Topography, Rangeland & Habitat
With an elevation range from 230 to 170 feet, the III D Ranch offers 60 feet of scenic topographic relief, enhancing both its visual appeal and drainage. The gently undulating rangeland is dotted with mature Live Oak trees and a healthy mix of native grasses, including Old World Bluestem and Bermuda grass—ideal for both grazing and habitat diversity. The minimal presence of invasive Huisache is a testament to the ranch’s careful management and stewardship over the years. Along the 4,550 feet of Mud Creek frontage, thick stands of native browse create a prime sanctuary for wildlife, supporting the property’s reputation for outstanding hunting.
Wildlife
Wildlife is abundant and diverse. Whitetail deer, turkey, and hogs are prevalent throughout the property. The stock tanks attract large numbers of dove, while turkey are frequently seen along Mud Creek. Quail thrive in the native grass stands, making this a premier destination for a variety of hunting pursuits.
Agriculture
The robust native and Bermuda grasses support a healthy, sustainable cattle herd year after year. Additionally, a dedicated 30-acre pasture has traditionally been used for hay production, providing a reliable source of feed throughout the seasons.
Improvements
The well-maintained, ranch-style 1,829 sq. ft. brick home, built in 1975, sits beneath a canopy of mature Live Oak and Pecan trees, offering shade and a classic South Texas setting. Nearby, a metal shop/barn with roll-up doors and a concrete foundation provides a secure, functional workspace. A three-sided, three-bay pole barn offers ample room for equipment storage. Adjacent to the barns are well-designed pipe working pens, constructed to allow a single individual to efficiently handle cattle. Beside the pens stands a traditional barn featuring three stalls and a tack room, ideal for horses or additional storage. A dedicated lane system connects the pastures to the pens, allowing cattle to be easily moved into either the main working area or a holding pen.
Water
Water is abundant and well-distributed across the ranch. Two deep stock tanks—approximately 1 acre and ½ acre in size—are supported by water lines that allow for supplemental water during extended dry spells. Two water wells service the home, barns, troughs, and tanks, ensuring consistent and reliable access to water for livestock and wildlife. Mud Creek, which runs for approximately 4,550 feet through the property, is traditionally a wet-weather creek, but holds water in numerous deep pockets for extended periods.
Electricity
Electricity is located at the headquarters.
Minerals
Surface sale only. There is no production on the property and it is not leased.
Area History
Goliad County was the site of two battles in the Texas Revolution. The Battle of Goliad was a minor skirmish early in the war. However, the subsequent battle of Coleto was an important battle that culminated on March 27, 1836. Col. James Fannin and his Texan soldiers were executed by the Mexican army, under orders from Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna, in what became known as the Goliad Massacre. This event led to the Texas Revolutionary battle cry, “Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!” Although many remember the Alamo today, fewer remember Goliad. The site of the massacre is located near Presidio la Bahia, just south of the town of Goliad.
