Any wildlife enthusiast will appreciate the uniqueness of the diverse habitat on the Lee River Ranch. There are thick hardwood bottomlands comprised of pecans, elms, cedars, hackberry, cottonwoods and oaks. Wild plum thickets provide excellent cover and browse for white-tailed deer. In addition, the Lee River Ranch also has large open grassland meadows with scattered oaks that provide great edge effect for quail and turkey. Water – and water access – are an important asset of the property. The ranch resides along the Red River and is well watered. In addition, the property has a magnificent, large oxbow, several spring-fed ponds, seasonal creeks and other sloughs that make great wintering waterfowl habitat. 

A result of the tremendous habitat diversity, the Lee Ranch offers excellent hunting for a variety of wildlife. The river bottoms and food plots provide superb whitetail hunting and ample roosting habitat for turkey. The bluestem fields make exceptional nesting habitat for bobwhite quail and turkey. And, of course, the abundance of water and valuable sloughs along the Red River are prime habitat for wintering waterfowl. 

Livestock pens, along with good cross-fencing, provide ideal infrastructure for a livestock operation. A water well and electricity are located near the livestock pens. Although we don’t have information on this specific well, other area wells are typically 30-60 ft deep with volumes that range from 30-100 GPM
