The Ranch has operated solely as a recreational property since it was purchased by the present Owners in the 80s. It offers rolling oak country and beautiful valleys amid creeks and drainage's. With elevation changes from 1800 to 2100 feet, youll enjoy endless hilltop viewing. There is outstanding tree cover provided by oaks, cedar, sycamore, and pinon pine, as well as abundant grass cover for soil retention. Neighbors are all large with high fences on two sides

The ranchs native habitat includes a mixture of huge oak in the creek bottoms with plentiful acorns and many water holes that attract large flocks of turkey year around. Smaller oak, juniper, hack-berry, cedar and elm create a diverse woody cover on the hills. Peaceful and beautiful valleys open into plentiful grass cover. Huge native pecans fill the creek bottoms. Testimony to good management practices is the abundance of buffelgrass, bluestems, and sideoats grama. Wildlife includes whitetail deer, a large herd of axis and fallow deer, aoudad, turkey, dove, bobcat, hogs, blackbuck, rabbit, squirrel, fox, and more. There are new stands positioned around the Ranch and12 Hang-em-High feeders plus protein feeders to bring in the game. The fishing is good in creek for large mouth bass.
WATER
This is where the Ranch out shines all others and includes over a mile on both sides of a spring fed creek (Middle Fork of the Nueces) with great live water and many holes for swimming and fishing. Even in time of drought, such as now, these springs flow, attracting herds and flocks to its bank. Three wells, two electric and one windmill plus three or four known springs that water livestock and wildlife and flow into the creek.

PRICE
The Ranch is priced at 2.35 Mil for 1/2 interest. The Co-Owners are more than willing to cooperate with the new Owners and have set up a calendar giving both parties equal use. This calendar can be modified to suit both parties. All expenses are shared equally making this a great opportunity to own five million dollar Ranch for half the money. Seller is willing to finance with a down payment. As a Ranch Broker it has been my experience that owners of recreational ranches use the facilities less than 6 weeks out of the year. This option gives the new owner 26 weeks, more than enough to satisfy everyone.
