There is also a creek on the northwest tract that flows into a beaver pond and slough. Several of the ponds provide great fishing for largemouth bass. There is also the possibility to build additional ponds or lakes on the property.

The pasture grasses provide excellent food sources for the deer while the timber breaks provide safe bedding areas. During the winter ducks migrate into east Texas and use Turner Lake very heavily. Duck hunting is also very good on the beaver pond and slough. Wild hogs also frequent the timber breaks and will feed in the pastures at times. Dove hunting is also very good on the ranch.
