The diversity of this ranch is really impressive! It has bottom land with excellent fertile sandy loam soil, high hills in the center with great views, two creeks, six stock ponds and superb brush diversity. Set up with blinds, feeders and a nice hunting camp, this ranch is ready to go! LOCATION Located in Frio County just off of Highway 140. 20 minutes west of the HEB in Pearsall and approximately 1 hour from downtown San Antonio. The ranch is about 2 miles off of Highway 140 with two easement access roads. One is a brand new, wide caliche road and the other is a paved road. Seclusion with great access! IMPROVEMENTS The headquarters area is very nice and clean and is loaded with large mesquite trees. Improvements at the headquarters consist of two mobile homes, a cantina/cook shack, pavilions, fire pits, concrete patios, modest shooting range, parking, sidewalks, two containers and an enclosed barn. There are electric swing gates from Highway 140 to the headquarters. The ranch has 10 nice hunting blinds, 10 corn feeders and approximately 10 protein feeders. EQUIPMENT TO BE CONVEYED None other than 10 blinds, 10 corn feeders and approximately 10 protein feeders. WATER Water is important on a ranch and this one has plenty of it! There are six ponds, one is fed with a solar well. Elm Creek and Jack Creek hold pockets of water during normal rainfall. There are three water wells, one is solar and the other two are submersible. In addition, there are eight rainwater harvest stations with a water trough at each one and twelve additional water troughs fed by the two submersible water wells. TERRAIN/HABITAT The elevations range from less than 650' to 800' above sea level. Soils consist of sandy loams and clay loams in the bottom with heavy gravel loam and gravel in the hills. The brush diversity is some of the best I've seen with species such as granjeno, guayacan, guajillo, blackbrush, and lotebush to name a few. Trees consist of mesquite, cedar elm, hackberry, persimmon and live oak along with a few others that are common to the area. Native grass of big bluestem, gramma, windmill grass, curley mesquite and others cover the ranch. The grasses along with the brush provide great quail habitat and great habitat for deer and turkey as well. WILDLIFE This ranch is high fenced and has a quality deer herd that is currently under an MLD management program. There have been some whitetail genetics introduced in the past. There is an abundance of turkey and dove and we have been seeing good numbers of quail as well. Wild hogs are plentiful, although we are currently working on lowering those numbers. Overall a great combination with diverse wildlife! EASEMENTS One pipeline easement MINERALS Surface sale only SUMMARY Don't pass up on a great opportunity to own this fantastic ranch! Great location, diverse wildlife, and two wet weather creeks that also provide great habitat. Located just 20 minutes from grocery stores in Pearsall, this ranch is secluded yet easy to get to! This ranch is ready to go for this hunting season! DISCLAIMER: THE BEDROOM DIMENSIONS ARE APPROXIMATE
