The property was once operated for hay production and cattle grazing but has now transitioned into ideal wildlife habit and consist of moderate to heavy brush throughout. A branch of Borrego Creek bisects the ranch creating big brush, and water impoundment opportunity. Currently there are 2 bodies of surface water, one is a acre tank and the second is a 3-4 acre lake.

The ranch is cross-fenced into 4 pastures, with the 2 northernmost pastures being in heavy native grass cover with re-growth mesquite and huisache. If additional grazing land was desired, it wouldn’t take much to get these 2 pastures back into +/- 27 acres of grass.
