Welcome to the Marshtown’s upland game hunting.
Our hunting preserve, begun in 2006 is part of the DelMar Waterfowl
LLC which operates a well-known, member’s only 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 old 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.
Should this type of bird hunting appeal to you please feel free to
check us out. 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
offered, but we can credit your deposit toward another date if
available.
Marshtown Office
Upon arrival, you will see the Marshtown Office on you right hand
side past across from the barns. This is where you will meet for the
hunts and fill out any paperwork. Plenty of parking in front and
feel free to wait on the deck or inside. We have extra supplies
available for purchase.
