These creeks and draws and the wooded areas that buffer them offer good wildlife habitat and hunting opportunities.

For the avid waterfowl hunter, the lake offers a seasonal stop for wintering waterfowl. The lake is fed by a good system of branches and draws that wind their way through the property for ~1.6 miles. The northeast portion of ranch fronts along Meridian Creek for ~743' offering additional fishing opportunities, swimming, canoeing/kayaking, exploring, and is a well-traveled and secluded corridor for wildlife. A stock pond is also in place providing an additional surface water source for livestock and wildlife.
Ranch Home: Perched on a hillside overlooking the lake and much of the ranch and surrounding country to the east and south, sits the exquisite 4,380+/- sf 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom two-story ranch home. Originally constructed around 1991, the home recently underwent a complete renovation within its stone faade and has been tastefully and thoughtfully brought back to life with unique combinations of both modern and rustic finishes. Inside the welcoming entry you will find the spacious great room which also encompasses the formal dining room with beautiful hardwood floors, large picture windows, and ~20' ceilings with unique timber beams.

For the chef in the family, the kitchen will be very attractive as it is equipped with high-end stainless-steel appliances, gas range, beautiful quartz countertops, a large farmhouse sink, and custom cabinetry. Just off the kitchen is a large breakfast nook with a private sitting area where family and friends can warm in front of the uniquely designed fireplace with a southwestern flare. Down the hall a home office/study is in place, and just beyond here you'll find two guest bedrooms with a wonderful Jack and Jill bathroom with soaking tub and large shower. Near the back of the home is a thoughtfully designed mud room with benches and cabinets for storing your gear following a hunt or your work clothes after a good day of rewarding ranch work. Upstairs, you'll find a large master suite which is a private retreat in and of itself with a spacious bedroom and wonderful ensuite.

Bosque County - Valley Mills, TX
Cotton Willow Ranch represents one of the most remarkable ranches available in the state of Texas. Located in central Texas just 25 minutes from Waco, and within 90 minutes of Dallas and Austin, the ranch boasts ease of access for the majority of the population of the state. Situated in the highly desirable "Top of the Hill Country" Bosque County landscape, vast elevation changes create sweeping vistas overlooking miles of gin clear creeks, multiple ponds, and seasonal springs. A mixture of awe inspiring old growth hardwoods and forests along with hundreds of acres of native prairie create a scenic blend across the landscape that provide habitat for wildlife along with grazing areas for livestock.
The ranch is 1,239 pristine acres that make the springs and both live water creeks run as clear as you have seen. There are no old buildings, no trash, no junk. The location of Cotton Willow Ranch is genuinely rare for Texas. The rainfall here is still substantial enough to run live water creeks and support multiple springs along with bluebonnets and indian paint brushes that blanket the ranch in the spring time. The ground is forgiving rather than rocky, allowing you to comfortably drive and walk across nearly the entire property. A more northerly position in the state creates a true four-season experience: milder summer heat than many Texas regions and winter conditions that can even bring snowfall (frequently for Texas standards).
The history of thoughtful cattle management on the property has promoted preservation of the native habitat, which has allowed wildlife to flourish and the ranch to maintain populations of Bobwhite quail, and wild turkey as well as ample white-tailed deer, hogs, and other native wildlife for the area. Premium metal deer stands and feeders are thoughtfully positioned throughout the property in locations worthy of a magazine spread. Current Infrastructure includes well-planned pastures, 8 ponds, and 20 miles of roads, complemented with a set of metal cattle pens for managing the grazing. Cotton Willow has everything you need for a true Texas ranch with a generational legacy.
LOCATION
The Ranch features a truly ideal central Texas position, within a 30 minute drive of the property you can be in downtown Waco, or on the water at Lake Waco or Lake Whitney. With such close proximity to the city of Waco, any and all amenities are present for the convenience of Cotton Willow Ranch.
The ranch's advantageous location within 1.5 hours of the DFW and Austin metropolitan areas significantly enhances the property's value, offering excellent accessibility and investment potential. Billions of dollars in recent investment towards energy and data infrastructure in this locale also make the area an attractive location for the long term land investor.

TOPOGRAPHY, RANGELAND & HABITAT
Cotton Willow Ranch experiences over 100' of elevation change from the properties high ridges where one can see for miles over the Bosque hill country, to the creek bottoms where century old hardwoods look over the clear running waters of Willow and Cottonwood Creeks. In between these ridges and bottoms are hundreds of acres of productive native prairie dotted with oaks and juniper and featuring diverse assemblages of native grasses and forbs. Trademark species like Little Bluestem that tell the story of proper rangeland management provide cover for threatened species like the Bobwhite quail while continuing to maintain soil health into the future. In the springtime this property becomes a Texas postcard; dozens of native flowering species including Bluebonnets, Indian Blankets, and Winecups cover the property in a colorful mosaic.
The property's internal pasture system has allowed cattle to be effectively rotated across a majority of the ranch to prevent overgrazing and foster conservation of the prairie. With minimal revamping, the systems and infrastructure in place will allow a new manager to continue the intentional management of this unique piece of Texas.
WILDLIFE
Thanks to a history of proper management, The Cotton Willow Ranch is also home to an extensive list of charismatic native species including self-sustaining populations of Bobwhite Quail, Texas Horned Lizards, Rio Grande Turkeys, and White-tailed deer.
Migratory birds including doves and waterfowl frequent the ranch. Mourning doves are seen regularly and are in large numbers during their migration times. Waterfowl use the ponds on the ranch throughout the winter being close to the Brazos river flyway.
IMPROVEMENTS
Cotton Willow Ranch affords a rare opportunity to build custom improvements on a premium piece of land in Central Texas. There are many spectacular home site possibilities including several on high ridges that face the setting sun overlooking the creek and vast amounts of the ranch.
Current improvements include perimeter and interior fencing, a set of high volume working pens. 4 premium metal 5x8 deer stands, and 12 deer, turkey, and quail feeders spread throughout the property.
WATER
This unforgettable ranch is named for the two limestone-lined creeks, Willow Creek and Cottonwood Creek that bisect the property and converge near the southern boundary. Crystal clear waters pour over waterfalls and meander around bends for a total of ~2.2 miles creating countless picturesque scenes. Walks along the banks of these creeks often reveal fossils and arrowheads to the keen observer. Feeding into these creeks are an assemblage of springs, several of which could be potentially targeted to develop larger bodies of water on the property.
In addition, 8 ponds are strategically dispersed, providing reliable water sources for both livestock and wildlife in each section of the property.

Located in the highly desired Norse Historic District of Bosque County that was originally settled by Norwegian immigrants in the late 1800s, this authentic frontier farm and ranch homestead has continued to be a working operation since that era. Properties in this region reflect a blend of historical significance and agricultural utility, making them unique representations of Texas Norwegian heritage. Ellingson Farm has been owned by the same family for the past 20 years, and under their stewardship, the farm has been meticulously cared for to maintain its historical significance. The farm is characterized by the stunning, diverse Bosque County topography with dramatic elevation changes, box canyons, rock outcroppings, native grasses, cultivation and good surface water. The highest elevation points on the property overlook the improvements and farmland situated in the mouth of a valley, creating a serene and secluded homestead.
The land is characterized by plentiful mature trees, including huge live oak motts, some of which are irrigated. Various types of natural grasses provide forage, and numerous seasonal springs bubble up from the ground and wind through the farm. Two ponds and one seasonal pond create adequate surface water for livestock and wildlife, and a 2-inch water line supplies the 2 ponds to control water levels. The elevation ranges an impressive 120 ft and supports varied vegetation and shelter options for abundant wildlife including all native species. There has been minimal hunting during the past 20 years of ownership.
The homestead consists of 2 small houses, a livestock barn, a shop building with an office, cultivated ground, and numerous examples of hand constructed historic buildings and features. One of the most unique features on the farm is a historic native limestone cabin built by Norwegian immigrants to house a dugout-dwelling relative, Jacob Ellingson, who had fallen ill but unfortunately died before he had a chance to inhabit the cabin. Jacob was the first Ellingson to immigrate to Texas and Bosque County to create a new opportunity for relatives to follow. The rock walls and fireplace and axe-hewn rafters provide an amazing glimpse into the local history and craftsmanship. Other unique features include the hand-crafted masonry water storage tank, the hand-constructed rock retaining walls near the houses, and the stacked rock retaining wall along the livestock pens. There are also several small wooden barn structures.
Two houses onsite offer flexibility for multi-generational living, weekend housing for a family ranch, or guest housing for family and friends. The first home is a 2BR 2B turn-of-the-century frame house, originally built as a parsonage and relocated to this farm. The 2nd home, referred to as the Ellingson Farmhouse, is a 2BR 1.5B home that is documented in the Bosque Historic Registry as well as the National Historic Registry. Other improvements include a metal horse barn with stalls and a 30x72 metal shop building with attached 30x16 farm office that has electricity, water, and covered equipment parking. A co-op water line runs through the property, and the 3 existing water meters will transfer at closing.
No pesticides or chemicals have been used by the current owners. The 15-acres of cultivated ground are used to grow alfalfa, wheat, oats, and other crops. Five acres are under pivot irrigation and 10 acres are irrigated by 100-ft circumference impact sprinklers. The water source for irrigation is a 2nd Trinity water well that produces 45-50 gpm and has a 2-inch outlet and a 10hp pump.
The farm is currently used to raise big horned Dall sheep, and the property includes a set of pipe working pens. The farm is fenced for livestock with low fencing in good condition along the perimeter as well as cross-fencing. There is also a quail restoration plan in progress. An established road system allows access throughout the property and around the boundary fencing.
This farm has coveted end of the road seclusion, and it is mostly bordered by large-acreage neighbors. There are no transmission lines, no pipelines, no floodplain, and no wind or solar leases. The Seller believes they own 100% of the minerals which will convey with a full price offer.
