The Popes were a prominent family in Monticello and currently the world class Hunter Pope Country Club is named from the same family. The early settlers chose to name the town Monticello in honor of President Thomas Jeffersonas Virginia estate. Jasper county is known as the Deer Capital of Georgia. While agriculture has always played an important role in the economy, many of the original farms were sold to the U.S. Government and now make up much of the Oconee National Forest which consist of 867,000 acres of preserved forest. Jasper county is also home to the Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center where you can enjoy biking, bird watching, canoeing, fishing, hiking, hunting, and camping. This property has the best of both worlds being in the city of Monticello and surrounded by hundreds of thousands of undisturbed acres to enjoy year round!
