The Stulting Ranch / 596.54 Acres in Gonzales County

We are excited to present a true Texas recreational and cattle ranch encompassing approximately 596.54 acres just south of Waelder and Interstate 10 in northern Gonzales County. Offering exceptional hunting, fishing, ranching, and outdoor opportunities, this expansive property provides the scale, privacy, and habitat increasingly difficult to find.

Baldridge Creek winds through the ranch, creating a natural wildlife corridor lined with mature creek-bottom vegetation and dense cover. The diverse landscape supports an abundance of whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, hogs, and other native wildlife. Exotic red stag also roam the property, adding a rare and distinctive element to the ranch’s year-round recreational and hunting appeal.

Four ponds provide water for wildlife and livestock. The centerpiece is an approximately 3.5-acre stock pond and fishing lake verified to contain large bass, perch, and catfish. Three additional ponds, each approximately one-half acre, are distributed throughout the ranch.

Overlooking the main lake is a shop with an attached overhang, offering equipment storage and a shaded gathering area ideal for grilling, entertaining, and relaxing after a day spent hunting, fishing, or working cattle. A three-bedroom, one-bath single-wide trailer currently serves as functional sleeping quarters for family, guests, and hunting groups. The living quarters are supported by a water well, septic system, and electricity.

One of the ranch’s most unique features is a concealed underground bomb and emergency shelter equipped with a separate solar-powered water well and storage tank. For privacy and security, its location and additional details will be disclosed only to qualified buyers during a private showing of the property.

The ranch offers a combination of wooded cover, open grazing areas, creek bottoms, trails, and multiple recreational zones. Agricultural use includes running cattle and supporting the property’s existing ag valuation.

Pipeline easements and oil-and-gas activity are present on portions of the property, primarily across the eastern acreage near the road entrance. Baldridge Creek also includes areas within the FEMA-designated floodplain. These features contribute established access corridors, habitat diversity, and the rugged character that hunters and outdoorsmen will appreciate.

Located within convenient reach of Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and the Interstate 10 corridor, this is an opportunity to acquire nearly 600 acres for hunting, fishing, cattle, recreation, preparedness, and the creation of a lasting Texas family legacy.
