Improvements:

There are no residential improvements on the ranch. There is a nice barn as you enter the property. The barn measures 30 x 40 inside the barn with a concrete floor. There are covered wings on each side that measure 20 x 40. These areas are currently used for storing hay. A small, covered shed is located in the center of the ranch along with an old antique single room home.

There are several feeders including protein feeders located on the ranch along with a couple of blinds. The perimeter is completely high fenced with entrances on two sides.

Water Features:

The other two are not currently in use but could be hooked up. There are 5 really nice tanks located in different areas of the ranch. They are stocked with fish and have had bait fish added in the past. The big attraction is the lake in the NW corner of the ranch. It is 5+ acres, stocked with fish and has beautiful views from all sides.

Hunting:

The owner has never allowed anyone but a few friends to hunt on the property. The ranch is completely high fenced and contains Black Buck antelope, Sika deer, Fallow Deer, Elk and Whitetail deer. The whitetails come from great genetics and will provide some giant bucks in the future. Turkeys and Hogs can also be found on the ranch. Duck and Dove hunting is good in season.
