DESCRIPTION

There are places in the Texas Hill Country that feel untouched, and then there are places that feel remembered. Pebble Creek Ranch is both.

Spanning 485+/- acres along the South Fork of the Guadalupe River in Hunt, Texas, this legacy property captures a rare combination of live water, scale, privacy, and quiet prestige. It is the kind of land that speaks softly, but leaves a lasting impression.

Water, Recreation & Uninterrupted Views

Water is the soul of Pebble Creek Ranch.

The South Fork of the Guadalupe River anchors the entire southern boundary of the ranch, offering a rare and highly desirable stretch of accessible, usable river frontage. This is not just a scenic feature, it is a place designed to be experienced.

A fire pit sits just above the river, paired with built-in concrete steps that lead you directly down to the water’s edge. It’s the kind of setting made for long evenings, quiet mornings, and everything in between, whether that’s casting a line, cooling off in the river, or simply sitting with family as the day winds down.

This stretch of river is well-suited for largemouth bass fishing, supported by steady flow and a healthy aquatic ecosystem, creating a setting equally appealing for the serious angler or those simply looking to enjoy the water as part of everyday ranch life.

In addition to the river, Cherry Creek winds through the ranch for over a mile, fed by multiple natural springs that enhance both the landscape and wildlife habitat.

Three custom water impoundments further define the property, two featuring dramatic 30-foot waterfalls flowing over 20 gallons per minute through the limestone, adding both visual beauty and a constant, calming presence of moving water.

The land transitions seamlessly between open pasture and mature hardwoods, supported by strong native grasses. The presence of the “Big Four”, little bluestem, big bluestem, switchgrass, and Indiangrass, speaks to the health and productivity of the soil.

Accessibility is effortless, with just under one mile of paved road running through the heart of the ranch, complemented by an all-weather road system that circles the perimeter and traverses the interior.

And perhaps most remarkable: from nearly every point on the ranch, there is not a home in sight.

Your western boundary is anchored by an 880-acre ranch, the northern boundary by a 2,130-acre ranch, and the eastern boundary by over 1,000 acres of neighboring land. Together, these large surrounding properties protect the viewshed and preserve a level of privacy that is increasingly rare in the Hill Country.

A Land with Deep Roots

Long before modern ranching, this valley was home to Native American tribes including the Comanche, Lipan Apache, and earlier Coahuiltecan peoples. These groups moved through the Hill Country following water and game, developing a deep understanding of the land that allowed them to thrive in its rugged beauty.

The Comanche, widely regarded as some of the most skilled horsemen in North America, held a strong presence in this region, while the Lipan Apache were known for their adaptability and resilience across South and Central Texas.

Artifacts such as arrowheads have been discovered throughout the ranch, quiet reminders that this land has been hunted, traveled, and valued for generations.

The nearby community of Hunt, Texas traces its roots back to the late 1800s, when settlers were drawn to the area by the clear, spring-fed waters of the Guadalupe River and its fertile valleys. What began as a rugged frontier settlement gradually became known for its natural beauty and cooler summer climate.

By the early 20th century, Hunt had established itself as a destination for recreation and retreat. Historic summer camps, many still operating today, line the river, creating a tradition of generational gatherings centered around the water. Over time, the area earned a quiet reputation as one of the Hill Country’s most cherished enclaves; where families return year after year, and where land is often held rather than sold.

Wildlife & Exotic Game

Pebble Creek Ranch is fully high-fenced, allowing for thoughtful wildlife management and a premier hunting experience. The ranch supports a diverse mix of native and exotic species, continuing Texas’ long-standing tradition of conservation-driven game ranching.

Exotic species include:

Axis Deer – Known for their year-round spotted coats and strong herd behavior.
Fallow Deer – European in origin, offering unique color variations and classic palmated antlers.

Abundant water, quality forage, and diverse terrain create an ideal environment for sustaining these species at a high level, ideal for hunters and breeders alike.

Improvements & Infrastructure

The ranch is thoughtfully improved to balance natural beauty with modern convenience. A custom entrance of native stone and river rock sets the tone, while electricity and fiber internet are available at multiple points across the property, providing flexibility for a variety of premier homesites.

Whether building a primary residence, a weekend retreat, or a multi-generational compound, the infrastructure is already in place to bring a vision to life.

At the highest point of the ranch sits a 900-foot-deep water well, producing approximately 20 gallons per minute, with a 10-inch diameter casing, a valuable and reliable water source positioned to serve future improvements.

Pebble Creek Ranch is conveniently accessed off Highway 39, approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes from San Antonio, 20 minutes from Kerrville, and 45 minutes from Fredericksburg.
