The interior of this ranch is a combination of heavy native tree cover and grass. The terrain is flat to rolling offering scenic, panoramic views. Notable improvements include cross fencing, interior roads and selective land clearing. The old rock ranch house is a unique fixer upper. It has a living room, dining area, two bedrooms as well as one bath. Water and electric are behind the house. There are two wells around 235 ft deep. both have windmills and one has a secondary electric pump running to the house. Another point of interest are the two good-sized caves on the ranch. One is located fairly close to the house and the other is about a mile away. The old stagecoach road ran through the property and has been marked by the rocks at what was possibly the way station. This ranch has not been hunted in five years. Housing, the added attraction of caves, abundant wildlife, good tree and grass cover would make this a tremendous hunting property as well as a place for the family to enjoy all year long.
