It has partial concrete floors and a private well is also located near the shop for water.

The ranch consists primarily of the cross timbers terrain, made up of rolling topography, deep draws, and open prairie meadows. This diversity gives the wildlife that call this ranch home everything they need. Dense populations of both whitetail and turkey known for this region roam this ranch daily. The established internal trail system makes navigating the farm easy, and will make accessing multiple stand sites simple. In addition to the lake, another large 2 acre pond offers good fishing and waterfowl opportunity. Lying within the flyway of Elk City and Hulah Wildlife Refuge/Reservoirs, the waterfowl will use these waters for loafing. 80 acres of the ranch is clean native grasses offering some grazing or hay production. Good workable fences run the perimeter of the ranch, in addition to a solid cross fence separating the north 83 acres into another pasture.

A large shooting tower overlooks the range with longer rage targets placed out from the tower.
