Upshur County - Catalpa Road, Big Sandy, TX
Overview: The 720 acre YMO Hideaway Ranch is located ~3.5 miles north of Big Sandy, Texas, with county road frontage on two sides and within the sought-after 2-hour drive time from Dallas. This high-fenced, picturesque wildlife haven boasts exceptional improvements, multiple spring-fed water features, and the rolling terrain characteristic of Upshur County. The towering native and planted timber on the western edge have recently been selectively cleared and mulched to accentuate scenic views and enhance sight lines throughout the ranch. Three live creeks traverse the property, a 16.77+ acre spring-fed lake/site is just steps from the backdoor of the ranch headquarters, two off-channel wetlands grace the eastern boundary making this a year-round highly improved recreational ranch.
Strategically placed on the western edge of the central pasture, where wildlife abounds, the custom ranch improvements include a ~6,400 sq. ft. party barn poised for a good time no matter the time of year. Steps away is the owner's log cabin retreat that rivals the best of the best of any ranch home setting. The accentuated views overlooking the lake/site from the back viewing deck pay tribute to the ranch's uniqueness and attention to detail. A recently remodeled guest home set just off the county road offers flexibility for additional weekend guests or could be an excellent ranch manager's home. The ranch also includes an equipment barn complete with a walk-in cooler and cleaning station for post-hunt activities, a/c shop and ranch office. Outback feeders and blinds, and numerous bridges to assist in navigating the improved internal road system are strategically located throughout the ranch.
Wildlife thrives here, offering prime hunting or viewing opportunities for whitetail deer, exotics, doves, turkeys, and waterfowl.
Location: The ranch is located in southwest Upshur County, ~3.5 miles north of Big Sandy, Texas, just east of the Wood County line, and within a desirable two-hour drive of Dallas. The property offers 6/10th mile of paved frontage along Catalpa Rd and 1/10th mile along County Road 368.
Proximity to Nearby Cities:
Hawkins and Hwy 80 - 8 miles
Tyler or Mineola - 27 miles
Interstate 20 - 21 miles
Terrain: YMO Hideaway is characterized by its varied topography, with three distinct ridges on the western portion, central portion and the far eastern end, accentuated by Big Sandy, Gin, and Glade Creek Valley. Elevations range from 350 to 450 feet above sea level and is well-drained.
The landscape features a diverse blend of open pastures, mature hardwood stands, and timbered areas, including 120 acres of coastal Bermuda. Native and planted timber have been selectively thinned and mulched on the western third of the ranch, leaving the native hardwoods intact, and reseeded with native grasses. This improves sight lines, enhances wildlife habitat, and accentuates the terrain and beauty of the land with a groomed look and feel. Pastures offer ample grazing opportunities and are complemented by mature tree cover and fertile river-bottom soils along the creeks.
Bottomland timber along Big Sandy, Gin Creek, and Glade Creek provides excellent wildlife habitat. The ranch is exceptionally private, with no visible neighboring structures. Overall, the terrain and land management create a balanced mix of productivity, recreation, and natural beauty.
Vegetation includes a broad range of native and managed hardwood species such as red and white oak, pecan, sycamore, black gum, hickory, dogwood, pine, cedar, black walnut, and persimmon, with willow, water oak, and river birch concentrated around riparian corridors.
Soils: The ranch features predominantly sandy loam soils, with portions classified as Lilbert and Bowie loamy fine sand. The wooded drainages consist of Cuthbert fine sandy loam, while the creek bottoms lie in mostly Mattex and Lulus fine sandy loam.
Water & Fisheries: The ranch offers an exceptional collection of water features that support recreation, wildlife, and year-round enjoyment.
16.77 acre spring-fed lake/site just steps from the back door of the ranch headquarters
Three live creeks:
Big Sandy Creek (southwestern corner)
Gin Creek (bisecting the property)
Glade Creek (Eastern Side of the property)
Two ponds measuring 1.6 acres and 1.18 acres
Two off-channel wetlands:
22.86-acre duck slough on the northeast portion
10.7-acre slough east of the house with wood duck boxes
The lake is located just steps from the ranch headquarters with clear water due to a sandy bottom and natural springs in the area. The creeks, lakes, and ponds offer excellent fishing opportunities, especially in the lake where fish structures are in place to enhance angling. Most, if not all, are fed by natural springs and seasonal tributaries, creating an interconnected system of natural sloughs and shallow wetlands that attract waterfowl in the fall and winter. These wetland areas also hold strong potential for further habitat enhancement if desired.
Note: The lake dam requires repair.
Wildlife: The ranch is high-fenced and stocked with a variety of exotic species, including elk, fallow deer, zebra and blackbuck. The elk herd features multiple bulls scoring 350 inches or more. Additionally, 25 whitetail deer with Wisconsin genetics were introduced and integrated into the native herd. A set of functional breeding and holding pens with piped water is in place to support wildlife management efforts.
Other species commonly seen on the ranch include various varmints, migratory ducks, geese, and doves, offering diverse hunting opportunities. Currently, the property is well managed by a full-time ranch manager with additional part-time staff.
Food Plots: Several areas have already been prepared for wildlife food plots. These locations are strategically placed for deer hunting and easy access, supported by six Outback timed protein feeders (2,000 pounds each) with corn feeders. Additional areas on the ranch could be readily converted into warm- and cool-season food plots with minimal effort. These sites would require plowing, planting, and possibly fencing to protect new growth from overgrazing. With productive sandy loam soils, they are well-suited for a variety of seasonal plantings.
Fences and Pens: The ranch is well-secured with reliable fencing, including a steel-piped high-fence entry gate displaying the ranch name. Over the past three years, more than two miles of high fence have been replaced. Functional breeding and holding pens with piped water are in place, with working pens located in the northern portion of the ranch, which requires some updating.
Access: The ranch is easily reached via a paved county road and features an extensive internal network of roads and trails. Approximately 12.1 miles of maintained trails and a half mile of all-weather ranch roads provide dependable vehicle and UTV access throughout the property.
The improved internal road system includes welded steel bridges with sunk piers over the creeks, ensuring reliable, all-season passage. This infrastructure supports a wide range of activities, including cattle grazing, hunting, hay production, and recreational trail riding.
Improvements: No expense was spared nor detail overlooked in creating the truly exceptional improvements at YMO Ranch. Every structure and feature reflects thoughtful planning, quality materials, and craftsmanship built to last for generations. From the strategic placement of buildings to the selection of premium fixtures, the ranch showcases high-end finishes at every turn.

Upshur County - 8576 Giraffe Rd, Gilmer, TX
Property Description: TYJ Ranch is a unique and versatile offering in Gilmer, Texas, located two hours east of Dallas. This beautiful and productive land is ideal for grazing cattle, hunting, and fishing.
Situated on a quiet county road, the property features an all-weather rock entrance road leading to a well-appointed 3,500 sq. ft., one-bedroom, one-bath barndominium with living room, kitchen and ample shop space. The front porch overlooks a pond and a large food plot, providing the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee while observing deer and other wildlife.
The ranch boasts a well-balanced mix of improved and native pastures, spring-fed creeks lined with giant hardwoods, mature timber stands, planted pine trees, and abundant water resources. Its rolling topography offers stunning views, multiple building sites for a main house or lodge, and excellent opportunities for wildlife habitat development and land stewardship.
Location: TYJ Ranch is located between Gilmer and Winnsboro, Texas, in northwest Upshur County. The property is less than two hours east of Dallas, 18 miles southeast of Winnsboro, and 13.2 miles from Gilmer. Positioned just east of the Wood County line, the ranch offers one mile of paved county road frontage on Giraffe Road. The ranch is also located just 8.5 miles from the boat ramp at Lake Gilmer.
Terrain: TYJ Ranch is defined by its rolling topography, featuring ridges on both the north and south ends of the property, with Caney Creek Valley running between them. The pastures are ideal for grazing and are sheltered by mature hardwood trees, while bottomland pastures flourish alongside the meandering Caney Creek.
The property ranges in elevation from 350 to 430 feet above sea level, with well-drained topography. A portion of the land along Caney Creek lies within the FEMA floodplain.
Well-maintained areas with mature timber and excellent tree cover enhance the property, while improved trails provide reliable access throughout the ranch. The blend of open pastures and wooded areas allows for cattle grazing, hunting, trail riding, and hay production.
Soils: The ranch features predominantly sandy loam soils, with portions classified as Lilbert and Bowie loamy fine sand. The wooded drainages consist of Cuthbert fine sandy loam, while the creek bottoms lie in mostly Lulus fine sandy loam. With proper lime and fertilizer applications, productivity can be maximized based on soil tests. Without amendments, the native soils do well for growing pine timber and Bermuda grass alike.
Water & Fisheries: Water features include seven ponds (0.140.77 acres each), a 2.12 acre lake, and a large, scenic 15 acre lake stocked with bass, bluegill, and other fish species.
The 15-acre lake offers excellent bass fishing, featuring deep water, standing timber for structure, and shallow flats ideal for springtime spawning. The smaller lake and stock ponds also provide good fishing opportunities.
The six strategically placed stock ponds provide water for cattle, livestock, and wildlife. Caney Creek bisects the property for approximately one mile, fed by natural springs and seasonal creeks. Over time, the creek has created natural sloughs and shallow wetlands that attract waterfowl in the fall and winter. These areas could be enhanced through water management and habitat improvements.
Wildlife: The ranch showcases a diverse habitat with managed and native hardwood stands, supporting abundant wildlife. Timber varieties include red and white oaks, pecan, sycamore, black gum, hickory, dogwood, pine, cedar, persimmon, with willow, water oak, and river birch along riparian areas. The property features a mosaic of native and improved pastures, creating a rich habitat for wildlife.
The property has been lightly hunted by the family, preserving its excellent wildlife habitat. The stock ponds and lakes attract large numbers of waterfowl, making for outstanding duck hunting. Several areas along Caney Creek are well-suited for wetland development to further attract waterfowl.
The ranch supports a thriving native deer population, with scattered oak motts creating a natural transition between feeding and bedding areas. Other wildlife includes hogs, coyotes, varmints, migratory ducks, geese, and doves, offering diverse hunting opportunities.
Food Plots: Several areas on the ranch can be easily converted into warm- and cool-season wildlife food plots with minimal effort. These plots would require plowing, planting, and possibly fencing to protect crops from overgrazing. The land is mostly clear, with sandy loam soils that support productive planting.
Cattle: The grazing rights are currently leased to a neighboring landowner with a similar-sized property and additional adjacent grazing land. Although no hay production is currently underway, the potential exists. The grazing tenant estimates the land can support approximately 60 animal units under normal conditions.
Pastures: The ranch consists of approximately six pastures, featuring a mix of coastal Bermuda and native grasses. This diverse landscape includes improved pastures, native timber, creeks, and uplands.
Fences and Pens: The perimeter fencing is in good condition, while interior fencing is in fair to good condition. There are working pens located in the north and south-central portions of the ranch. Two pens are in use, while one requires maintenance.

Property Description: TYJ and Cypress Pines Ranch present a versatile offering in Gilmer, Texas, just two hours east of Dallas. An outdoorsman's paradise, this property is ideal for cattle grazing, hunting, fishing, weekend country escapes from the city, or a place to make your permanent residence.
Situated on a quiet county road, the ranches feature all-weather rock entrance roads leading to two well-appointed residences: a 3,500 sq. ft. one-bedroom, one-bath barndominium with ample shop space and a 1,223 sq. ft. two-bedroom, two-bath cabin that sleeps eight. The barndominium's front porch overlooks a pond and large food plot, while the cabin's back porch looks out over the main lakeboth perfect settings to enjoy your morning coffee while watching deer, waterfowl, and other wildlife.
The land offers a well-balanced mix of improved and native pastures, spring-fed creeks lined with giant hardwoods, mature timber stands, planted pine trees, and abundant water resources. Rolling topography provides stunning views, multiple building sites, and excellent opportunities for wildlife habitat development, land stewardship, and year-round recreation. An extensive trail system winds through the ranch, perfect for hiking or UTV exploration.
TYJ and Cypress Pines Ranch combine productivity, natural beauty, and outdoor recreation in one remarkable East Texas destination.
Location: The ranch is located in northwest Upshur County, between Gilmer and Winnsboro, Texas. It lies 18 miles southeast of Winnsboro and 13 miles from Gilmer, just east of the Wood County lineand within a desirable two-hour drive of Dallas. The property offers one mile of paved frontage along Giraffe Road, over a half mile along Fox Road, and a third of a mile along Horse Road. It is also only 8.6 miles from the public boat ramp at Lake Gilmer.
Terrain: TYJ and Cypress Pines Ranches are defined by rolling topography, with ridges on both the north and south ends of the properties and the Caney Creek Valley running between them. Elevations range from 330 to 430 feet above sea level, with well-drained terrain throughout. Portions of the land along Caney Creek lie within the FEMA floodplain.
The landscape is a diverse mix of open pastures, mature hardwoods, and timbered areas. Improved pastures provide excellent grazing opportunities, complemented by mature tree cover and bottomland pastures along Caney Creek. Well-maintained trails offer reliable access across the property, supporting activities such as cattle grazing, hunting, hay production, and trail riding. Hilltops add further diversity with both native and planted pine, bottomland timber stands along Caney Creek and its tributaries, and excellent habitat for wildlife. Together, the terrain offers a balance of productivity, recreation, and natural beauty.
Soils: The ranch features predominantly sandy loam soils, with portions classified as Lilbert and Bowie loamy fine sand. The wooded drainages consist of Cuthbert fine sandy loam, while the creek bottoms lie in mostly Mattex and Lulus fine sandy loam. With proper lime and fertilizer applications, productivity can be maximized based on soil tests. Without amendments, the native soils do well for growing pine timber, Bermuda grass, and food plots alike.
Water & Fisheries: The ranch offers an impressive array of water features, including seven ponds ranging from 0.14 to 0.77 acres, a 2.12 acre lake, and two larger lakes: a 15 acre lake and a 13 acre lake, both stocked with bass, bluegill, and other fish species.
The 15-acre lake is especially scenic and well-suited for bass fishing. It features deep water, standing timber that provides excellent structure, and shallow flats ideal for springtime spawning.
The 13-acre lake, located near the home, is equally scenic and serves as a true bass factory. Its abundant habitat supports baitfish and fingerlings, making it highly productive. This lake also contains a 0.25 acre island in its upper portion, which provides wildlife habitat, nesting areas for waterfowl, and a fun destination for kids to explore, camp, and enjoy the outdoors. On the east side of the lake lies a 2 acre wetland specifically designed for waterfowl, complete with wood duck nesting boxes that highlight the property's focus on wildlife stewardship.
In addition to the larger lakes, the smaller lake and stock ponds offer good fishing opportunities. The six strategically placed stock ponds also provide dependable water sources for cattle, livestock, and wildlife.
Caney Creek bisects the property for approximately 2.6 miles. Fed by natural springs and seasonal creeks, it has created natural sloughs and shallow wetlands that attract waterfowl during the fall and winter months. These areas hold strong potential for enhancement through water management and habitat improvements.
Wildlife: The ranch features a diverse habitat with managed and native hardwood stands, including red and white oaks, pecan, sycamore, black gum, hickory, dogwood, pine, cedar, black walnut, and persimmon, with willow, water oak, and river birch along riparian areas. Native and improved pastures create additional wildlife habitat.
Lightly hunted by the family, the property maintains excellent wildlife densities. Stock ponds and lakes attract abundant waterfowl, offering outstanding duck hunting. Several areas along Caney Creek, particularly the west-side bottomland pastures, are ideal for wetland development to further enhance waterfowl habitat.
The ranch supports a thriving native deer population, with scattered oak motts providing natural transitions between feeding and bedding areas. Abundant mast-producing trees and native forbs hold deer year-round. Other wildlife includes hogs, coyotes, varmints, migratory ducks, geese, and doves, providing diverse hunting opportunities.
Food Plots: Several areas on the ranch have been prepped for wildlife food plots. These plots are strategically placed for deer hunting and easy access. Several additional areas on the ranch can be easily converted into warm- and cool-season wildlife food plots with minimal effort. These plots would require plowing, planting, and possibly fencing to protect crops from overgrazing. These areas would be prime for both warm and cool season plots, with sandy loam soils that support productive planting.
Cattle: The grazing rights are currently leased to a neighboring landowner with a similar-sized property and additional adjacent grazing land. Although no hay production is currently underway, the potential exists. The grazing tenant estimates the land can support approximately 60 animal units under normal conditions.
Pastures: The ranch consists of approximately eight pastures, featuring a mix of coastal Bermuda and native grasses. This diverse landscape includes improved pastures, meandering openings amongst native hardwoods, creeks, and uplands.
Fences and Pens: The perimeter fencing is in good condition, while interior fencing is in fair to good condition. There are working pens located in the north and south-central portions of the ranch. Two pens are in use, while one requires maintenance.
Access: The ranch is easily accessible via paved county road, with an extensive internal road and trail system allowing for easy travel throughout the property. Approx. 5.4 miles of maintained trails provide UTV access across the entire ranch.
Main Home: A 1,223 sq. ft. home, constructed in 2017, sits overlooking the 13+ ac lake. It includes two bathrooms, two bedrooms, two lofts with double bunk beds, kitchen, and a large living area, making it an ideal weekend getaway or primary residence. The house sleeps 8 in total providing plenty of room for kids or grandkids. The home has a large, covered porch on the back that overlooks the lake and surrounding landscape where you can sit in the evenings and watch the bass chase dragonflies and waterfowl fly in and out of the lake.
Barndominium: A 50x70-foot, 3,500 sq. ft. barndominium, constructed in 2020, sits between two scenic ponds. It includes one bathroom, one bedroom, a kitchen, and a living area, making it an ideal future guest home.
Barns: The property includes a 20'x20' equipment barn, a second equipment barn, a 12'x20' lean-to, and a commodity barn. They provide ample storage for boats, ATVs, hunting blinds, tools, tractors, and other equipment.
Easements: The ranch has one gas line easement and an electrical easement supplying power to the barndominium. There is also a small electric easement supplying power to the cabin and improvements on the west side as well.
