Caiman Ranch<br />

LaSalle County<br />

1,000-2,002± Acres | LaSalle County | Property ID: 1433103<br />

Originally part of the 250,000-acre Callaghan Ranch, the Caiman Ranch was in the same family from 1947 up until 2008. About 140 miles south of San Antonio,<br />

55 miles northeast of Laredo and 20 miles east of Encinal, this property is long known as the “Promised Land” for bruiser, whitetail bucks. Caiman Ranch carries<br />

the reputation as one of the best whitetail deer ranches in Texas. Deer taken from the ranch have consistently won local contests, including Los Cazadores, the<br />

Muy Grande and the Cola Blanca. This sportsman’s paradise also features lots of turkey, wild hogs, quail and dove. The ranch is fenced and cross-fenced into four<br />

pastures and features eight-foot net wire game-proof fening along the eastern boundary and barbed wire fencing along the remaining boundaries. All of the major<br />

South Texas brush species are represented in abundance, including guajillo, guayacan, granjeno, blackbrush, mesquite trees and Huisache trees, which provide food<br />

for wildlife, in addition to the excellent brush. Improvements include a 4,200-square-foot, Spanish-style hacienda with six bedrooms, five baths, concrete slab,<br />

stucco exterior, Saltillo tile floors, mostly nine-foot ceilings, deep porches and a large walled courtyard with a traditional outdoor fountain. Other buildings include a<br />

1,700-square-foot foreman’s house with three bedrooms and two baths, a 2,665-square-foot barn, a 1,640-square-foot shed and a 600-square-foot workshop.<br />

The Caiman Ranch also features plentiful water and excellent level to gently rolling topography. Ranging in elevation from 393 feet at the main entrance to about<br />

322-feet in the Los Olmos Creekbed, the ranch features soils with clay or loam surface layers, which are the key to the excellent, diverse vegetation. A 4,280-footdeep<br />

well out of the Carrizo Aquifer supplies water to the headquarters, one of two stock tanks on the ranch and various water troughs. Wet-weather Olmos Creek<br />

flows through the western section of the ranch, and holds pockets of water for extended periods of time. This is the perfect opportunity for an outdoorsman who<br />

desires to own one of the best whitetail deer herds in the state.<br />
