Yellowfork Ranch is a remarkable 586-acre turn-key ranch located just a few minutes from Breckenridge, TX, in beautiful Stephens County. With a perfect combination of food, water, cover, and rolling topography, this ranch is ideal for cattle and wildlife. The owner has taken great care in developing food plots equipped with several feeders that are easily accessible from the diverse trail system present on the property. A larger food plot was intentionally seeded with sunflowers and is now regularly rotated with wheat, creating an outstanding hunting ground for dove. Yellowfork Ranch is primarily covered in native warm-season grasses and lightly grazed forbs, ensuring optimal conditions for both livestock and hunting game. This ranch has successfully implemented measures to ensure a year-round presence of deer by providing adequate feeding and bedding locations. Despite the recent drought conditions in some areas of the county, most of the ponds on this ranch have retained enough water to support the cattle while also attracting waterfowl. Three of the eight ponds are home to a diverse and thriving population of various fish species, including largemouth bass, catfish, and sun perch, providing endless fun and entertainment throughout the year. Spring turkey hunting has been consistently successful in recent years thanks to the property's proximity to major creeks.
At the end of a gravel road, you'll find a modern mobile home with a cozy setting. This fully furnished home is an ideal turn-key property for anyone looking for a comfortable option with electricity, a new septic system, and a water delivery service in place. The home consists of three bedrooms, two spacious bathrooms, an open-concept living room, and a modern kitchen area. It is perched high enough to view the west pond and neighboring hillsides. You can view a feeder from the living room, which attracts many wildlife species. This 50-acre area is fenced to protect the home, RV/camper sites, and equipment from cattle.
Yellowfork Ranch boasts excellent cattle management by the property owner. With over five miles of well-maintained barbed wire fencing surrounding the entire boundary, the property is secure and free from any risk of cattle escape. There are four fenced pastures, three of which are for rotating cattle, and the fourth is fenced off to ensure the safety of the living quarters.
AGENT COMMENTS: Yellowfork Ranch is a true haven for outdoor enthusiasts with strategically placed food plots, well-maintained trails, and dense woods that provide mature whitetails the security they need. Encircled by other well-managed cattle ranches, it is conveniently located and accessible in all weather conditions thanks to the oil company that maintains its roads. Leasing your property to a trusted oil company has numerous benefits, and the owner of Yellowfork Ranch is confident that they own 30% of the royalties, which they will convey with an attractive offer. It's worth noting that in the past, the pumper would make his rounds during mid-day, so rest assured that his presence wouldn't disrupt your hunting activities. Yellowfork Ranch is a turn-key ranch with no cleanup or TLC needed, making it the perfect choice for anyone looking for a hassle-free hunting experience.
