DESCRIPTION
Nestled in the heart of Mountain Home, Texas, Walker Ranch spans 196 high-fenced acres and offers a turnkey hunting and recreational escape in Kerr County. Designed with sportsmen in mind, the ranch features two comfortable cabins with room for 8–9 guests, exceptional Whitetail genetics, a variety of exotics, reliable water sources, and a scenic landscape. Whether you’re seeking a private retreat, a hunting getaway, or a place to entertain clients, Walker Ranch is ready to enjoy from day one.
Location
Walker Ranch benefits from both convenience and seclusion. Accessed off of Kemp Road, a well-maintained private road, the ranch is just 8 miles from I-10. From the gate, it’s only 22 miles to Kerrville or Harper, less than an hour to Boerne, and about 87 miles to San Antonio. This prime placement provides quick access to amenities while still maintaining the privacy and exclusivity expected of a Hill Country ranch.
Land & Terrain
The ranch showcases a diverse and attractive landscape. Rolling topography, oak mottes, cleared cedar areas, and weathered creek beds create a dynamic setting for wildlife and recreation. Extensive cedar management has allowed native grasses to flourish, with knee-high stands covering portions of the property. Several seasonal draws cross the ranch, offering opportunities to further expand water resources and habitat diversity. Well-maintained roads make the land easily navigable throughout.
Improvements
Turnkey lodging is a highlight of Walker Ranch.
• The main cabin (854± sq. ft.) includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, high ceilings, a full kitchen, and rustic cedar finishes that provide a mountain-lodge feel.
• The guest cabin (500± sq. ft. across two levels) offers one bedroom, one bathroom, and an upstairs loft, perfect for kids or additional guests.
Additional improvements include:
• A three-stall pole barn for equipment storage
• A shipping container with a designated deer-cleaning station
• A soft-release pen for acclimating new game or exotics
Wildlife
The ranch is a proven hunting property, home to both improved Whitetail genetics and free-ranging exotics. Trophy Whitetails ranging from 160” to 190”+ are accompanied by species such as axis, sika, and blackbuck. The ranch comes fully outfitted with:
• 4 deer blinds
• 5 corn feeders
• 6 protein feeders
• 2 cottonseed feeders
This infrastructure ensures year-round wildlife management and exceptional hunting opportunities.
Water
Reliable water is provided by two submersible wells that draw from the Edwards-Trinity Aquifer (approximately 300–400 feet deep). A half-acre, bentonite-lined pond reaching 6–7 feet in depth serves as both a wildlife water source and a spot for casual fishing. Seasonal creeks and draws further enhance the property’s water profile and provide options for additional improvements.
Summary
With its strong wildlife program, quality improvements, reliable water, and convenient location, Walker Ranch is a complete Hill Country package. Ready for immediate enjoyment, it offers everything a landowner could want—trophy hunting, comfortable lodging, and a scenic retreat—all within easy reach of the Hill Country’s most desirable towns.
