In the northern most portion of Bee County lies this very clean, blank slate 304 +/- acre ranch ready for the next landowner to come in and make it their own. The Poenisch Ranch has been under the same ownership for generations and has been primarily used as a cattle operation with very limited to no hunting in recent history. The owners have built the ranch out with high quality fencing to gather cattle in the center of the ranch for rotational grazing. With appropriate vision, the property will turn into a great hunting, cattle or combination ranch for the next owner.

Location
The ranch sits predominately in Bee County with a small portion north of Medio Creek in Karnes County. The ranch is 8 miles south of Kenedy, 70 miles from Corpus Christi, 60 miles from San Antonio, 135 miles from Austin, and 160 Miles from Houston. With great access on Paved FM 2985 and CR 154, it has easy access to and from town.
Topography, Rangeland & Habitat
The ranch is gently sloping from west to east with elevation ranging from 480 feet to 410 feet down at Medio Creek. Recently, the owners root plowed and disced roughly 150 acres and the recruitment of new native grasses has been excellent. The cleared area will be great for running cattle, hunting quail and shooting doves around the ponds. In the “back” portion of the ranch, the brush was left untouched and is a sanctuary for whitetails and native game.
Wildlife
Consistent with the area, the ranch will have an abundance of whitetail, dove and quail. This area of the county is known to grow trophy whitetails and the owners have not hunted deer on the ranch in years so the age structure should be there for the new owner the enjoy. In the area that has been cleared of brush, the quail population should be good with the great spring and summer rainfall we have been getting.
Agriculture
Current ownership has been operating the ranch as a cow/calf operation and the ranch has been set up in a “pie” shaped pasture system to push cattle from the outside in when they rotate pastures.
Improvements
There is a set of working pens in the center of the ranch and the ranch is fenced into several pastures.
Water
The ranch has 4 surface tanks, one of which is nearly 1.5 acres. Medio Creek cuts through the northeast corner of the ranch as well providing rainwater catchment to the larger of the stock tanks. There is El Oso “county” water running along CR 154 and there is a water meter if someone wants to bring water into the ranch.
Electricity
There is electricity along both the Country Road and the FM road along on the northern and western boundaries.
Minerals
This is a surface only sale.
Key Features
The property is ag exempt, and the taxes are estimated to be $288
