Description:

Location: The live water gem is centrally located in Bee County on County Road 202, which is 3.5 miles east of Beeville. The ranch has approx. .08 miles of frontage along State Highway 202, which is a four-lane paved road that is maintained by the county. State Highway 202 leads directly to Highway 181 into Beeville. The ranch is within close proximity to (32 miles) Lake Corpus Christi, and (43 miles) Choke Canyon Reservoir and State Park, famed for excellent fishing, including prize-winning bass and catfish. The property is also strategically located (56 miles) near the Gulf of Mexico and deep water ports. Public air facilities are available 7 miles W at the Beeville Municipal Airport (4,553 ft. paved runway). The nearest commercial airport is 57 miles S in Corpus Christi. The McKennon Ranch is accessed directly by a gate on State Highway 202. Topography & Vegitation: The ranch is gently rolling with elevations ranging from 160 ft. above sea level near the open areas and 180 ft at the northern areas of the ranch. The vegetation on the ranch is wonderfully lush South Texas brush. Approximately, 80 acres of a blend of three improved grasses is along the road frontage and around the homestead and pens. The property is heavily forested with majestic oaks and a wide variety of trees. The soils are primarily Papalote loamy fine sand and Orelia fine sandy loam. Water & Wildlife: The diverse vegetation and abundance of water on the ranch offers spectacular hunting, fishing and wildlife viewing with deer, hogs, bobcats and turkey inhabiting the property. This family-owned ranch has had little hunting over the years. The ranch is bisected by 4,525 ft of Poesta Creek. This is a year-round live water creek with crystal clear water where countless fish are clearly visible. Talpacate Creek runs the entire length of the eastern boundary of the property. This creek has water for most of the year. The areas along the creeks and where they merge are truly special and a rare find in Bee County. In addition to the creeks, the property boasts a large tank nestled amongst the trees and brush. The tank has a pier for fishing. A water well provides water at the homestead and trough. Exterior Improvements: The McKennon Ranch has all the improvements necessary to have a working ranch, live on the ranch year-round, or simply spend the weekends enjoying nature. Pens, chute, and a water trough are nestled under the shade trees near the homestead. A 365 sq. ft., two-bay carport with metal roof and 960 sq. ft. adjoining workshop and pole shed are located near the pens. A storybook gazebo is situated in the shade and is perfect for entertaining or relaxing on a quiet evening. A pasture is conveniently cross-fenced near the homestead.
