Rolling Waters Ranch
1800 Acres
OVERVIEW:
Rolling Waters Ranch, the name says it all! This ranch is one of the finest Live Water Ranches in the Texas Hill Country with 7/10 of a mile on both sides of a spring fed creek that begins on the property. The springs flow hundreds of thousands of gallons of water daily and there are 3 concrete dams that back up an enormous amount of water up to 14 feet deep, enough for fantastic fishing, jet skiing, or just floating on one of the crystal clear lakes. This amount and quality of cold clear spring water is priceless!
