Location

A serene 5-minute drive down the tree-lined Dobbs Road brings you to the Iris Ranch entrance. This type of seclusion is often accompanied by long travels to nearby towns. However, the Iris Ranch is located just 8 minutes from the city of Garrison, and 22 minutes to the substantial East Texas town of Nacogdoches. Boasting true accessibility to any and all amenities. The property’s nearly equidistant proximity to Houston and Dallas provides further value to the hidden gem of a ranch. Distances to Texas’ Metroplexes
