This property has been in the family for 80+ years and is currently being utilized for recreational use, cattle grazing, and corn farming. Due to its close proximity to Interstate 35 and the growing city of Waco, it is sure to be in high demand for current or future development. This ranch is one of the largest remaining contiguous tracts in the area and is already surrounded with nearby small acreage developments. However, due to the size of the property, its layout, and some remaining larger acreage neighbors, it still maintains a high level of privacy and tranquility.

Twin Creeks Ranch is located in the fast developing area near the newly formed Bois D'arc Lake and is one of the largest contiguous land holdings in all of Fannin County, Texas. The ranch boasts its own private, onsite +/-85 acre lake, along with numerous other managed wetlands and ponds, making it one of the premier waterfowl hunting properties in all the area. Spanning +/-933 contiguous acres, Twin Creeks Ranch currently sits as a testament to years and years of wildlife management, habitat enhancement and a deep respect for the land, water and their inhabitants. With that said, the property is also primed for commercial and/or residential development. Sitting only 1 hour from downtown Dallas and only 7 miles from the newly formed Bois D'arc Lake, and as the greater Dallas metroplex grows and activity at the lake increases, this property could be ripe for development of residential and/or commercial endeavors. The highlight of the property is the private +/-85 acre horseshoe shaped lake. The lake reaches depths of 15 to 20 feet and acts as a roost lake for the four engineered wetlands built on the lake peripherals. These timbered wetlands are designed for easy, drive up access to hunting blinds and for incredible shows of ducks decoying through the timber with their feet down. The wetlands are also spread out across the ranch to allow for hunting multiple days in a row without disturbing the roost lake. A number of differing variations of large, mature oak trees dot the landscape alongside cottonwoods, cedars, elm and sycamore trees. While some of the oak trees reach hundreds of feet into the air, the specific water oak variety plays a integral role creating the wonderful duck hunting as it produces a small acorn that the ducks crave. Each water oak tree typically produces 2500 pounds per year of these small acorns, which naturally flow into the wetlands and become a natural food source for migrating ducks. There are also grasslands, timbered creek bottoms, hay meadows and tilled food plots, all of which come together to make incredible habitat and some of the most scenic landscapes in the area. Keep your eyes peeled as you make your way through the electronic, passcode enabled security gate at the entrance of the ranch and head down the long gravel driveway as you are likely to see all types of wild creatures. A cozy and comfortable three bedroom and two bathroom home sits at the end of a one mile long driveway to the pinnacle of the lake and is set at a perfect angle to enjoy the sunrises and sunsets throughout the seasons. The home sets up perfectly as either a full time residence or as a weekend/vacation home. As you enter the home, your eyes immediately shift to the limestone that frames the wood burning fireplace anchoring the living area. The vaulted ceilings and the pine woodwork that flows throughout the home gives it a rustic cabin feel. The well appointed kitchen has a large island wrapped in limestone matching the fireplace, stainless steel appliances and plenty of cabinet space. The master suite, two spare bedrooms, hall bath and laundry room round out the home. Dependent upon how you arrange the home, you could easily sleep 6 to 8 people. Stepping outside, the home has two strategically positioned covered decks that allow for over-watch of the lake and its inhabitants. For safety, there is an underground concrete storm shelter and a whole home backup generator. Just like the rest of the property, the entire home is solid, clean and well designed and easy to manage and maintain from afar. The metal roof, concrete board siding and gated entrance allow you to utilize this as a second home without worry. Within 100 feet of the home is a flagstone firepit sitting area and a covered boat dock and fish cleaning station. The dock has a boat lift, counter and stainless steel sink and is just another in a long, long list of wonderful places to sit and take in the sights. The metal outbuilding has an insulted roof, concrete floor, bathroom and separate shop sink. The building measures 30'x50 with an extra tall overhead door, allowing you to park your truck inside or store all your toys, decoys and tools. The shop also features a game cleaning area. Seven high-end elevated box blinds are strategically positioned around the property overlooking feeders and/or food plots. The deer are plentiful. The entire property is fenced providing privacy, security and allowing for the management of livestock. The heart and soul of this ranch over the last generation has been it's recreational value and enjoyment. At it's baseline, the lake, wetlands and combination of dense timber and open grasslands provide excellent habitat for a whole host of wildlife, including waterfowl, whitetail deer, hogs, turkey, dove, small game and predators. There is always something in season and this ranch delivers. The ranch provides a wide variety of waterfowl opportunities ranging from Mallards and Wood Ducks gliding in-between the outstretched limbs of decades old oak trees to wide open-water goose hunts. Gadwall, Green Winged Teal Northern Pintail and a wide assortment of diving ducks are all seen on a regular basis across the ranch. The main lake on the ranch is home to both a resident and migrating Canadian Goose population. Again, the beauty of this property is that you can take advantage of all the differing waterfowl opportunities by hunting nearly every day of the season without scaring off the birds currently amassed on the ranch. The fun in and around the water continues with some awesome fishing too! The lake has been tailored with underlying structure and food for massive largemouth bass and large numbers or crappie. The management of this portion of the ranch has not been overlooked. The crappie are removed and consumed when caught to help control their population, but the trophy bass are photographed and released to allow for the top shelf genetics to continue to propagate throughout the lake. 10 pound bass are not uncommon with the largest one being a post-spawn 13.8 pound whopper. The lake has a hard bottom, which leads to clear, clean water. And, that clear, clean water allows for awesome top water action! Imagine watching a massive largemouth chase your lure across the top and elevating through the waterline! Whitetail deer are also highly coveted on this ranch. They are fed all throughout the year, both with static corn and mineral feeders and also via planted food plots. The owners have even created a specific sanctuary area that is not hunted or entered unless necessary. This allows the deer to feel safe and congregate on the ranch in big numbers. The ranch holds a number of nice sized bucks each year with only 1 to 3 having been taken off the ranch each of the past number of years. Hunting positions and options are plentiful with stands hung in various patches of dense timber and elevated, enclosed blinds placed overlooking water or food plots, you can always find the correct wind to hunt. It's always hog hunting season on this ranch. Part recreation and part land management tactic, the owners have made a consistent effort to shoot and/or trap hogs on the property. Combining entertainment and land stewardship is a great way to spend a day outdoors. The owners also host an annual early fall squirrel hunt for family and friends. The trees are filled with two types of squirrels, the Eastern Gray Squirrel and the Eastern Fox Squirrel. This makes for a fun, challenging and rewarding hunt! Cattle have been grazed on only a small portion of the ranch in recent years and that could easily be expanded, if desired. There is also a +/-30 acre hay meadow that is traditionally baled each season and multiple tillable areas totaling +/-4 acres and currently utilized as food plots to attract wildlife. Water rights and minerals rights are both set to transfer upon closing. Over the last decade, the owners have worked hard and put thought, planning and resources behind continual improvement of the property. The lake spillway has been updated and reconfigured to ensure it consistently holds the proper amount of water.
