  •  Located 5.8 miles from Cotulla, Texas 
  •  1.4 Miles of Nueces River frontage 
  •  A very diverse habitat 

Situated near Cotulla in La Salle County in the heart of the Golden Triangle, the 432.73± acre Nueces River Ranch offers 1.4 miles of Nueces River frontage as well as superlative wildlife habitat and well-appointed improvements.

The river, which runs along the east side of the ranch, has yet to go dry. Year-round water is an undeniable asset in the arid Brush Country. The riverbank has many “cuts” providing access to the flowing water.

Elm Creek bisects the ranch before feeding into the Nueces. The creek has created two unique oxbow lakes that are prime waterfowl habitat.

In addition to the Nueces River and Elm Creek, the ranch, which boasts high- and low-fenced hunting, features plentiful water. It has four water wells (two solar and two submersible) as a cased hole that could be brought online for a fifth well. The main pond, which is maintained at a constant level with a submersible pump, is stocked with bass, catfish and perch.

The terrain is diverse ranging from flint rock and sandstone hills to rich bottomlands dotted with large live oaks. Elevations range from 430 feet above sea level to 360 feet above sea level. A good road system makes the entire ranch easily accessible.

The vegetation is equally varied creating a natural buffet for the wildlife that call the ranch home. Wildlife species white-tailed deer (160″ – 170″ deer have been harvested), axis deer, waterbuck, wild turkeys, dove and quail. Waterfowl pass the winter on the ranch.

The current owners have meticulously developed this recreational ranch into a unique oasis of South Texas living. Nueces Ranch is anchored by a three bedroom/three-and-a-half bath custom-built home that measures 3,600± square feet and is complemented by a swimming pool. The original three bedroom/three bath ranch house was recently remodeled, providing a welcome haven for family and friends. 

A 2015 double-wide mobile home could be used for staff or overflow housing. There is also a one-bedroom bunkhouse that has been recently remodeled.

Other ranch infrastructure includes a 1,600 square foot metal building that houses the saloon and gun room, two large equipment barns with enclosed shop spaces, a covered parking area and walk-in cooler. And for added fun, the ranch also has chipping and putting green.

Nueces River Ranch is a well-appointed destination for year-round outdoor recreation and relaxation.
