Beaver Creek Ranch

Beaver Creek Ranch is a rare, legacy recreational and hunting property encompassing approximately 3,195 acres in the scenic hills of northwest Pittsburg County, Oklahoma. With nearly 5 miles of live water including 1.5 miles of South Canadian River frontage and 3.5 miles of Beaver Creek, this property offers a rich blend of native hardwood and pine forests, secluded valleys, and sweeping panoramic views of the South Canadian River bottom. Surrounded by other large, well-managed ranches, Beaver Creek Ranch provides an ideal sanctuary for wildlife and a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a diverse and well-watered tract of land in a highly desirable location. With minimal hunting pressure for over half a century, the ranch offers trophy-quality whitetail, waterfowl, turkey, and more, all in a naturally thriving ecosystem. Location Beaver Creek Ranch sits along the Hughes County line in northwest Pittsburg County, just 6 miles north of Highway 270. The property is easily accessed by well-maintained county roads and sits within reasonable driving distance of several metropolitan areas: 21 miles to McAlester 104 miles to Tulsa 117 miles to Oklahoma City 189 miles to Dallas Topography, Rangeland & Habitat The ranchs topography ranges from 660 to 1,040 feet, creating dramatic elevation changes and scenic overlooks. The northern section of the property features open meadows and mature hardwood stands along the South Canadian River, offering rich soils ideal for food plots and native forage. As you move south, the land becomes more rugged, transitioning to pine-dotted ridges and mountainous terrain seldom found in this part of Oklahoma. This dynamic environment supports a diverse wildlife population, aided by an exceptional amount of surface water: 18 ponds, several stocked for fishing and waterfowl 1.5 miles of river frontage on the South Canadian River 3.5 miles of Beaver Creek, a spring-fed, year-round tributary 7.5+ miles of seasonal creeks and wet-weather tributaries The landscape also features an extensive trail network, ideal for ATV/UTV riding, horseback exploration, and accessing remote hunting stands. Trails wind through pine-canopied ridges, giving the feel of a Rocky Mountain trail system right here in Oklahoma. Wildlife Beaver Creek Ranch is a true wildlife sanctuary. The property has had only limited access by the ranch manager and his family over the past five decades. As a result, wildlife populations are abundant and relatively undisturbed. Species regularly observed on the ranch include: Whitetail deer (trophy potential) Eastern wild turkey Ducks and other waterfowl Bobcats, coyotes, and wild hogs Occasional elk and black bear, especially along the river corridor The ponds and river also support fishing for bass, perch, and catfish, providing excellent year-round recreational opportunities. Agriculture While primarily recreational, Beaver Creek Ranch has multiple areas well suited for agricultural use, particularly: Pipeline rights-of-way and river bottom meadows, ideal for food plots or hay production Open ground suitable for wildlife attractants or seasonal grazing These areas add a productive element to the property without compromising its recreational value. Improvements There are no structural improvements of value, allowing a new owner the freedom to develop to their own specifications. Several ideal building sites exist with exceptional views of the river valley and surrounding ridges. Existing graveled lease roads and two-tracks provide strong internal access Untapped potential for creating additional trails and food plot sites Water Water is a defining feature of Beaver Creek Ranch: 3.5+ miles of Beaver Creek, originating on the propertys eastern boundary 1.5 miles of South Canadian River, forming the northern boundary 18 ponds distributed across the property 7.5+ miles of seasonal creeks and drainages, enhancing wildlife corridors Two historical water wells (one hand-dug and one drilled with metal casing) Water is accessible in every quadrant of the ranch, providing a reliable source for wildlife. Electricity An old electric line can be found near the river and has been retired. However, this line can be reactivated, per the local electric provider. Minerals No minerals are owned or available with the property. The ranch offering is for surface rights only. Area History Located within the historic boundaries of the Choctaw Nation, Beaver Creek Ranch was assembled in the 1940s by a geologist and physician who operated it as a cattle ranch for decades. After natural gas was discovered on the property, cattle operations faded and the land was left largely untouched, allowing decades of natural regrowth and wildlife resurgence to transform the property into the rich recreational landscape it is today. Neighboring properties range from 2,000 to over 5,000 acres, further enhancing the ranchs appeal as part of a region known for large landholdings and low hunting pressure.
