The owners have created a one-of-a-kind home and property. Their vision, design and artistic touches resonate throughout the property. They purchased the land in 2003. The ranch had no outstanding features at the time. Clearing cedar and unwanted brush opened up the beauty of the land. They found a trail to a hill top looking over a small creek. Once the cedar and brush were cleared, the home site was established. They then began their work on the live water constructing 4 dams, clearing and enlarging Honey Creek. Mother Nature shined through. The setting was perfect like a shining star with private, serene and tranquil vistas. One will experience the sound of nature, water flowing over a dam, beautiful sunsets and sunrises of manicured acreage. The architectural design utilizing the awesome setting, flows naturally from room to room to the outdoor living areas where breathtaking views will be the highlight of the day.

Once you set foot on Creel Creek Ranch, you will sense the heart and intention behind this special place and the beauty will overwhelm you! Its truly a taste of Italy in Fredericksburg.
