Guadalupe Bluff Ranch

Property Description: The Guadalupe Bluff Ranch is an approximately 135-acre riverfront ranch located on the banks of the scenic Guadalupe River. Featuring over 1,400 feet of river frontage, the property has numerous river access points including a large gravel beach area. The diversity of the ranch is remarkable, featuring thick hardwood forests and hilltops intersected by seasonal creek bottoms as well as native pastures and mesquite thickets. The lower portion of the property features towering pecan tree lined river bottoms as the terrain changes to more flood plain. The ranch also features a large wet weather creek that traverses the length of the property and deposits into the river on the ranch. This wet weather creek with its deep draws and ravines, as well as the large river frontage provide ample amount of natural water and sources year-round for native wildlife to flourish. The river frontage also allows for water to be pumped from the river for landowner domestic and livestock use. The ranch is ag exempt. Wildlife: The ranch has a healthy herd of whitetail deer that have been managed for the past 18 years through the Hamon River Bottom Wildlife Association program allowing for doe harvest through MLD permits. There are also numerous Rio Grande turkey, feral hogs, dove, and wintering waterfowl that frequent the property. The property has been lightly hunted over the years by the owner and has not been leased for hunting in over 20 years. Location: The ranch is located just a few minutes drive to the historic town of Gonzales, TX and about a fifteen- minute drive to Shiner, TX, home of the Shiner Beer Brewery. Gonzales is rich in Texas history and was the site of the famous Come and Take It cannon being fired and the first shots of the Texas Revolution. Just north of the ranch lies the old trail to Sam Houston Oak and the Braches House. This spot was used as a rest stop for Sam Houston and the Texan army on their journey to The Battle of San Jacinto. A short time later Santa Anna and the Mexican Army camped at the same oak tree and house on their march from San Antonio to The Battle of San Jacinto after the fall of The Alamo. The town of Gonzales holds a large festival in October called the Come and Take It Festival to celebrate the town's rich Texas Revolution history. DISCLAIMER The ranch is accessed via County Road 343 where it dead ends into the main gate. There will be a 60 ft wide easement road entrance shared with the neighboring 222-acre tract. The property boundaries and acreage of both tracts are not fenced and therefore adjustable to buyer's liking with seller's approval pending an offer. The entire combined tracts totaling 352 acres is also available for purchase if desired.
