Baccala Ranch

The 5,956-acre Baccala Ranch is on the market for the first time in 130 years. Having been owned by the same family since 1893, the ranch has been a working cattle ranch for over a century. The terrain varies in elevation between 1,000 feet to 2,800 feet and is characterized by timberland, flat ground, rolling hills, steep cliffs, and rocky areas. From various lookout points, Mt. Shasta and the surrounding areas are visible in beautiful detail. Currently, the ranch is leased out to run about 150 pair for the season. There are three hunting cabins, a bunkhouse, and outbuildings; some are in need of TLC. Water comes from several springs, wells, and three creeks. In addition to running cattle, the ranch is an excellent recreational property, teeming with wildlife. The area is known for trophy deer hunting and the ranch is leased out for hunting. The Lassen National Forest borders the northern part of the ranch for even more recreational activities. Most of the ranch is in the Williamson Act, which lowers property taxes.PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS:5,956.06 total acres5,692.06 acres in the Williamson Act for lower taxesIn the same family since 1893; first time for sale sinceA working cattle ranch for over 100 yearsRuns about 150 pair for the seasonCurrently leased out to graze cattle & for huntingExcellent recreation with deer, turkey, quail, and doveThe area is known for trophy deer huntingHunt, horseback, ATV, or hikeThree Creeks: Zimmerman Creek, Pine Creek (blue line creek), & Campbell CreekAdditional water: several springs & wellsImprovements: three hunting cabins, a bunkhouse, and outbuildingsSome buildings will need TLCBorders the Lassen National Forest on the northern part of ranch
