The Dodson Ranch is a recreational property offering outstanding trophy opportunities in Northwest Texas. While the location is very private, it is easily accessible via Hines Road, just two miles west of FM 680 and twelve miles north of Highway 287 between Childress and Quanah. The property is only four miles from the Red River, a great travel corridor for wildlife in the area. The ranch headquarters is positioned in the southeastern portion of the property, far enough off the road to provide a secluded setting perfect for enjoying the beauty of Northwest Texas. The camp house is a 14 x 40 manufactured home with covered front and back porches and an attached carport for vehicle protection. Beyond the front porch, a fire pit and towering bull mesquite create a nice, shaded oasis to view wildlife at the nearby water trough and feeder. This turnkey property also features two equipment sheds fully equipped for ranch duties, including a UTV, an electric trail cart, and a 50 HP tractor with several implements. Additionally, a 40 freight container provides secure storage for other items on the ranch. Exterior fencing is in excellent condition, with pipe-gated entrances along the southeast and northeast boundaries. Groundwater is supplied to the ranch by a dependable water well that is plumbed to the cabin and a water trough available for wildlife. A small pond just west of the headquarters provides another source of water and acts as a draw for wildlife from miles around. The property features diverse vegetation, including plum thickets and thick stands of shinnery oak, where Bobwhite quail thrive among the abundant acorns and plums produced in the sandy soil. A nice ridge and wet weather creek bottom run the entire length of the property from south to north and continue all the way to the Red River, four miles away. This natural funnel for wildlife offers amazing views over the ranch. Hunting is exceptional for whitetail deer, turkey, and wild hogs, with the occasional mule deer and exotic species passing through. Low hunting pressure and management-minded neighbors allow deer to reach their full potential on the Dodson Ranch. The center of the property has been carefully managed for the last 14 years as a sanctuary area, untouched by human contact. The current owner has documented the quality of deer the Dodson Ranch produces each year, including bucks exceeding 160 in annual harvests. Multiple feeding stations are situated throughout the property and include conventional and protein feeders with comfortable hunting blind setups. Eight food plots have also been established and maintained on the property, growing crops extremely well in the sandy loam soil. The opportunity for a ranch of this size with so much to offer is seldom seen; the Dodson Ranch is a great recreational property waiting for you to explore!
