Topography, Rangeland & Habitat

The topography on the ranch is gently rolling with elevations from 860 – 890’. Vegetation features prime South Texas browse, along with a mix of buffel and native grasses for prime quail habitat. Water is distributed well across the ranch, both in troughs and well-fed small surface tanks. The red soils in this area are generally light sandy/sandy loams, with the majority of soils on this ranch consisting of Cuevitas-Randado and Delmita-Randado Complexes. This is a very dog-friendly ranch, possessing ample maintained strips throughout the ranch for easy access quail hunting.

Wildlife

The ranch is low fenced on two sides, and has regularly produced trophy, native South Texas deer.  Bobwhite quail flourish in this area with the cooperation of the weather, and the dove hunting is often fantastic, particularly in mid-season when temperatures cool off some and again in the late season around Christmas.  Coyotes, bobcats, javelina and hogs can also be found on the ranch. The ranch has been responsibly hunted and managed by friends and family for many years.

This ranch has historically been operated as a cow-calf operation and is under agricultural valuation for tax purposes. There are 6 pastures, each with water, for rotational grazing. Strips have been maintained by shredding on an every-other-year basis and are in good condition.

Improvements

The ranch house features are simple, but clean and very functional.  Constructed from concrete block with a metal roof, the main part of the house includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms.  The two bunk rooms are a newer addition, each sleeping 8 with two full baths and multiple showers. A nice addition to this camp is the fully-screened in porch that wraps the main house and the front of the bunk rooms.
