Horns & Thorns Ranch - Dilley Tx

Horns & Thorns Ranch is an exceptional 735-acre, completely high-fenced South Texas ranch located near Dilley and spanning portions of Frio and La Salle Counties. This highly improved, turnkey hunting, wildlife-management, and recreational property has been thoughtfully developed to support outstanding whitetail deer and Axis genetics while providing the lodging, infrastructure, equipment, and amenities necessary to operate at an elite level. The entire ranch is enclosed by approximately five miles of eight-foot deer fencing with predator wire, creating a controlled environment for the property’s exceptional whitetail and Axis populations. Approximately 1.25 miles of privacy screening is positioned along the northern and northwestern boundaries. Two six-acre DMP pens are equipped with covered areas, underground predator wire, and hot wire, providing excellent facilities for an established deer-management and breeding program. The ranch’s impressive genetics, extensive feeding program, abundant water distribution, and complete high-fence system make it an outstanding opportunity for serious hunters, breeders, and wildlife enthusiasts. Water infrastructure is one of the ranch’s strongest assets. Five recently installed water wells include a deep commercial-grade well approximately 2,080 feet in depth, complete with a 5,000-gallon holding tank, secondary pumps with variable-frequency drives, and commercial iron filtration, carbon filtration, and water-softening systems. Four additional wells provide water throughout the ranch, including two solar-powered wells. Approximately ten miles of PVC waterlines distribute water to improvements, wildlife areas, livestock facilities, and five supplemented ponds. The property offers more than 20 miles of established ranch roads, providing convenient access throughout the 735 acres. Additional recreational amenities include a skeet-shooting facility and rifle range with stadium lighting, as well as a full-perimeter AI-supported security-camera system. Guest accommodations are extensive. The approximately 3,000-square-foot lodge features six bedrooms, three and one-half bathrooms, and updated appliances, including a washer, dryer, dishwasher, and water heater. Three additional approximately 800-square-foot casitas each offer two bedrooms and one bathroom, providing comfortable accommodations for family, guests, hunters, or ranch personnel. A 6,500-square-foot shop includes a four-bed bunkhouse, one and one-half bathrooms, a secured gun and tool room, walk-in cooler, ice machine, tools, welding equipment, air compressor, and other ranch-operating essentials. The approximately 1,600-square-foot skinning and processing facility is equipped with a walk-in cooler, ice machine, four overhead hoists, a rail system, and commercial grinder pump, creating a complete onsite game-processing setup. The ranch is supported by three independent electrical services, including two 400-amp services and an additional 100-amp service at the breeding pens. Improvements also include engineered and architectural plans, a foundation with plumbing and electrical infrastructure, a complete building package, and kitchen and bar appliances intended for an additional lodge.
