Guided alligator hunts at Silver Lake Preserve.

Silver Lake Preserve, owned and operated by Lykes Bros. Inc., lies on the outskirts of the town of LaBelle, in southwest Florida’s Glades County. Silver Lake Preserve is an expertly managed 1876-acre tract of old Florida land that served for generations as the Lykes family private quail hunting grounds. Now open to the public, guided hunts for quail, turkey and alligators are conducted with efficient professionalism by guides who know the land like the back of their hand, offering a truly pleasurable experience for those who wish to enjoy the natural beauty of the Florida landscape. We also offer pheasant tower shoots, a wobble deck and shooting range and lodging.
