Location
This 425 acre ranch is located less than 100 miles Southwest of Houston, 25 miles North of Edna, and 20 miles South of Hallettsville, in Lavaca County, Texas. It is located off of CR 14, and is accessed by a 1 mile 60-foot owned, fenced, gravel road, that will convey fee title with the land. There is also a 0.3 mile easement through the neighbor from CR 14A to access the property, although the owners have never used it.
Vegetation
The ranch is covered in hundreds of beautiful monster live oaks, and there are also many big pecan, elm, hickory, and sycamore trees along the Hardy’s Sandy Creek bottom. The native brush is typical of the Texas coastal plains, including post oaks, yaupon, and Texas beauty brush, among many others. There is a fenced (hog proof) food plot that is approximately 3-4 acres.
Terrain
The terrain is extremely diverse, ranging from creek bottoms and drainages to gently rolling hills. There is 1.4 miles of seasonal Hardy’s Sandy Creek along the East boundary line and 0.6 miles of the Bear Branch Creek, providing excellent habitat for wildlife in the bottoms. The ranch primarily has sandy loam soils throughout, with darker clay-type soils in the lower areas.
Hunting
