Entrance: The ranch boasts a private entrance featuring a black all-pipe entryway. A well-maintained rock road lined with dense brush and mesquite trees leads to the private residence situated on a hill overlooking the ranch and food plots.

Vegetation: The ratio of tree cover to open land is three-quarters covered by hardwoods and one-quarter comprising open cultivated food plots. Mature mesquite, hackberry, cedar, forbs, and browse species dominate the tree cover, creating exceptional wildlife habitats.
