Conveniently located only 6± miles east of Pearsall. Rancho Cinco R offers very convenient access to the rich, productive red dirt soils of Frio County. It is just 60± miles south of San Antonio, 140± miles south of Austin, 150± miles west of Corpus Christi, and 250± miles southwest of Houston.

For its acreage size, this property offers impressive habitat diversity that is more likely found on much larger ranches. The terrain is ideal for wildlife, with two heavily wooded bottom draws leading to heavily covered flats of Forbes and native grasses and weeds, transitioning up to the smaller ridge line in the southwest corner where the headquarters is located and on up to the highest ridge line located in the northwest corner offering 360° views of this property and area. This diversity provides whitetail with what they need for cover and browsing, turkey with ample large trees for roosting and loafing, and quail with the cover they need to feed and nest. This area and county are very well known for some of the best migration of dove in Texas. Two neighbors intensely manage for private quail and dove hunting.

Rancho Cinco R was developed to be enjoyed by larger families or groups in mind and has numerous newer improvements. Notable improvements include:

  • Electric gate entrance with a concrete approach
  • New game fence on three sides, and one side is older game fence

The great diversity of habitat at Rancho Cinco R provides whitetail with what they need for cover and browsing, turkey with ample large trees for roosting and loafing, and quail with the cover they need to feed and nest. This area is very popular for good migration of dove. Two neighbors intensely manage for private quail hunting. The Seller did not take any whitetail deer off the ranch this past season and introduced four bred does and four bucks from an impressive 200+ genetic stock to boost the native herd genetics. A game survey has not been completed but for its size there appear to be sufficient deer on game pics. Wild hogs have been removed and there are no exotic game species on the ranch. This area and county are well known for some of the best migration of dove in Texas.

The property had an existing water well that services the original home and produces up to 20± gpm. The current Seller had a new water well completed Sept 2022 with a 5-HP pump that produces about 60± gpm. The new well services the new home and supplements the lake. The ranch also features an impressive brand new 2.5± acre 40 mil textured-lined lake that is 16’ deep. It was completed in the early summer of 2024 and is the primary viewpoint that offers a stunning backdrop from the headquarters.
