Description
Twin Lakes Ranch - 150.18 Acres | Runnels County, Texas
Asking Price: $789,000
Twin Lakes Ranch is a true sportsman's paradise located just west of Ballinger, Texas. Rarely do properties come available with this much water, wildlife habitat, and recreational opportunity packed into one tract. Surrounded by Old Ballinger Lake to the north, New Ballinger Lake to the south, Quarry Creek to the west, and Valley Creek to the east, this unique 150.18-acre ranch offers exceptional hunting, fishing, agricultural potential, and scenic beauty.
The property features productive cropland surrounded by thick mesquite cover, established coastal grass, rolling terrain, excellent views, multiple water wells, and outstanding habitat for both game and waterfowl. Whether you're looking for a hunting retreat, fishing property, investment opportunity, or future waterfowl development project, Twin Lakes Ranch offers tremendous potential.
Land & Features
The ranch consists of approximately 150.18 acres with a diverse combination of cultivated ground, established coastal grass, rolling terrain, and heavy mesquite cover.
The cropland is centrally located within the ranch and surrounded by dense native brush, creating ideal wildlife habitat and excellent hunting opportunities. The property's topography offers beautiful views and numerous locations for blinds, feeders, and future improvements.
Features include:
Rolling terrain with excellent views
Established coastal grass
Productive cropland
Heavy mesquite cover
Excellent wildlife habitat
Large neighboring ranch along the western boundary
Government-owned floodplain land along the eastern boundary
Water
Water is the defining feature of Twin Lakes Ranch.
The property is uniquely positioned with Old Ballinger Lake bordering the north side of the ranch and New Ballinger Lake bordering the south side. Quarry Creek traverses the western portion of the property, while Valley Creek forms the eastern boundary.
Additional water features include:
Frontage on both sides of Quarry Creek
Three irrigation wells producing approximately 200 gallons per minute
One domestic water well producing approximately 20 gallons per minute
One cased well
The combination of surface water and irrigation capacity creates outstanding recreational, agricultural, and waterfowl development opportunities.
A future duck hunting oasis could easily be developed by utilizing the irrigation wells to flood millet, milo, or corn fields during migration seasons.
Wildlife & Recreation
Twin Lakes Ranch offers exceptional year-round hunting and fishing opportunities.
Wildlife includes:
Whitetail deer
Turkey
Hogs
Dove
Ducks
Quail (There are nesting pairs all over the ranch at this time.)
The combination of thick cover, cropland, nearby water sources, and limited neighboring pressure creates excellent habitat for wildlife throughout the year.
Fishing opportunities are equally impressive. Anglers can enjoy fishing along Quarry Creek and Valley Creek, with opportunities to catch bass and spring crappie directly from the creek banks.
Improvements
Coleman County electric meters in place
One tower blind
One deer feeder
Location & Access
Approximately 5 miles west of Ballinger
Runnels County, Texas
Convenient access to Ballinger and surrounding communities
Twin Lakes Ranch is a rare opportunity to own a highly diversified recreational property featuring two lakes, two creeks, excellent hunting, productive farmland, irrigation water, and outstanding fishing opportunities. Properties with this combination of water, wildlife, and agricultural potential are increasingly difficult to find.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageLiving in the town all my life, I am very familiar with the school system in this town and have almost nothing but great to say about it. Ballinger High School is one of those schools that you just cant forget, all the memories made are ones you never forget, everyone is friendly and fair and I would not have it any other way. The school spirit that BHS posses is by far the best i've seen in a high school all over Texas, even the whole town will go out of their way to support the growth and prosperity of the school, and with that being said, lets get to the negatives. BHS is under a dress code, though not as strict as some other school have, a nuisance at that. Men have to have their shirts tucked in at all times and must have their faces cleanly shaved, I can understand this for a team going out on a sporting event for away games, but at school? Speaking for everyone I can say that no one likes the dress code, is there was something I could change about this school It would be that and only that.Student Review13y ago - Ballinger Junior High School
