5172 C R 321 El Manitou Ranch | ~650 Acres | Freer, Texas Welcome to El Manitou, a turnkey 650 acre high-fenced ranch in the heart of South Texas brush country. With over 110 feet of elevation change, the land offers dynamic terrain, sweeping views, and ideal wildlife habitat. Land & Habitat: The ranch is blanketed in protein-rich South Texas brush?Guajillo, Blackbrush, Sage, Mountain Laurel, and Mesquite?all thriving in the native soil. Extensive efforts have been made to restore native prairie grasses throughout. A well-maintained road system provides access across the property, with smaller trails cut between senderos, blinds, and feeders for convenient mobility. Multiple food plots and a robust feeding program (corn and protein) help support and sustain the wildlife population. The entire perimeter, approximately 5 miles in all, is under high fence, and active predator control (including trapping and fencing) has resulted in a healthy, thriving ecosystem. Wildlife & Game Management: El Manitou is home to exceptional wildlife, particularly whitetail deer with improved genetics. Bred does and select breeder bucks have been introduced to enhance the herd. A \~15-acre deer management pen with multiple pasture sections supports controlled breeding efforts. The ranch also boasts a strong axis deer herd (\~50 animals), an established oryx herd (20?30 animals), and abundant native game?turkey, dove, and quail. Water Infrastructure: The property is well-watered with three wells?two strategically placed in the pastures to supply tanks and troughs. Around a dozen are distributed throughout the ranch, ensuring dependable access to water for wildlife. A solar-powered well feeds a scenic pond on the northern end of the ranch. Improvements: Ranch headquarters include a comfortable 3-bedroom, 2-bath mobile home and a 70x30 hangar-style barn featuring a 10x20 air-conditioned shop and two full-size roll-up doors?perfect for equipment storage and workspace. Four RV hookups with water and power are also available, making this an excellent setup for entertaining, hunting groups, or guests.
