Ayavalla Plantation

Ayavalla Plantation was a quail hunting plantation located in west central Leon County, Florida established by John H. Phipps.

Ayavalla was the indian word used by Ellen Call Long for Lake Jackson. Long was the previous resident of nearby Orchard Pond Plantation and daughter of Governor Richard Keith Call.

Upon John S. Phipps' death in 1958, Orchard Pond Plantation and 1200 acres were passed on to grandson Colin Phipps and grandson John E. Phipps was given 2100 acres on Ox Bottom Road. [Paisley, Clifton; "From Cotton To Quail", University of Florida Press, c1968, pp. 83-84.]

Currently, Ayavalla along with the neighboring property of Elinor Klapp-Phipps Park hosts part of the Red Hills Horse Trials
