Size: 640 acres - Crooked Creek Ranch

Location: Located just west of Highway 283 in southern Callahan County on the Coleman County line approximately 18 miles north of Coleman, Texas and conveniently located only 30 minutes southeast of Abilene and just southeast of the small community of Oplin, Texas.

Terrain: Crooked Creek Ranch is an exceptional multi-use property for anyone looking for wildlife opportunities with beautiful creek frontage. The 640 acres has a nice mix of mesquite pasture dispersed with live oaks. The central feature of this beautiful property is Crooked Creek, winding its way through the center of the ranch. The beautiful limestone-lined creek forms several deep pools of surface water throughout the year. This is a great asset for wildlife and potential livestock. The under lying limestone beds also promote excellent stands of native grasses, perfect for livestock grazing and quail habitat. The winding creek also produces some nice elevation changes above the creek. Several of these locations would serve as ideal feeder/blind setups that allow great views of the heavily used game trails that crisscross the ranch. In addition, several of these spots could make ideal locations for new home construction with beautiful vistas of the rolling terrain. Nearby cultivated fields surrounding the Crooked Creek Ranch make it an ideal location for holding large numbers of Whitetail deer, turkey, and wild hogs. Two additional stock tanks provide some great fishing and waterfowl/dove hunting opportunities with the added benefit of surface water for livestock and wildlife. The perimeter fencing is excellent with convenient access at the end of an all-weather county road. Crooked Creek Ranch is a great recreational property with potential cattle ranching opportunities along a beautiful stretch of Central Texas.

Improvements: Good perimeter fencing, electricity nearby, gated pipe entrance, County Road 277 access, 2 ponds, and interior road system
