265 Acres SPRING LAKE RANCH, Bandera County

294 Deer Road

Tarpley, Texas 78883

Description: Spring Lake Ranch is a great live water property just minutes from Tarpley in western Bandera County. With spring-fed Hondo Creek frontage, functional improvements, diverse topography, and free-ranging exotics, this Hill Country offering is a must see.

Improvements:Overlooking the lake are 2 homes adjacent to each other which are in good condition; one is a 3 bedroom/2 bath and the other is a 2 bedroom/2 bath. Down from the houses is a newly constructed dock on the lake. There is 3-phase electricity along the southern boundary of the property and a good road system in place.

Water:The ranch has over 2,400 (570 both sides) of frontage along spring-fed Hondo Creek which has been damned up to create a beautiful 4.5-acre lake, offering year-round recreational activities. The lake has a strong spring at the bottom and according to the current and previous owner, has never gone dry. During wet times when flows are strong, there is a jaw-dropping waterfall at both the top and bottom ends of this lake. There is one domestic water well that services the improvements, and on the west side of the ranch is a deep high-volume well reported to be able to produce 70+GPM, which is very rare for this area and a significant asset to the ranch.

Land/Wildlife: The incredibly diverse topography has elevations ranging from 1,500-2,020 above sea level and offers some of the most stunning long-distance views the Hill Country has to offer. The highest elevations are on the north end of the ranch, and then as you drop down into the valley there is plenty of rolling usable terrain that gradually slopes down to the creek. The ranch enjoys a healthy population of native whitetail along with some free-ranging elk, axis, and aoudad.
