“bob-white” is the distinctive sound you hear as you pull up to the gate; the sentries of quail are out in full force to give you that unique West Texas Howdy. Their chorus of whistles creates peace that makes the Double Mountain view much more special. Quail aren’t the only ones that enjoy this area of Stonewall County, the wild hogs, Whitetail deer, dove, and much more flourish in this landscape abundant with water throughout. The Salt Creek 721 offers all that you would expect in the great outdoors with uninterrupted views of iconic landscape, wildlife, water, and more stars than you can imagine. This is a full experience. Along the foothills of what early settlers used to guide their travels, this property has a landscape that rises in elevation to soak in those historic views. You’ll find the place functional too, with three large stock tanks collecting water from the canyons that flow into Salt Creek. Cross fenced for livestock; the interior and perimeter fences are in good shape. The property has been managed over the years, so grass production is better than normal for the area. A variety of trees are thick in the canyon draws and around the surface water. The cover is very good with the landscape serving as travel corridors and the trees protecting those wild travelers. The open areas will be critical during rut season as the neighboring properties are thick with trees. Fawns can be found bedding down in the thick grass and find the property nice to run and play. Large concrete troughs can be found throughout filled by the working windmills and a series of buried poly lines. A good property just off the beaten path is sometimes hard to find, especially one with good water, terrain change, wildlife, and views both day and night. Come see what the early settlers saw, its sure worth the look.
