Property Description
DESCRIPTION:
The San Saba Waters Ranch is a highly desirable live-water offering featuring the picturesque San Saba River frontage and rolling Hill Country topography. The water, views, wildlife and unbelievable pecan bottom areas are all highlights and the property is extremely diverse as far as habitat and terrain. The San Saba River in this area has strong flow along with a variety of shallow rapids and deep pools. There is a road following the river, providing exceptional access to the water. The pecan bottoms are some of the best we've ever seen and provide a large, scenic, park-like area above the river.
WATER:
Incredible deep frontage on the San Saba has extensive stretches with great depth, and the river frontage has diversity with both rapids and long pools. This is an appealing waterway for kayaking and fishing as well as floating and swimming. The flow is strong, and this is one of the best water features in all of the Texas Hill Country, providing seclusion and privacy. Bass fishing and catfish are prolific and waterfowl hunting can be strong at times as well. The deep pockets allow for great fishing while the rapids are perfect for relaxing in your lawn chair with the cool water running over your feet.
Along with the river there are a couple ponds and a water well.
