Explore the breathtaking beauty of the vast Silver S Ranch…
Located on the Lower Pecos River in Southwest Texas, this inspiring property is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any rancher, hunter, or adventurer that includes 9.25 miles of stunning river frontage, the impressive Harkell Cave, access to 18 water wells, multiple homes, and a deep connection to nature and various wildlife.
With an unprecedented investment in road and access development, the owner will have immediate access to enjoy, utilize and manage the large ranch. In addition to the quality roads and drivable river access, the property is equipped with five very nice yet modest homes (including one historical), a shop, an equipment barn and several other updated structures. The unbelievably clear water of the Pecos River, rippling arroyos and active wildlife create an extraordinary oasis from the outside world.
WATER
The 9.25-mile stretch of the Lower Pecos River is a mesmerizing sight, featuring clear spring-fed waters, towering canyon walls and an incredible fishery. This secluded river corridor offers deep holes and small rapids, making it perfect for canoeing, kayaking, fishing, tubing, waterfowl hunting, wildlife watching, and simply exploring. Anglers can anticipate catching largemouth bass, sunfish, freshwater drum, catfish, and carp. The expansive river frontage provides unmatched beauty and endless opportunities for exploration, a feature rarely found on other ranches.
Distinctive aspects of the ranch’s riverfront are the conveniently located put-in and take-out points offering easy access to water activities. To the north is the Grapevine access point while the Live Oak access point lies to the south, both capable of driving a sports car to the river’s edge. The vega along the river at the Live Oak access point stretches for nearly 1.5 miles, providing another exceptional opportunity for usable river frontage.
In addition to the river, the ranch boasts 18 water wells, the majority of which are operational and provide water access for wildlife, as well as distribution to drinkers and natural water features. Several of the water wells are capable of flow rates in excess of 100 GPM, ensuring a reliable and abundant water source throughout the property.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
As you travel west from the Texas Hill Country to the Trans Pecos, there is a certain element that sets one ranch apart from another, known as the wow factor. The Silver S Ranch embodies the wow factor, thanks to its unique natural features and enhanced accessibility within the rugged terrain of the lower canyonlands of the Pecos River.
In addition to the breathtaking Pecos River Canyon, the ranch is home to numerous other stunning canyons, including the massive Harkell Canyon and the equally impressive Moose Canyon. The property also boasts a variety of caves, shelters and rock art sites, inviting exploration and discovery. Elevations range from about 1,320 feet to nearly 1,935 feet at several locations.
Native grasses and a wide range of brush cover the ranch, with stands of live oaks and shin oaks found within the canyons and arroyos.
Historically, much of the ranch was used for sheep grazing and some limited cattle grazing. It is currently managed for wildlife and has been for some time.
WILDLIFE, HUNTING & FISHING
The Silver S Ranch is teeming with wildlife, offering an abundance of hunting and watching opportunities. The seller has made significant investments in the quail and deer populations as well as other wildlife. The ranch is home to quality populations of white-tailed deer, scaled quail, javelina, aoudad, dove and waterfowl. A year-round supplemental feeding program is in place with blinds and feeders placed across the property. Predators including mountain lions, coyotes, bobcats and foxes can also be found on the ranch. Occasionally, a mule deer will make an appearance, and black bears are known to be expanding into the area.
Birdwatching opportunities exist with migratory songbirds and raptors present at certain times of the year. Situated along the Monarch butterfly migration route, ranch owners can witness one of the world’s most awe-inspiring phenomena during the October migration.
ROADS
Access is one of the most crucial requirements for a property of this size and in this area. The Silver S Ranch delivers 24 miles of professionally built roads with reinforced culverts, designed to last for years with minimal maintenance. There are two drive-down roads leading directly to the river, both allowing 2WD access. Each road is strategically spaced about a day’s fishing or paddling distance apart. These top-notch roads make the ranch usable at a level that is hard to replicate.
HOMES & STRUCTURES
At the heart of Silver S is the main headquarters area that includes the newly updated, historic 3-bedroom Merle and French Ingram cut limestone home that dates back to the 1930s. A small remodeled guest cabin, a relatively new ranch hand trailer, an equipment barn, a shop, a storage barn, and several other outbuildings can also be found in the main headquarters area.
To the north, there is an additional 4-bedroom ranch home with an open floor plan and nearby small barn used for hunting vehicle storage. This home is conveniently near Pandale Road, allowing easy access to the property.
To the south, you will find a visually appealing and comfortable 3-bedroom double-wide overlooking the stunning Pecos River and Harkell Canyon.
SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS
The Harkell Cave is hidden on the Pecos River side of Harkell Canyon with commanding views of the river. The cave has been cleaned and equipped with a fire pit, chairs and a hefty supply of firewood, providing the perfect spot to relax or enjoy the spectacular canyon and river views, complete with an adult beverage and cigar! The cave is accessible via trail and a set of custom steps with rails, making it an ideal retreat.
The drivable access point at Live Oak has a beautifully maintained lawn in the river vega offering a scenic setting for camping and cookouts. The road leading out of the river through the ranch’s Live Oak Pasture (named after the large Live Oak along the river that has managed to grow and thrive seemingly out of solid rock) is known as the Encino Solo Trail. In the early days of ranching in this part of Texas, the area ranchers used the Encino Solo Trail to cross the Pecos River and move their livestock from pastures east of the river to shipping points on the western side.
On the northern portion of the river is the Grapevine entry point where swimmers, kayakers, and tubers can access the water for a peaceful float downstream to Live Oak.
MINERALS & COMMERCIAL WATER
Approximately 3,950+ acres are state-classified minerals, and the rights associated with those will convey. There are no leases or production in place.
Seller’s fee minerals and commercial water rights are reserved but negotiable. Contact the Broker for more information.
TAXES
The open spaces of the ranch are being managed for wildlife and appraised under 1-D-1-Wildlife Management valuation.
HISTORY
The ranch has numerous sites containing Native American Pictographs (Rock Art). Shumla Archaeological Research and Education Center (Shumla) studied the pictographs on the property. They found that the upper bench of an offshoot canyon, running west and adjacent to the Pecos River, contains an archaeological rock art mural that is approximately 43 meters long with 36 different grinding features and remnant paint interspersed among the bedrock. The rock art features a large Pecos River style mural, an art style that dates back approximately 3,000 years.
The nearby town of Langtry is rich in history and is known for Judge Roy Bean and his colorful style of justice. Langtry offers the Judge Roy Bean Visitor Center and a few services.
Seminole Canyon State Park is just down the road where human habitation started about 10,000 years ago. The cave art is stunning and is very similar to the art found on Silver S Ranch.

AGRICULTURE
The ranch has maintained a robust agricultural operation over the years primarily focused on livestock grazing and including some limited irrigated farming under the four pivots.
The ranch’s cattle herd has been in a rotational grazing program since 1971 with cattle being rotated through 14 primary pastures. The cattle herd typically numbers about 450 cows when conditions are right. Currently, the herd is reduced in size due to drought conditions.
The four pivots are used for hay production (about 900 round bales per year) and small grain annuals for irrigated winter grazing, both in support of the ranch’s cattle operation. The smaller of the pivots was used historically with crops known to attract dove. The pivots are approximately 12, 40, 52 and 67 acres in size and are irrigated with several irrigation wells.
Several pastures on the ranch include stands of kleingrass.

$25,101,540 • 7,538 acres
For the first time in generations, the historic Randado Ranch is being offered for sale—a true South Texas legacy property under the same family’s stewardship for 95 years. It is among the finest combination cattle, deer, and quail ranches we’ve had the privilege to list for sale. A significant feature of the ranch is its extraordinary water resources, which are distributed throughout the property.
The property has a long, rich history of intensive deer and game management dating back to 1965, when Al Brothers became ranch manager and pioneered many of the quality deer management techniques that remain the foundation of modern practices today. One could argue that modern deer management was born on this ranch during Al Brothers’ three-decade tenure as its ranch manager. He is widely regarded as one of the true fathers of white-tailed deer management. In 1966, the property was high-fenced—one of the very first ranches in South Texas to do so—and that innovation became a defining trend across the region.
The Randado Ranch continues to maintain a strong native deer herd that has consistently produced trophy whitetails for decades. The sandy soils of the western sand sheet provide outstanding browse and first-class quail habitat, supporting abundant quail populations. Cattle operations benefit from well-designed infrastructure, while the ranch’s location and water resources create phenomenal dove hunting opportunities as well. The owners’ long-standing care and attention to detail are evident in every aspect of this remarkable property.
The family’s deep conservation ethic is further reflected in their long-standing support of wildlife research, including numerous studies conducted in partnership with Dr. Charlie DeYoung through Texas A&M University–Kingsville (formerly Texas A&I).
LOCATION
The ranch is located along Highway 16, approximately 26 miles south of Hebbronville, Texas, and about a three-hour drive from San Antonio. It is easily accessible via the Jim Hogg County Airport in Hebbronville or the ranch’s own 4,500-foot private airstrip (not currently in use).
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Over 80% of the Randado Ranch is comprised of Brennan, Copita, and Delmita sands, which are characteristic of the South Texas Sand Sheet. These deep, sandy soils occur primarily in the bottomland areas with very little topographic relief, creating ideal habitat for both cattle and wildlife. A distinctive escarpment rises along the northern section of the property, offering a noticeable change in elevation and providing impressive long-range vistas—a rare feature in this part of Jim Hogg County.
Three creek bottoms traverse the property and carry water during periods of substantial rainfall. Los Tanques Creek Bottom, the most significant of the three, runs through the center of the ranch and serves as a defining natural feature. The other two drainages provide similar ecological value and further enhance the ranch’s habitat diversity.
The ranch contains a well-established caliche quarry that produces quality material used for building and maintaining the extensive system of ranch roads. This resource is a long-term operational benefit.
Divided into 12 well-managed pastures, the ranch supports an efficient rotational grazing system for the cattle operation. The range supports a healthy variety of native grasses. The main introduced grass is buffel. Nominal, if any, tangle head grass is believed to be present on the property. This balance creates ideal conditions for both livestock productivity and native wildlife diversity.
The habitat on the ranch is a diverse mix of unmolested native brush and areas of old regrowth from earlier brush work designed to enhance quail hunting opportunities. The resulting mosaic provides ideal conditions to support the ranch’s balance of game and livestock operations. Dominant brush species include prickly pear, guayacán, granjeno, kidneywood, coma, Texas ebony, mesquite, and guajillo, among many others typical of the South Texas brush country.
Across the property, a total of 19 high-fenced fields and 18 low-fenced fields have been strategically established, with 23 of these fields (83 acres) used to plant winter oats annually each fall.
WILDLIFE
White-tailed Deer
High-fenced since 1966, the all native whitetail herd has been managed for decades, consistently producing exceptional trophy-class bucks. A comprehensive supplemental feeding program was introduced in 2009, initially featuring protein pellets and later incorporating cottonseed, to promote herd health and maximize antler development. The result is one of the most balanced and genetically desireable native whitetail deer populations in South Texas. The herd consistently yields a high fawn crop and maintains an ideal age class structure, with a healthy number of bucks in each age class. White-tailed deer hunting is limited to family and friends and is accomplished through the use of thirty-seven hunting blinds located throughout the ranch.
Quail
Northern Bobwhite and Blue Scaled Quail: One of the first things noticed when entering the property is the exceptional grassy cover throughout the property. The careful management of the grasses along with the extensive water development produces a high number of quail. The current owners have not maintained all of the habitat created for hunting quail; however, it would take minimal effort to reclaim and create a significant amount of habitat for hunting quail via multi-dog strings and quail rigs. As it is, there are plenty of locations to drop a dog or two and walk/buggy hunt.
Mourning & White-wing Dove
The property offers outstanding Mourning & White-winged Dove hunting in part due to its abundant food and 60 earthen tanks distributed across the ranch. Mark Matthews assisted in flying the early October aerial game survey and noted seeing more mourning and white-winged doves in the helicopter survey than ever seen in his 44 years of flying game surveys.
IMPROVEMENTS
The majority of improvements are situated within the headquarters compound near the center of the property. The main house consists of a spacious living area, a well-appointed kitchen, and gun room with large safe. The two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath main house is surrounded by four casitas, providing ample lodging for family and guests. Together, the main house and casitas offer six bedrooms and six-and-a-half baths. The main house was remodeled in 2024, blending modern comfort with traditional ranch style.
Additional headquarters improvements include a manager’s house, storage modules, a deer processing area with a walk-in cooler, barn, and multiple covered equipment sheds. A reverse osmosis (RO) water treatment system with 1,000 gallons of storage is housed in its own dedicated shed, ensuring high-quality water throughout the compound. There is also on-site fuel storage, including 500 and 2,000-gallon diesel tanks and a 1,000-gallon unleaded gasoline tank, providing ample fuel reserves for vehicles and equipment.
For livestock and operational efficiency, the ranch features three sets of cattle pens strategically located across the north, central, and southern portions of the property, as well as a horse arena. For target practice, there is a 100-yard shooting range plus a dedicated 1,000-yard long-range.
The rectangular-shaped ranch is easily accessible via an extensive, well-maintained road system, regularly graded with a motor grader/maintainer. Pasture travel is seamless thanks to cattle guards connecting nearly all pastures—no gates need to be opened, even when livestock are present.
WATER
The property has 17 electric water wells, 60 earthen tanks, and 13 water troughs/pilas. Thirty-one of the earthen tanks and all water troughs can be filled from one or more water wells through miles of extensive piping. There are multiple water sources in every pasture, limiting the distance wildlife and cattle must travel for water. Even in drought years, the ranch has the ability to put water in all pastures. The water wells were located throughout the ranch back when management engaged in planting lablab fields (food plots) with underground drip irrigation in its 19 high fenced fields. The property also has 3 operating windmills for water.
ELECTRICITY
Randado Ranch is well-serviced with an electrical infrastructure that provides power access throughout the property. Electricity is supplied by Medina Electric Cooperative and Reliant Energy, ensuring service across all operational areas of the ranch.
There are currently 17 active electric meters distributed to support the headquarters compound, water wells, equipment areas, and remote improvements. In addition, there are 6 locations where electrical service has been previously disconnected, which could be reestablished if desired.
MINERALS
Minerals are not available for offer on this ranch. A portion of Randado Ranch, totaling approximately 1,280 acres, is Mineral Classified. The owners are not conveying royalties on state-owned minerals.
Existing mineral production is primarily concentrated within a few designated pastures, much of it occurring on the Mineral Classified portion of the ranch. Currently, there are 11 active gas well sites.
$20,350,000 • 7,400 acres
La Brisa has been managed intelligently for cattle, white-tail, and quail continuously since the 70’s. The front gate on FM 490 is 18 minutes to the new Starbucks and Chick-fil-A in Rio Grande City. 60 miles of boundary high fence and internal low fence break the ranch into several pastures to manage for wildlife and move and work cattle. Water is there. Multiple water wells and over 3 dozen drought proof troughs and ponds are supplied year round. The ranch has graded caliche main roads as well as miles and miles of ranch roads and quail lanes totaling well north of 100 miles in total. Headquarters sits 3 and a half miles in the middle of the ranch and has everything you need with 3 houses and 30,000 SF of barns and quality pipe working pens.
This ranch isn’t flat, 170 feet of change from the brush country tops to the sandy bottoms and ag fields. Buffelgrass across the ranch holds quail well and keeps the cattle busy. The ag fields produce corn, milo, sunflowers, and sesame seeds. With the amount of tonnage of production of grain from 900 acres of ag fields, there is no reason to travel for wing shooting. One of the biggest opportunities with the ag fields is to potentially use this grain inside the ranch for further wildlife or cattle production if desired. Cattle and the ag fields keep La Brisa profitable from operations. White-tails, quail, turkey, and doves are at trophy levels. The ranch works today and is a good one. Come take a look.
LOCATION
La Brisa is located in Southeastern Starr county, only 16 minutes Northeast from the rapidly developing Rio Grande City, and 1 hour from McAllen. The location of this ranch will allow new owners the luxury of flying private into Rio Grande City Municipal (25 minutes away), or commercial from McAllen International (1 hour away).
Distances to Texas’ Metroplexes from the front gate listed below.
San Antonio: 218 miles, 3.5 hours
Austin: 304 miles, 4.75 hours
Houston: 351 miles, 5.25 hours
The property’s proximity to Rio Grande City is of huge value and is very rare for a ranch this size. The ability to go from losing track of time on a 7,000+ acre ranch chasing quail, whitetails, or cattle, and still being able to hop into town for an easy lunch is a nice perk. Rio Grande City provides access to other luxuries like the Texas favorite HEB PLUS!, a variety of restaurants, and several Farm and Ranch stores.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Positioned at the division between the highly productive pastures and crop ground of Eastern Starr County and the rolling brush covered hills of the western bounds of the county. The La Brisa is a rare property that boasts an ideally balanced split of both ecotypes thanks to the variety of soils and geology on the property. This diversity allows this ranch to be utilized as a true cattle, AG, and wildlife property all in one.
The highly productive pastures, and nearly 900 acres of row crop acreage on the ranch benefit from well drained sandy loams including Romadero and McAllen soil complexes. The 3000+ acres of improved grass on the property consist primarily of buffelgrass allowing a rancher to run 220+ head comfortably without risk of overgrazing. Buffelgrass being managed and grazed appropriately provides great habitat for Bobwhite quail.
In contrast the beautifully rolling uplands of the property are dominated by the more shallow Zapata soils which produce a variety of native brush species, key to the nutritional requirements of browsing species like whitetail, and other exotic species an owner may want to introduce to the ranch. These sections of the ranch offer beautiful high points to look over the land as well as dense concentrations of wildlife thanks to the ample amount of cover provided by the mixed brush. The entire ranch is grazed by cattle and rotated for management.
WILDLIFE
La Brisa Ranch has been managed intensely for wildlife interests for nearly 50 years. From strategized brush management to the implementation of 30+ watering stations on the property, grand ideas have not only been dreamed up, they have been acted upon.
High fenced management of the Whitetail herd through the Texas MLDP program has been a constant at La Brisa, promoting opportunities at Trophy class deer annually. Herd data from annual helicopter surveys have also been kept for tracking data and recording purposes.
In addition to the premier whitetail opportunities, the ranch also boasts healthy populations of quail and turkeys. Ample water resources and management of early successional habitat continues to foster a ranch where these highly coveted game birds can thrive and offer memory filled opportunities for a future owner and their friends and family. Bobwhite quail is the predominant species with coveys of Blue quails in the ranch’s high grounds.
In addition to the high fenced opportunities on La Brisa, there are ~780 acres of low fence pasture on the property’s eastern boundary that has a great healthy and managed low fence population of white-tails.
AGRICULTURE
900 acres of managed ag fields produce grain and cash income to the owner. The ranch comfortably supports 220 pairs of cattle year round.

AREA HISTORY
The La Brisa is situated in the storied ranchlands of Central Starr County, this area is rooted in the ranching system that developed in the 18th century, when expansive ranches were established along the Rio Grande frontier. Nearby Rio Grande City emerged from these early ranches as a center of cattle trade and cross-border commerce, shaping the region’s agricultural identity. Today, the surrounding landscape remains defined by large legacy ranches, native South Texas brush, productive farm land, and a long-standing connection to both ranching and energy development—offering a blend of heritage, productivity, and long-term investment appeal.
This ranch is co-brokered by Republic Ranches and Dan Kinsel Ranches.

Historic Plantation with Hunting & Recreational Land For Sale in Pickensville, AL
Owl Creek Plantation
Let me take you on a journey. A trip back in time. An excursion to a plantation unaware of the chaos of 2020. A place where the road ends and the enchantment of a simpler existence begins. Let me take you to Owl Creek Plantation.
Owl Creek is located on the AL/MS boundary in Pickens County, Alabama, just East of Macon, Mississippi. The yellow brick road truly does end at Owl Creek. When the lodge comes into view, it’s hard not to pull over on the lakeshore and take it in. Perfectly situated on the water's edge, with 6 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, screened porches, massive dining and entertaining areas, and sunset views that are otherworldly, Owl Creek Lodge grabs your heart from first glance. The lodge looks as though it too was created “in the beginning,” like it just belongs. Additionally, in the not too shabby guest house on the North end of the lake, you’ll find 3 more bedrooms with another 2.5 baths. Owl Creek can easily sleep 22 guests comfortably and has not only been a family retreat for over 70 years, it has been the site of many weddings and other social functions.
If, and that’s a big “if”, you can drag yourself away from the lodge, you can begin to find your way around the 3,040 acres of unbelievable serenity and beauty. The improved road system winds its way through massive hardwood stands along the majestic Tenn-Tom River. Strategically located throughout the property are wildlife fields overflowing with deer and turkeys, purposefully flooded cypress brakes for waterfowl and many deer stands only in need of an afternoon hunter. The hunting is so good in fact, several years ago the property generated over $200k in revenue from sold hunts.
The timber component of Owl Creek is mainly mature hardwood. There are a few scattered areas of managed loblolly pine creating habitat throughout the property. A recent timber cruise is available upon request and reflects a timber value of $4.2M. A new owner looking to add more habitat and recover some of the purchase price could easily take advantage of the timber market in the area.
And just when you think you’ve seen it all, you stumble upon Camp Duke. Camp Duke is on the southern end of the property, isolated from life. It’s the retreat within the retreat. Camp Duke IS social distancing. I can’t describe Camp Duke, you have to experience Camp Duke.
I’ve been blessed in my career to work with wonderful families and some unbelievable properties. They have all been special. Owl Creek Plantation sets the bar high for all the properties before, and all the properties yet to come.
So, Let me take you to Owl Creek Plantation.

Red Barn Ranch represents the rare opportunity to own a substantial, well-developed ranch in the rolling piney woods of northeast Texas with prime Lake Bob Sandlin frontage, immediate livability with multiple homes, proven wildlife and improved waterfowl habitat. It has rolling East Texas topography, strong groundwater resources, and significant upside for further future development – all at just under two hours from the Dallas metroplex. LOCATION Red Barn Ranch is east of Winnsboro, Texas, and just under a two-hour drive from Dallas, or 1 hour from Tyler. TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT These rolling hills give way to a beautiful mix of mature pine and hardwood timber, classic Post Oak Savannah terrain, topographic range, scattered pastures, and sandy-loam soils. There are multiple improved and scattered wildlife and wetland areas, creating excellent habitat for whitetail deer, waterfowl, and native East Texas wildlife. Good FM road frontage and gentle terrain throughout much of the upland areas present outstanding potential for additional lakeside homesites, and other opportunities if desired. The road system is winding, comfortable, and extensive, with a significant gravel base in some main sections, and the areas along the road corridors have been cleared and sculpted for the best wildlife viewing and exciting UTV property tours. WILDLIFE Roughly 150-200 acres of floodplain and creek drainages have been strategically enhanced on the Red Barn Ranch with shallow water impoundments, levees, and water control systems to create excellent duck habitat in the heart of the Central Flyway. The area around Red Barn Ranch, hugging the southwestern shore of Lake Bob Sandlin, sits right in the heart of a main migratory route that funnels millions of ducks and geese south each winter from the prairies of Canada to the Gulf Coast. Here, the piney woods meet sprawling reservoirs, creating a haven for ducks like mallards, gadwalls, and widgeon, alongside divers such as ring-necked ducks, lesser scaup, and the occasional canvasback splashing down on bigger water. It’s not the volume of coastal marshes, but what it lacks in sheer numbers, it makes up for in solitude and scenery: fewer crowds, timber-lined sloughs, and that crisp, woody air that makes every cupped wingbeat feel earned. White-tailed deer hunting is also a prime component of the Red Barn Ranch. Multiple enclosed and top-end deer blinds are strategically placed throughout the ranch, with 6 food plot locations, and complete with feeders in place. The range, soils, food plots, and waterfowl impoundments were all put in place by the current owner with guidance from Michael Embrey, wildlife biologist and consultant. In addition to the substantial Lake Bob Sandlin frontage and dock access, there are more than 8 other good-sized, stocked lakes, tanks, and ponds on various hillsides and at serene locations throughout the property that provide good bass fishing and other duck hunting opportunities. There are several newer fishing docks on them as well. IMPROVEMENTS Multiple homes are already in place: a very comfortable main lodge overlooking Bob Sandlin to the east with 4 bedrooms/4 baths and over 1,600 sf of living area; two guest houses separate from each other on the south end of the ranch in serene settings, and two caretaker residences up north on the FM road. This offers immediate turn-key living or hospitality options — everything you need to start living the legacy today, whether that means a family compound, a corporate retreat, a high-end hunting club, or a thoughtfully planned lakeside development. (The foreman’s house is currently under a short-term rental at approximately $2,000 per month.). On the southern half of the ranch are two ranch houses separate from each other which are set in serene settings, and are move-in ready. One is a log cabin style house with two stories, approximately 2,100 sf of living space, and a wrap around covered porch. The interior is wood paneled with 3 bedrooms. The second house is more modern, built in 2000, with large windows, two bedrooms, plus one bunk room. This one is also two stories, and has approximately 2,600 sf of living space, a concrete porch, and detached garage. There is also a recently built 1,300 sf barn nearby. WATER The ranch is generously serviced by multiple water wells tapping into the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer, which underlies much of the region, providing abundant groundwater for existing and future water wells. The three creek systems (Indian, Brushy, and Attway) wind through and across this ranch, with live water running. And there are over 8 good-sized lakes and ponds on various hillsides and at serene locations throughout the property that have good bass fishing and duck hunting opportunities. MINERALS Any owned minerals will convey with an acceptable contract. AREA HISTORY Winnsboro is one of the state’s most authentic small towns, and it has embraced its heritage while fostering tourism and historical preservation. The town features restored buildings, a cultural arts district, and events like gun shows, car cruises, art markets, and various celebrations. With a population of around 3,500, Winnsboro remains a hub for nearby cities, offering a relaxed atmosphere amid lakes, forests, and seasonal attractions like spring dogwoods, summer boating, and winter Christmas tree farms. OTHER True timeless East Texas spirit runs straight through Red Barn Ranch, with roughly a mile of shoreline of Lake Bob Sandlin — one of the prettiest, least-crowded big lakes in the state.

For More Information or To Schedule a Showing, Contact Alex Webel, Broker|Partner, Hall and Hall, LLP at 434-989-1199. The Lewis Family Farm is an exceptional organic farm raising grass-fed beef in New York's North Country. The property spans 1,117+/- acres, 850+/- of which are in pasture. The backdrop for the farm could not be any more picturesque, with Lake Champlain to the east and the 46 highest peaks of the Adirondack Mountains ("the 46-ers") to the west. The farm's operating strategy quite literally encompasses everything from the ground up, beginning with the soil. Drain tile has been installed under all 850+/- acres of pasture to eliminate runoff and soil compaction, the result is nutrient rich, resilient sod with root systems running several feet deep. In turn, this creates the foundation for the rotational grazing program. The accompanying improvements match the quality of the land and everything from the fencing to the barns to the six homes has been thoughtfully designed and well executed.

$4,250,337 • 1,089.83 acres
PG Quail Ranch is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-managed recreational and wildlife property encompassing approximately 1,089.83 acres in southern Coleman County, Texas. Under consistent ownership and dedicated wildlife management since 2009, the ranch has been carefully stewarded with a primary emphasis on Northern Bobwhite quail habitat and the preservation of a healthy, diverse native ecosystem.
The property offers a balanced combination of quality native habitat, established hunting infrastructure, functional improvements, and multiple surface water features. Its gently rolling terrain and diverse vegetation provide an ideal setting for wildlife management, recreational hunting, and private ranch enjoyment. With a thoughtfully designed lodging compound accommodating up to 16 guests, a well-maintained internal road system, and established hunting locations, PG Quail Ranch is equipped to accommodate family gatherings, hunting groups, and a variety of outdoor pursuits. An additional opportunity for future income is provided by an existing transmission line easement along the eastern boundary, with future scheduled payments conveying with the property.
LOCATION
Located west of Voss, Texas, in southern Coleman County, PG Quail Ranch offers a secluded country setting with convenient access to regional amenities and major Texas markets. Access is provided by a recorded easement extending approximately 1,930 feet north from County Road 322 along a fenced, 40-foot-wide lane to the ranch entrance. From the entrance, an internal ranch road continues approximately one-half mile to the primary lodging compound.
Approximate driving times include three hours to Fort Worth, two hours and 45 minutes to Midland, three hours to Austin, and one hour and 20 minutes to Abilene. The ranch is also located approximately 20 minutes from O.H. Ivie Lake, a renowned fishing destination known for its trophy largemouth bass and participation in the Texas ShareLunker program.
TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
The ranch features gently rolling topography with approximately 140 feet of elevation change across the property, creating subtle variation in terrain and habitat. Native vegetation is present throughout, with a diverse mixture of mesquite and prickly pear cover, open native grasslands, warm-season grasses, and an abundance of native forbs.
This combination of brush cover and open grassland creates the structural diversity and edge habitat essential to a productive quail property. The transition between woody cover and open areas provides wildlife with food, nesting opportunities, escape cover, and usable space throughout the ranch. The diversity of native plants also supports a healthy forage base for deer, turkey, and other wildlife.
Long-term management has emphasized maintaining native plant diversity and suitable habitat conditions rather than making extensive alterations to the natural landscape. The result is a well-balanced native range that supports wildlife while retaining the character and usability of a traditional Coleman County ranch.
WILDLIFE
Wildlife management is a defining feature of PG Quail Ranch. The property has been managed under a 1-D-1 wildlife valuation, with Northern Bobwhite quail serving as the primary focus of the management program. Consistent stewardship since 2009 has emphasized the native vegetation, structural cover, and habitat diversity necessary to support productive quail populations. Current management observations indicate strong quail numbers relative to the surrounding area.
Although quail have not been heavily pressured by hunting activities, the same habitat management practices have benefited other native game species, including whitetail deer and Rio Grande turkey. The ranch offers an established recreational hunting setup, with an internal road network and strategically distributed hunting stands averaging approximately one stand per 165 acres. This arrangement provides hunters with ample space and helps minimize interference between hunting locations.
Detailed historical wildlife records, including population and harvest information, are available upon request. For the buyer seeking a dedicated quail property, a recreational hunting ranch, or a long-term wildlife management investment, PG Quail Ranch is currently enrolled in the TPWD MLD Program and offers an established foundation built on years of consistent management.
IMPROVEMENTS
PG Quail Ranch features a thoughtfully designed improvement package built to accommodate recreational hunting, overnight guests, and ranch operations. The primary lodging compound follows a safari-style layout with four heated and cooled bunkhouses providing sleeping accommodations for up to 16 guests. A central cabin serves as the gathering and kitchen area, complete with a propane stove, while a covered porch connects the structures. A separate bathroom building offers full men’s and women’s facilities with showers, supported by a septic system and water softener. Outdoor amenities include a central gathering area with a fire pit and cooking grates, covered equipment storage, and an adjacent game-cleaning station. A covered concrete slab is in place for a future game cooler, and underground water and electricity are available for RV hookups.
The ranch also features a 36-foot-by-45-foot metal shop with a slab foundation, foam insulation, electric overhead roll-up doors, and 110-volt and 220-volt electrical service, providing functional space for equipment storage, maintenance, and general ranch operations. Combined with the established internal road system and distributed hunting locations, these improvements provide a comfortable and practical foundation for private enjoyment and organized hunting groups.
WATER
Water is provided by a private water well equipped with a pressure tank and an approximately 2,600-gallon storage tank. Underground water lines distribute water to the primary lodging compound, kitchen, bathroom facilities, shop, game cleaning station, and RV hookup area. A water softener serves the lodging facilities.
In addition to the well system, seven surface tanks are distributed throughout the ranch. Several have been cleaned out in recent years, and multiple tanks have demonstrated the ability to retain water through dry periods. These surface water features provide valuable resources for wildlife, contribute to habitat diversity, and enhance the property’s overall recreational appeal.
The combination of a private well, established water distribution system, and multiple surface tanks provides a functional water infrastructure for both the ranch improvements and its wildlife management program.
ELECTRICITY
Electrical service is provided by Coleman County Electric, with a meter serving the primary lodging area. The 36-foot-by-45-foot metal shop is equipped with electrical service, including 110-volt and 220-volt outlets, to accommodate a variety of equipment and maintenance needs.
Underground electrical service also extends to the RV parking area, providing convenient hookups for guests. Fiber-optic service is available at the ranch entrance, offering an additional utility advantage for buyers seeking connectivity at a rural property.
MINERALS
Mineral ownership is believed to be retained on approximately the southern 438 acres of the ranch, while no mineral ownership is believed to convey with the northern portion. Mineral ownership, title, and any associated rights or reservations should be independently verified by the buyer
