Property Description
Located in the highly sought-after central region of Osage County, this property sits in an area well-known for its outstanding white-tailed deer habitat and productive ranch country. The combination of diverse vegetation, rolling topography, mature timber, native forage, and abundant water resources creates a property capable of supporting both quality wildlife habitat and quality grazing opportunities.
The landscape is characteristic of the Cross Timbers ecological region, where sandstone-derived soils support a distinctive mosaic of native tallgrass prairie and post oak/blackjack canopy. This transition between timber and prairie provides abundant edge for wildlife while maintaining valuable grazing resources.
Land and Habitat:
The native grasses and forbs provide high-quality forage for livestock and excellent wildlife habitat. The property’s combination of prairie and timbered areas creates a diversity of plant communities, allowing a landowner to manage the property for cattle production, hunting, or a combination of uses.
Five ponds provide dependable water for both livestock and wildlife. Over 1 mile of new fence has been built on 3 sides of the property within the last 5 years, providing improved containment of livestock.
The terrain on King Ridge is impressive. A prominent ridgeline traverses the center of the property from north to south, creating approximately 140 feet of elevation change, providing excellent views of the ranch and beyond. The unique combination of ridges, draws, timber, native prairie, and water creates natural travel corridors utilized by white-tailed deer and other wildlife species. These physical character¬istics provide opportunities to strategically locate hunting blinds and tree stands, trail cameras, food plots, livestock facilities, or additional water improvements.
Location:
The property’s location offers an attractive balance of accessibility and seclusion. Situated just off State Highway 99 between Hominy and Wynona, King Ridge is convenient to regional communities while maintaining a private rural setting.
The proximity to amenities makes the property accessible for weekend recreational use while remaining practical for a full-time ranching or agricultural operation. Nearby Pawhuska offers many fine dining opportunities, shopping, rodeos and much more. Lake Skiatook and Lake Keystone are just a short 35-minute drive from the property and offer fishing, boating and many other excellent outdoor recreational activities.
