Rusk County - County Road 453, Laneville, TX
Some places just have a special feel to them, and this 21.5-acre tract in Laneville, TX is one of them. Mature timber, natural springs, large spring fed creek, manicured hay meadow, picturesque area-this kind of land that rarely changes hands.
Water is one of the rarest and most valuable features on any piece of land, and this property has it in abundance. A large, spring-fed creek runs along the back, with massive mature hardwoods blanketing this area, providing a completely open forest floor. If that wasnt enough, there are two natural springs that start right on the propertysomething you almost never find. One of them is especially unique, bubbling up from the roots of an old oak tree and producing a large steady flow of crystal clear, natural water. One could easily dam this spring area to create a stunning clear blue spring fed lake off the hay meadow perimeter.
The land itself is a perfect balance of open space and shade. About two-thirds is manicured hay meadow, ideal for grazing, cutting hay, or just enjoying the wide-open views. The remaining one-third is mature timber, but instead of being packed into one spot, the trees are spread out in natural pods, creating sections throughout the property. This layout makes the land feel much bigger than 21.5 acres while also providing privacy and habitat for wildlife.
The large mature timber along the spring and the creek in the back has game sign all throughout. Even though this property has fields, it could easily support a first class hunting camp, with a mid-west type of hunting feel.
Located in the quiet ranching community of Laneville, only 15 minutes from Henderson TX and 40 minutes from Tyler Tx, this is a place where good land stays in families for generations. Its rare to find a property with this much character, history, and natural water sources all in one spot. If youre looking for a piece of land that is truly special, this is one worth seeing in person.

Bandera County - Bandera, TX
Sitting on the headwaters of Myrtle Creek in a ruggedly beautiful box canyon in Bandera County BW Ranch offers live water and some of the most magnificent views in the country. The 1874.83-acre ranch, which fronts FM 2828, is just 12 miles from Bandera, 17 miles from Kerrville (and its airport with two runways up to 6,000 feet), and 42 miles to San Antonio.
Land, Wildlife and Water
In Texas, it is rare for a ranch to include an expansive stunning viewshed as a primary asset. The BW Ranch showcases 24 peaks, expansive valleys and views that stretch to Bandera, Kerrville and Medina.
The ever-changing landscape is enhanced by diverse vegetation. Cypress trees surround the main lake. Pecan trees shade the valley. Live oaks and Spanish oaks dot the native grasslands. A lone bull mesquite shades the pavilion. Cedar has been aggressively cleared and prescribed burns have been used to clear and reinvigorate the land. As a result, desirable native Hill Country browse provides a nutritious buffet for wildlife.
Whitetails that benefit from enhanced genetics, Rio Grande turkeys, dove and bobwhite quail are native to the ranch. A herd of bison, numbering upwards of 50, graze the flats and hillsides. Auodad sheep along with blackbuck antelope, axis, fallow and sika deer also call the ranch home. Other wild denizens include coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions and a host of other non-game species and songbirds.
Two Longhorns also roam the ranch. Ones horns measured 13.5 feet the last time a tape was put to them. Those numbers place him in world-record territory.
Year-round Myrtle Creek brings life-giving crystalline water to the property. It feeds nine dammed ponds, making water for wildlife easily accessible throughout the ranch.
An 8-acre spring-fed lake, stocked with largemouth bass enhanced by Florida bass genetics, blue cats, blue gills and sun perch is arguably the recreational focal point. Anglers have landed some bass that tipped the scales at more than 14 pounds. A boat house, with a bathroom, a fish cleaning station and a pontoon boat, ensures that family and friends can make the most of the clear, inviting water.
The ranch boasts second spring-fed lake, which is smaller. It, too, is stocked with desirable fish for additional angling fun.
Living
The three-bedroom/two-bath ranch house reflects its setting. Native limestone defines the exterior and interior flourishes including the impressive fireplace. Built with an eye to simple, comfortable elegance, the bright airy home combines soaring ceilings, shiplap, warm wood accents, Saltillo tiles and oversized windows. In the sunroom, which overlooks a pond surrounded by a bounty of native vegetation, the line between outside and inside is seemingly invisible.
In addition, the homes open floor plan includes a well-appointed kitchen, living room and trophy room. It's aesthetic and design invite gathering.
Building sites, with exceptional views, abound. The possibilities for creating a livable masterpiece built to the new owner's taste and specifications are limitless.
A nearby open-air pavilion, reminiscent of old-time Hill Country dance halls, takes the party outside. The pavilion, which follows the architectural theme of the main house, includes a full kitchen and large fireplace.
The comfortable three-bedroom/two-bathroom caretaker's quarters with a full kitchen and large porches, front and back, is situated nearby. Currently, it is used for employee housing, but could host overflow guests.
Infrastructure
More than 25 miles of improved roads stretch to the highest peaks and most far flung corners providing complete, easy access.
The main barn (approximately 40 x 60), which is constructed from metal and insulated, features four horse stalls, an office with a shower, a tack room and a tool room. Twelve-foot-tall doors on both ends keep equipment access simple.
An equipment barn (approximately 20 x 45) with a game cleaning station that includes winches, running water and a walk-in cooler rounds out the infrastructure.
The Opportunity
The Hill Country is known for its live water and breathtaking scenery, but its rare to find a ranch that has both with plenty of elbow room. The fact that BW Ranch is also conveniently located to small towns and San Antonio makes it one of one.

Briscoe County - Silverton, TX
Location: The Evans Ranch is located 18 miles East of Silverton TX off of Highway 256 and is 9.5 Miles North of Turkey TX off of Highway 70. The ranch has access from 2 State Highways and is located approximately 281 Miles from DFW (4 Hours and 21 min) 116 miles from Lubbock (1 Hour and 46 min) 93 Miles from Amarillo (1 Hour and 25 min)
Property Description:
The Evans Ranch, once known as Burson Lake, stands as one of the most breathtaking and historically rich ranches on the Texas market today. Spanning 9,586 deeded acres with an additional 160 acres of state land, this ranch is a testament to the rugged beauty and timeless history of the Lone Star State. Having only had two owners since 1940s, this property offers an unparalleled legacy of stewardship and conservation.
Ranch History:
Tony Burson of Silverton purchased the Slaughter Ranch in 1949 at the age of 47. A man of many trades, Tony farmed, ranched, worked as a banker, and even owned a Ford auto dealership with his father and brothers. In 1952, he constructed a dam on the ranch creating what became a 25-acre lake. This lake, fed by a blue spring hole, served as both a water source and a crossing over Bluff Creek.
The lake quickly became a community treasure. Willard Hudson of Clarendon and Dusty Taylor leased and operated the lake, which they named Burson Lake. It featured cabins, a snack shack, and recreational amenities, opening to the public for approximately 20 years. During this time, it was a beloved spot for families and visitors alike.
Tony eventually retired from the cattle business, leasing the ranch to Bill Cushing and later to Mike Smith. In 1973, Tony passed away, leaving the ranch to his nieces and nephews in the Burson family. By the 1980s, the lake had silted in, and the family made the difficult decision to cut the dam.
Don Burson, Tony's only nephew, leased the ranch for many years, maintaining its legacy until the property was put up for sale in the early 2000s. In 2004, the ranch found a new steward in Bill Evans of Kress, Texas. The Burson family couldnt have been happier, knowing someone of Bills character would care for the land they cherished.
From 2004 to the present, Billy and his family have worked tirelessly to enhance the ranch. In 2014, Billy rebuilt the dam and cleared the silt from the lake, restoring it to its former glory. He also expanded the existing home overlooking the water, creating a haven for his family and guests.
One of Billys most significant contributions was solving the ranchs water challenges. When the property was purchased, it lacked a reliable well. Billy struck water at the north end of the ranch near the Highway 256 entrance and installed miles of underground poly pipe. This system delivers water to approximately 18 troughs across the ranch, ensuring an ample supply for both livestock and wildlife.
Now at 90 years old, Billy and his wife have decided its time to pass the torch. They hope another family will take on this historic property, continuing its legacy of love and care for generations to come.
Water Features:
At the heart of the ranch is an impressive 9-mile stretch of the Little Red River, boasting consistent water flow year-round. Bluff Creek and Oxbow Creek also traverse the property, while multiple natural springs, a 25-acre spring-fed lake, and several stock ponds provide an abundance of water. The stock ponds are stocked with Catfish, Bass, Bluegill, and Crappie, making the ranch a fishermans dream. Additional water resources include:
One well with a storage tank, piped to 18 strategically placed cattle troughs.
Two solar wells, one of which is shared with neighbor but does lie on the ranch providing reliable water sources across the property. There is an additional windmill that blew down
but could easily be restored to working condition.
Cattle Operation & Grass Improvements:
The Evans Ranch is exceptionally equipped for cattle operations with:
A capacity to comfortably support 200 mother cows.
Four strategically placed sets of cattle pens for efficient livestock management.
Well-maintained pastures that have been thoughtfully grazed, and grubbed to preserve
native grasses.

Medina County - Hondo, TX
Two Creeks Ranch, 758 acres located just 30 minutes west of San Antonio in Medina County, is a memory-making, live-water destination designed to make family, friends or business associates feel right at home in natural Texas.
When guests enter the simple, but elegant front gate on County Road 451 they are struck by the oak-lined, chip-sealed Knippa stone driveway and the flanking irrigated pecan orchard with more than 500 productive trees. Landscaping throughout was designed and installed by the late Marc Tellepson and the late Mark Scioneaux, both of Houstons famed Tellepsons Landscaping Company. The ranch has additional frontage on County Road 455.
By the time guests arrive at the main compound featuring the two dogtrot lodges that reflect Texas pioneer heritage and the adjoining renovated barn and primary gathering space known as the Party Barn, they know theyre somewhere special.
The Land
Nestled in an ecological transition zone, Two Creeks, as the name implies, offers the beautiful live water and legacy oaks of the Hill Country and the varied brush that marks superlative wildlife habitat in South Texas. In addition to majestic live oaks, the ranch is shaded by native pecan trees in the bottomlands of Hondo and Verde Creeks and old-growth bull mesquite throughout.
The Water
The creeks border the ranch on two sides. Verde Creek, which is a year-round creek, courses through the ranch for 1.7 miles on the east, providing private access to both banks. Hondo Creek runs along the south border for about 1.85 miles.
A 7 acre lake that measures about 22 feet at its deepest point is stocked with bass, perch and forage fish. It is peanut-shaped with a jutting peninsula, which maximizes bank frontage and allows for plenty of angling fun. In case guests prefer to swim, carefully stacked native rocks create the perfect place to launch into the lake.
Groundwater is also plentiful. Two Creeks Ranch has two center pivots supplied by an Edwards Aquifer irrigation well with 60 acre-feet of transferable Edwards water. There is an additional well on the property.
The Wildlife
Two Creeks Ranch has been managed primarily for doves, but whitetail deer, feral hogs, free-ranging exotics abound. A variety of varmints, small game and non-game species also call the low-fenced ranch home.
The Lifestyle
Guests can sharpen their shooting skills and pass an enjoyable afternoon at the five-stand skeet range outfitted with six movable trap houses. Once the smoke has cleared, they can congregate at the nearby Gun Room, a 945 square foot gathering space that includes a wet bar, drink coolers, a 72-inch TV as part of the indoor sitting area, gun lockers, WiFi and a built-in sound system.
For those who prefer to be outdoors, a 1,850 square-foot covered porch area, located between the Gun Room and the skeet range, is the perfect spot. Guests can sit in the shade of two ancient live oaks as they enjoy conversation and a cool breeze.
Accommodations

Large ranches adjoin the CH Ranch on three sides, creating an oasis of elbow room and privacy in one of the states most sought-after locations.
A gravel road leads from the private easement to the main improvements. Ranch roads provide access throughout the ranch for either a truck or ATV.
The Land, Water and Wildlife
The terrain gently undulates creating hidden nooks and crannies. It's not a property that shows all its secrets in a single glance. The ranch's elevation ranges from 1,300 feet at the lowest point to 1,755 feet at the highest point atop Solomon Mountain. Points throughout the ranch provides magnificent views as the Hill Country unfolds in eye-catching vistas.
Most of the cedar has been cleared from the front section, showcasing the heritage live oaks that dot the property and line the two seasonal creeks. In the creek bottoms, willows are also part of the mix. The back portion of the property retains the feel of untouched native habitata combination of cedar, mesquite and oaksthat provide food and shelter for wildlife. In their season, wildflowers blanket the strong soil in a vibrant, multi-hued quilt of color.
The ranch, which has not been hunted in 30 years, is home to white-tailed deer, turkey and feral hogs. Non-game species include ringtail cats, armadillos and rabbits. Coyotes sing to the moon.
A former coastal Bermuda hayfield provides a large clearing that could be reinvigorated as farm ground or repurposed as a wildlife food plot. A mesa, situated at the back of the property, delivers the chance to climb and enjoy a view that stretches all the way to Enchanted Rock. An old, stacked stone German fence decorates the mesas top and bridges the areas vibrant past and the 21st century.
CH Ranch has two impoundments. The first lake, which sits at the convergence of two seasonal creeks, encompasses an estimated four to five acres during average rainfall years. The waterbody, with an expansive concrete dam, has been stocked with baitfish, so the first phase of building a productive fishery is complete.
The lake's perimeter is shaded by huge live oak trees. The dappled shade and cool water create a park-like oasis that beckons people to relax and reconnect, with natureand each other.
The second smaller pond ranges between two and four acres during average rainfall years. In addition to the surface water, the ranch has four water wells.

The home, featuring about 1,700 square feet of comfortable, well-appointed living space, features a 43 x 15 screened porch perfect for enjoying family and friends.
The detached 12 x 12 laundry/storage room is also constructed from rock. During the recent remodel a raised 24 x 12 deck was built over the top, creating a covered BBQ alcove underneath.
The Main House, a massive barndominium, is the ultimate expression of style and practicality. The three-bedroom/two-bath limestone-clad home, measuring about 3,000 square feet, is the focal point. With a spacious kitchen, living room and eye-catching limestone fireplace, the house is designed to make friends and family feel right at home.

HISTORY: The current ownership acquired the initial 441+/- acres in 2004, followed by additional land acquisitions, forming Spring Mesa #1 (the northern half of the ranch). Years later, an additional 1,587+/- acres were added, creating the southern half of the now 3,173+/- acre Spring Mesa Ranch. The land was originally heavily wooded with cedar, and native grasses were in poor condition. Under the vision of Texas oil and gas pioneer Dick Lowe and Dr. John Merrill, former head of TCU's Ranch Management program, the ranch underwent a careful transformation to restore and revitalize the ecosystem. Restoration efforts began with the end goal of taking this ranch back to the 1800s. Through meticulous land management, invasive cedar trees were removed, revealing hidden springs, native grasses, and hardwoods allowing the land to flourish.
Once part of the vast 50,000-acre Cross Bar Ranch, Spring Mesa Ranch is steeped in history, with reminders of the past still scattered across the ranch. Notable historical features include:

Tom Green County - San Angelo, TX
Lee, Lee & Puckitt is very honored and excited to represent the Wilson Carlsbad Ranch to the ranch market!
Listing Broker: Lane Puckitt
Location:
This beautiful ranch is located approximately 12 miles outside of San Angelo, Texas off of US Hwy 87N then north on March Road (paved all except to the last mile approximately but all Tom Green County maintained) then approximately mile on an easement (caliche road) to the ranch entrance.
Terrain:
This gently rolling northern Tom Green County and southern Coke County ranch is extremely scenic! Lots of big, deep soiled valleys with many seasonally dry creek beds rising up to the large hillsides with killer views. Much care has been given over the years to mesquite, cedar, and prickly pear control. Also, the interior roads are considered good. This gorgeous property is completely HIGH FENCED with high-tinsel wire/steel posts. Most of the fences are considered in very good condition with many built within the last few years. Lots of cover for deer and other wildlife and considering our dry range conditions, this ranch has good range conditions.
Improvements:
The only house on the ranch is used by hunters. It is a small concrete cinder block structure with comp shingles, small kitchen & bathroom. There is a very large barn used for storage of ranch equipment, and supplies. Nice barn that was built several decades ago but still in fair condition. A large set of steel corrals for working livestock is next to the barn. There is another set of corrals towards the center of the ranch.
Pastures & Water:
This working ranch is divided into six main pastures, and three traps. There is also some deer holding pens and a soft relief trap for deer. All of the deer improvements are located in the most southern pasture. There are reportedly 9 solar wells and 2 windmills. This is considered to be a very well-watered ranch.
Wildlife:
Being a HIGH FENCED RANCH, the whitetail deer hunting is considered to be very good with many years of management. As previously mentioned, the south pasture has been used for years to grow and raise some high genetic deer with bucks in the 200 + class. Occasionally the owners have released some of these better genetic deer to the other pastures to improve the bloodlines within the whole ranch. Lots of turkey, dove, and even some quail! Another option would be to add some EXOTICS in the future.
Minerals:
Some minerals negotiable.
Comments:
Very seldom does a ranch of this size and quality in this excellent location being near San Angelo EVER come on the market!! This is an opportunity to purchase one of the PREMIER RANCHES in West Texas which has been in the same family since 1914!! That my friends is very special!

The ranch drains well, with over 2 miles of seasonal Saddle Creek meandering through the ranch, as well as several miles of unnamed creek bottoms and natural drainages. Upland areas contain limestone and claystone outcroppings, while lower-lying areas feature soils such as Nuvalde, Mereta, Rowena Clay Loams, and Reap-Leeray complex. Vegetation is primarily mature mesquite trees with native brush, scattered cedar, several live oaks, and large cedar elms in the creek bottoms.
Water: The ranch has ample surface water, consisting of 9 stock ponds, the largest being 1.5 acres in size. Saddle Creek, which traverses the property from south to north, holds an additional 2-3 acres of water in several pools long after rains, adding to the already abundant water sources for wildlife.

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.
A distinctive aspect of the ranchs riverfronts are the conveniently located put-in and take-out points offering easy access to water activities. To the north is the Grape Vine access point while the Live Oak access point lies to the south, both capable of driving a sports car to the rivers 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 AND RANGELANDS
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 canyon lands 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 AND 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 worlds most awe-inspiring phenomena during the October migration.
ROADS
Access is one of the most crucial requirements for a property of this size. 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 days fishing or distance apart. These top-notch roads make the ranch usable at a level that is hard to replicate.
HOMES AND 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, 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 floorplan and nearby small barn used for hunting vehicle storage. This home is conveniently near the 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 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 ranchs 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.

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.

Culberson County - Van Horn, TX
Within its 27,740 acres, the Horse Canyon Ranch in Culberson County showcases the diverse, rugged beauty of far West Texas. Historically, used as a working ranch, the low-fenced property is a recreational paradise that can be accessed from both I-10 and Highway 90. The Lobo-Garren Ranch Road, a well-maintained county road, transects the property linking both major thoroughfares and good dirt ranch roads crisscross the ranch.
While the Horse Canyon Ranch has plenty of the wide-open spaces that define the region, it is only 20 minutes from Van Horn, the county seat, and just over an hour to Marfa, one of Texas most beloved destinations. The ranch is nestled between the Jeff Davis Mountains and the Wiley Mountains. With its expansive views and desert climate, it is reminiscent of Arizona.
Because the landscape includes both desert rangelands and craggy, but accessible mountains, the ranch is home to pronghorn antelope, blue quail and some Gambels quail as well as mule deer, aoudad sheep, free-ranging elk and the occasional mountain lion or black bear.
For the past couple of years, the ranch has implemented a protein feeding program using approximately 22 feeders scattered across the property. Working with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the ranch team participates in aerial wildlife surveys.
Historically, used as a working ranch, the property has been rested from cattle grazing for the past few years. Horse Canyon Ranch is a recreational paradise with agricultural infrastructure including three sets of working pens. The ranch is divided into nine main pastures and three traps. The cattle operation could be easily reinstated as an additional income stream and range management tool. In good years, the carrying capacity is 300 to 350 head of mother cows.
In arid areas, water is crucial. The ranch has five working wells, with a mixture of electric submersible and solar pumps, and two non-functional wells. Water distribution to meet the needs of wildlife and livestock has been an on-going effort. The ranch is home to an extensive network of piping, water troughs, storage tanks and wildlife guzzlers.
The main headquarters includes a three-bedroom/two-bathroom ranch house with a full kitchen, living room and central heat and air, a barn, a storage barn and a tack room as well as one of the three sets of working pens.
Horse Canyon Ranch offers a lifestyle as big as the West Texas sky. Here you can get away from it all and rediscover the peace that comes from elbow room and the grandeur of nature.
