Chupadera Ranch
Chupadera Ranch is completely surrounded by national forest which makes this ranch a very unique holding given its easy access. This setup will allow a new owner to easily set up a small cattle ranch or horse ranch. The ranch has the best set of pipe corrals in the area. The ranch sits in an area that receives little attention because it is off the beaten path but has no limit of things to do and see. Run some cattle to keep the tax exemption and enjoy hunting and recreation on the ranch and national forest.

There is an older home that needs some work but can be habitable. There is also a really neat old homestead cabin that is good condition and has power to it.
