Departee Creek Ranch

About this property

Departee Creek Ranch - A Rare Opportunity in Southern Independence County Productive land along the beautiful Departee Creek bottoms is a rare find, and Departee Creek Ranch offers a unique opportunity to own a versatile property with exceptional views, abundant wildlife, and endless potential. Conveniently located just off paved Blackland Road this picturesque ranch is ideal for farming, ranching, recreation, equestrian pursuits, or building your dream home. The property features recently constructed interior fencing, a half-acre pond, and access to Departee Creek, making it well-suited for a cow-calf operation, livestock grazing, and hay production. The fertile bottomland provides productive agricultural ground, while elevated areas outside the floodplain offer potential homesites and room for outbuildings. The ranch provides a peaceful, private setting with beautiful panoramic views and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors. There are no conservation easements encumbering the property, allowing you greater flexibility in its future use. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of game that calls this area home. Deer, turkey, quial, and mallard ducks have all been spotted on the property, with large timber tracts to the south and east providing additional habitat and enhancing the area's natural appeal. Whether you're watching wildlife from your back porch, enjoying an evening horseback ride while checking fences and cattle, or simply taking in the scenery, this property offers a true country lifestyle. For the avid outdoorsman and fisherman, convenient access to excellent fishing opportunities is another major advantage. The White River access at Oil Trough is approximately 5 miles away, and Salado Creek is about 9.5 miles away. The proposed Departee Creek Lake project is also nearby and could provide additional recreational opportunities and potential benefits to the area if it moves forward. As with much of the productive Departee Creek bottomland, portions of the ranch may be subject to flooding, making thoughtful livestock and land management important during periods of heavy rain. The combination of productive acreage, creek frontage, established fencing, wildlife habitat, and elevated ground creates a rare blend of agricultural utility and recreational appeal. Whether you're looking to expand your cattle operation, establish a horse property, enjoy a private hunting and fishing retreat, or build your dream home in a scenic country setting, Departee Creek Ranch offers the land, location, and flexibility to bring your vision to life. Opportunities to own this kind of property in Southern Independence County don't come along often. Call today for more information or to schedule your private showing!
