Description:
The 2,345 acre Jayhawk Creek Ranch in Mitchell County, Texas, has terrain that closely resembles the South African home of many of the exotics on the ranch. With this in mind, the property offers an ideal setting to stalk these trophy exotics and monster whitetail. Conveniently located in the heart of the west-central Texas prairies is an exceptional hunting ranch and lodge with a vast array of exotics and top-notch infrastructure, ready for extraordinary hunts from day one.
Location:
Situated 15 minutes from I-20 and Colorado City, the ranch is roughly midway between Abilene and Midland/Odessa, making it convenient to an extensive regional customer base. There is also a commercial air service in both Abilene and Midland as well as an airport for private planes that is just 15 minutes away. In addition, the ranch is a little over three hours from DFW.
Landscape:
The elevations of the ranch range from 2,000-2,100 ft from multiple peaks, just above the banks of the Colorado River. The native flora and fauna of the region consist of wild china, live oak, willow cedar, black walnut, and pecan trees across the property, as well as plentiful high-protein brush species for the wildlife.
Water:
This land has over 3 miles of both sides of the Colorado River and over 2 miles of both sides of Jayhawk Creek. Moreover, 2 solar water wells and 2 electric water wells supply the improvements, tanks, and troughs, and two 1,000 gallon storage tanks. There is also a large 4 acre lake behind the main lodge that is spring-fed and stocked with a variety of fish. Lastly, a 1.5 acre pond behind the casita is stocked with large catfish and is supplied by overflow from one of the storage tanks.
Wildlife:
Unparalleled in diversity, this ranch also comes stocked with a spectacular lineup of native and exotic wildlife. Improvements to support the wildlife population include two large barns totaling 3,800 sq/ft, several breeding pens ranging in size from a 1/2 acre to 20 acres, and numerous food plots scattered throughout the property.
Improvements:
Impeccable improvements on the ranch welcome guests to ultimate comfort and luxury. The 5BR 5,000 sq/ft main lodge includes a professional kitchen, full bar, fireplace, and a pool table. A covered carport area offers parking for all vehicles. This covered area also has a skinning rack with a winch and rail system for rolling game into the cooler. Nearby is the 2BR buffalo lodge with a spacious living area. There are several other homes for guests, guides, and foremen. Space for relaxation and entertainment abound, including a fire pit, expansive porches, and a lighted skeet range, making guests time after the hunt just as enjoyable as their time out on the land.
