Property Description
The Dos Arroyos Ranch has been owned by the same family for over 75 years and is being offered for sale for the first time. The ranch represents a tremendous opportunity for the recreational hunter or investor with its extensive highway frontage and access to both Pinto Creek and Sycamore Creek. Dos Arroyos Ranch has a gently rolling terrain with an elevation that ranges from 900 feet about msl at Pinto Creek to a high point on the west end of the ranch at 1,056 feet above msl. One of the outstanding features of Dos Arroyos Ranch is beautiful Pinto Creek which bisects the east end of the ranch with nearly 2.7 miles of frontage on both sides the creek. Pecans, live oaks, and mesquites line the creek with dense areas of underbrush. The balance of the ranch is very scenic country and includes several dry-creek bottoms with plenty of brush cover. In addition to native grasses, brush and tree species include live oak, blackbrush, guajillo, guayacan, mesquite, huisache, lotebush, coma, granjeno, Texas persimmon, cenizo, whitebrush, and many others. In addition to being bisected by beautiful Pinto Creek the western end of the ranch is also bisected by Sycamore Creek with nearly a mile of frontage on both sides of the creek. Goat Creek, which is a wet-weather creek, bisects the ranch in a meandering north/south fashion and is lined with big trees and dense underbrush. There are several small ponds scattered throughout the ranch. In addition to the creeks the ranch also includes two water wells one of which is an electric pump and the other is a windmill. The ranch includes a small hunter’s complex with a double wide mobile home with large canopy, several storage buildings, and a game processing shed. These structures are in fair condition and can be included with the sale. The ranch is perimeter and cross fenced with fair quality low livestock fencing. The ranch also has a good network of roads that are in good condition and well maintained. The Dos Arroyos Ranch has an abundance of native wildlife including whitetail deer, both Blue and Bobwhite quail, turkey, javelina, dove, fox, and bobcats. This area is known for producing high quality trophy native whitetail. The ranch is located about 30 minutes east of Del Rio. There is a good airport in Del Rio, Texas with commercial airline access from most cities. Amistad Lake is a large lake on the Rio Grande, Pecos and Devils Rivers that was said this year to be the best bass fishing lake in the United States; this is a beautiful lake with clear water. Del Rio, Texas is a thriving town with 40,000 people and offers everything that you would want. This is a surface only sale with no minerals to be transferred. Due to the significant amount of highway frontage the Dos Arroyos Ranch has good potential for being subdivided into 3 or 4 smaller ranches. Call for details.
