IMPROVED INTERIOR RANCH ROADS & TRAILS
Access to and through the ranch couldn’t be more convenient. With just over a mile of paved county road frontage on County Road 416, three gated entrances, and a well-designed network of improved interior roads, the road system throughout the property makes it easy to navigate and manage the land.

PURE TEXAS HILL COUNTRY
The ranch showcases some of the most dynamic and beautiful Hill Country topography you’ll find anywhere. From rugged, scenic ridgelines and steep mountain slopes to gently rolling pastures and rich bottomland along Lake Creek, the landscape is as diverse as it is striking. Elevations range from about 1,318 to over 2,050 feet, creating endless views, incredible building sites, and classic Hill Country character.
- Nearly 3 miles of both sides Lake Creek Frontage
- Four spring-fed lakes
- Five Water Wells
- 510± acre-feet of permitted groundwater rights
- Two concrete drive-across dams
- Two earthen dams
Water across the ranch is supplied by five wells strategically located throughout the property, each equipped with submersible pumps — one powered by solar. Every well feeds into a system of storage tanks, pipelines, and troughs that efficiently distribute water to various areas for domestic wildlife and livestock use. An irrigation well sits on a 100’ x 100’ plot west of County Road 416, accessed by a 15-foot easement. This well is permitted for an impressive 510± acre-feet of permitted groundwater rights through the Uvalde County Water Conservation District and features a 10 HP submersible pump. Piping is already in place to move water from the west side of the road to the east, providing irrigation for small fields and helping sustain three picturesque spring-fed lakes, if needed, with concrete and earthen dams. These lakes lie along the scenic Lake Creek, which winds gracefully through the property for nearly 3 miles — adding natural beauty, reliable surface water and endless recreational opportunities to this exceptional ranch.
The ranch showcases a diverse mix of Hill Country vegetation, thoughtfully balanced between open pastures and dense native cover. Strategic clearing provides ideal grazing areas, while heavily wooded sections offer incredible habitat for wildlife seeking food and shelter. Scenic overlooks and rugged limestone ledges rise above the creek—perfect for the adventurous spirit who might fancy a high dive into the deep, clear water below. You’ll find a beautiful array of native species throughout the ranch, including live oak, blue oak, shin oak, Spanish oak, guajillo, buckeye, mountain laurel, elm, piñon pine, Texas sotol, and countless others that make this live water ranch landscape so rich and inviting.
