It’s a rarity a ranch of this size with such unique qualities as the K-888 Ranch comes available in western Jackson Co. Offering 3 miles of spring-fed Arenosa Creek, lakes for duck and dove hunting, huge oak trees, thick brush and open pasture for grazing makes this a fantastic ranch holding for the recreational buyer along with the discerning cattleman.
Location and Access: Located in west Jackson County, 3.5-miles east of Inez, TX in Jackson County. Accessed off of CO 317, 15-miles east of Victoria, 110-miles west of Houston. Easily accessed off Hwy-59.
Hunting and Fishing: Deer hunting is excellent due to thoughtful management practices over a number of years. The property has yielded one buck netting 164 B&C and other high-quality mature deer. The owner primarily focused on culling and the buck to doe ratio to improve the trophy hunting and it shows! With the thick cover and huge trees for roosting along the 3-miles of creek, Rio Grande Turkeys are prolific. Dove, wood duck and other migratory waterfowl are attracted to the water sources and make for good hunting. There is no shortage of feral hogs and other varmints to round out your hunting experiences.
After good rains there is good catfishing (mostly all blue cats) in the creek. When it is down, there are lots of small bass and panfish in the deeper pools scattered all along the creek.
Water: 3-miles of spring-fed Arenosa Creek, two-acre natural lake, one half-acre man-made tank and multiple smaller natural ponds. A domestic water well is located at the camp with an additional water well located at the SW property corner. Lots of potential to add additional surface water throughout the property. Even during extreme drought conditions the creek has never stopped flowing during the current ownership’s tenure.
Improvements: There is a three-bedroom two-bath trailer, large Morgan building used as a social building, metal shed for storage, Water well, aerobic septic system and electricity all located at the camp. There are over 5 miles of native soil roads providing access around the ranch. The roads were built with a motor grader with native soils and are in good condition.
Range/Topography: The property is roughly a mix of native pasture with mesquite and huisache brush with some nice live oaks scattered throughout. Along the creek the cover is a dense canopy of live oaks, white oaks, other hardwoods and brush.
Topography is generally flat with a gentle slope toward the creek, the highest point being 60ft with elevations of 35ft along the creek. The property drains well. Soils generally consist of fine sandy loam in the pastures and sandy clay along the creek.
Multiple entrances spread throughout the property to enter into the canopy leading down to the creek make leaving the prairie feel like entering a different world. Trails along the creek and open meadows within are incredibly scenic and full of game.
Minerals: This sale is a surface estate sale only. There is no current production on the ranch.
Easements: There is a pipeline easement and transmission easement in the north end of the property.
Price: $3,956,394 ($4450 per acre)
