The ranch consists primarily of gently sloping open grassland flats divide by multiple small draws that provide a diverse habitat of larger brush and trees crucial for wildlife habitat. The old Headquarters at Riata East Ranch and existing house provide day one utility as a working ranch with the necessary infrastructure in place to expand and build your own ranch home or hunting lodge. Power is available across multiple areas of the ranch allowing for a flexibility in use of the ranch and future subdivision and development potential. The existing road system across the ranch is in good shape and allows for plenty of access for hunting and exploration.

Habitat and Wildlife

The ranch is situated at the convergence of three biologically distinct eco-regions in Texas; the Texas Hill Country to the east, the Chihuahuan Desert to the west, and the subtropical Tamaulipan Brushland to the south, creating unique wildlife habitats.

The propertys browse and grasslands are in good condition, a result of the ranchs evolution from a historic sheep and goat operation into todays recreational uses of hunting. Native grasses, forbs, browse, brush, cacti, and trees not only provide excellent habitat for game species such as deer, turkey, quail, and dove, but also for non-game species such as Texas horned lizard, neotropical songbirds, golden eagles, fox, ringtail cat, mountain lion, and many other mammals and birds.

Recent use and management have been focused on improving and growing both mule deer and whitetail deer populations, which are tremendous. The population is about 50/50 for these two deer types and with the good cover, this is some of the best Blue Quail hunting in Texas.
