Possum Poke, American Craftsman house in Poulan, Georgia, US.
Possum Poke features two main buildings, Big Poke and Little Poke, set on 15 acres of land along Possum Lane off U.S. Route 82.
The property served as the winter residence of Michigan Governor Chase Osborn until his death in 1949, receiving National Register of Historic Places status in 1982.
Stone monuments and boulders from Hiawatha National Forest mark the property, commemorating Chase Osborn and his wife Stellanova, reflecting connections between Michigan and Georgia.
The Sylvester-Worth County Chamber of Commerce manages the property, making it available for public visits and special event rentals throughout the year.
Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College acquired ownership of Possum Poke in March 1999 following concerns about the preservation of this historical hunting retreat.
