recount the days hunt
and will be pretty much on your own. Please see the Upland clubhouse
page for more details.
You may hunt over your own dog or hire one of our
guides with his own dog.
Delmar operates several fields in the area, and only one party will
be allowed to hunt on each property at a time. Each party will have
a large field to themselves with approximately 40 acres of cover.
Details of the fields are provided on a separate page.
Delaware does not require a license fee for released birds. We are
now accepting reservations and would suggest that you book early to
assure that dates are available. A 50 percent (50%) deposit for each
days hunt is required to confirm your reservations. Please make
reservations at least
48 hours in advance.

At Least 24 Hour Notice for Cancellations. No refunds will be

Marshtown Office
The Marshtown office is on the right hand side of Edgewater Farm
Lane at the second gravel driveway. The Inn and the office are the
only two buildings on Edgewater Farm Lane. The office is situated at
the end of the second (loop) gravel drive, in the horse barn.
This is where all hunts will begin and end. Plenty of parking on
site and shotshells are available for purchase if needed as well as
rental shotguns..
