Duck Island is a 1,586 acre hunting and fishing oasis surrounded by the Red River to the north and a 390 acre private lake to the south. A gated entrance grants access to the only road in to this sportsman's paradise with a huge private lake, open fields, dense woods and scattered trees that lure every species of wildlife in north Texas and southern Oklahoma.The island was created when the Red River changed course from a south sweeping oxbow to a more direct path to the east. The result was an island that spans the Texas and Oklahoma border completely cut off from all sides. The channel carved out by the river became an expansive 390 acre crescent shaped lake with steep banks to the south and shallow banks on the island's shore. A road was built across the lake, 700 acres of the island was cleared and a pivot irrigation sprinkler installed using water from the lake to irrigate the fertile alluvial soils. The remaining 850 acres varies from riparian habitat to scattered trees and dense woods.
