There are 30+ gates and a nice set of working pends with squeeze chute and cut gates near the ranch headquarters.
Headquarters is roughly an acre under fence with an additional rock 2 bedroom, 2 bath home that was completed in 2006. The walls on the home average 30" in thickness. This well insulated home was built with stone native to the ranch. Outside there is a 4 car carport, covered patio, unique outbuildings, as well as a nice shop with a concrete floor.
Pastures are a unique mixture of B'dahl grass (estimated at 170 acres in 8 pastures), with an additional 20+ acres of coastal Bermuda and 50+ acres of Klein grass. The 100 acres located at the corner of FM932 and CR414 was also a coastal pasture that was last used approximately 4 years ago for bailing hay. The current owner has never had more than 30 cows on the property and has sold calves as weanlings each year. The property has been lightly grazed and has potential for higher animal production.
The water well is 500 feet deep and said to have reached the Second Trinity Aquifer. It delivers 35gpm and has two 2,500 gallon storage tanks. The water well services the homes and the water troughs in the pastures.
There are two seasonal creeks that traverse the ranch and provide run off to multiple stock tanks, one that grows to approximately 5 acres with adequate rainfall. Rainfall has been quite low for the past two years, but most of the tanks currently have water. Although there isn't thick, heavy tree cover, deer, turkey, dove and other wildlife are prevalent.
The name of the ranch was inspired by the remnants of a large stone corral with approximately half of the corral still standing. There is also a historic "safe house" on the property that was constructed by early settlers for protection. Evidence also remains of an old home site and rock fences that are visible in multiple areas. A local historian says that there are very few "safe houses" still intact in Central Texas.
