Owned and operated by the same family since 1945, Cypress Creek Ranch carries a rich legacydeeply rooted in Texas ranching history. The family was among the pioneers of exotic gamebreeding in Texas, beginning in the 1960s alongside iconic operations such as the Y.O. Ranch.Cypress Creek Ranch is a rare offering that combines dramatic topography, nine natural springs, four named waterways, exceptional wildlife genetics, and a superior road system. With more than eight decades of stewardship behind it, this is a rare opportunity to own the mostestablished, diverse, and versatile ranch in Real County.LOCATION:Situated in the heart of the Frio River Valley, often referred to as the "Swiss Alps of Texas," the ranch lies just 10 miles north of downtown Leakey off Highway 83. Access is via a picturesque three-mile drive along Cypress Creek Road. Once you leave the blacktop, the drive winds through towering cypress trees and crosses several live-water, low-water crossings over the crystal-clear waters of Cypress Creek. The ranch is one hour from Kerrville, one hour and 45 minutes from San Antonio, and two hours and 50 minutes from downtown Austin.LAND:The property unfolds across some of the most striking landscape in Texas, where wide viewsstretch over rolling ridgelines and drop nearly 300 feet into quiet, hidden valleys below. It feels less like a single ranch and more like a world of its own, layered, changing, and deeplyconnected by terrain.Sixteen miles of interior caliche roads have been carefully carved into the land, allowing access to every ridge and canyon by pickup. What once would have been difficult to reach is now open and connected, revealing the full scale and intimacy of the ranch in a way that is rarely seen in this part of the state. An on-site caliche pit keeps road maintenance straightforward and cost effective without dependence on outside contractors.Thoughtful cedar clearing along the roads and ridgelines has opened the landscape, letting light and long views return to the hills. The effort is visible everywhere you look, each cleared line and opened vista reflecting years of patient work.Cypress Creek, Walnut Creek, Marler Creek, and the West Sabinal River wind through theproperty, gathering life as they move through stone and valley. In the creek bottoms, pecan and oak trees thrive in the rich soil, while higher elevations transition into oak-covered hills with scattered cedar. The rocky creek beds create a natural refuge where wildlife moves freely and flourishes.From open ridgelines to hidden bottoms, rugged canyon walls and quiet creek corridors cometogether in a place that feels timeless, wild in spirit, yet thoughtfully revealed.HUNTING AND WILDLIFE:Cypress Creek Ranch is a turnkey hunting operation carrying some of the highest-quality exoticgenetics Texas has to offer, with 15 exotic species roaming the property.
