Maggers Outpost

Description

Maggers Outpost is a hidden gem made up of wild and rugged country. This remote ranch is a mile from public access, back off the beaten path, where the animals flourish. The land has outstanding topography with huge hills just North of Lime Rock Mountain. The oak-covered hills along the southern boundary provide views for miles in all directions with plateaus on top. Large mesquites lie in the valleys holding ample whitetail deer and providing abundant grass for bedding grounds. Scattered ponds yield sustainable water for the wildlife and cattle while also providing excellent bass fishing (see pics). Cedar Creek snakes along the western boundary as it flows along massive bluffs and through heavily wooded bottoms creating a naturally diverse habitat. Cedar Creek sustains deep pockets of water during the summer months with ample signs of local wildlife along the banks and outstanding turkey roosts in the towering trees. Sandy Creek runs through the eastern and most rugged portion of the ranch with 100ft of dramatic elevation on both sides of the creek. A completely encompassed knoll jumps up another 80 ft right in the middle of the property. The far northwest pasture contains some of the rawest lands around with giant, untouched oaks covering the deep creek. Maggers Outpost feels as if you are deep in the "Bush" yet the ranch lies just 5 miles west of Possum Kingdom Lake.

Broker's Comments -- This land is the definition of a secluded ranching paradise.  Maggers Outpost was purchased many years ago as land to run cattle but also keep the wild feel of Texas. The previous caretakers enjoyed the big, rugged hills and untamed nature of the property.  This acreage could make an excellent high-fenced game ranch with tons of natural character that hunters and nature lovers would love to explore.  As a low fenced ranch, this acreage hunts extremely well with a surplus of browse, bedding, and water creating an immensely diverse habitat. The feeling of being far away from it all is easily obtainable on this secluded retreat.
