WHO ARE WE
-

Frank and Jane Brown
OWNER
Otter Creek Farmstead is the vision of native Alabamians, Frank and Jane Brown. After being totally destroyed by the storms of 2011, they rebuilt the property in 2013 as a premier wing-shooting destination. They began entertaining private hunting parties during the 2016-2017 quail season and their hunting operations have grown consistently since then. In their free time, Frank and Jane enjoy traveling, hunting and fishing together and love the outdoors. Frank’s true passion is quail hunting, and Jane is a talented artist. They enjoy the art of hospitality and entertainment, and take great pride in making all of their guests feel right at home at Otter Creek.
