The 282-acre Home Place Ranch is located 90 miles from both Oklahoma City and Tulsa in Hughes County, Oklahoma and just 2.5 miles southeast of Wetumka. Bounded by three quiet county roads and lying two miles east of Highway 75, this ranch offers a tranquil setting with great soils, water, and everything else you need to create a peaceful, productive ranch. The remnants of an old homestead, including a hand dug rock lined well, are still visible and harken back to a time when Oklahoma was still a relatively young state. The early homesteaders of Oklahoma had a great eye for land, and it can still be seen today on ranches like this one. They had to clear trees with axes and handsaws, and, as such, they paid close attention to the soils to make sure that the land they cleared was worth the effort. Home Place Ranch has a mixture of fields, pastures and wooded draws that run along the four drainages of the property. A quick review of the soil map shows that the areas that were left in timber were better suited to provide cattle with cover in the winter, shade in the summer and to create ponds to capture their drinking water. Interestingly, the draws run east to west which is ideal for protecting cattle from cold north winds during the winter. In addition, those interested in deer hunting will appreciate that the northernmost wooded draw on the property runs roughly 1500 feet to the Wewoka Creek travel corridor. In contrast, the open areas are the more fertile Class 2 and 3 soils that are ideal for agricultural production. In other words, the highest and best use of each natural setting, whether it be for cover, water, wildlife, grazing or farming, was determined and enhanced over the years. The ranch has roughly 220 acres of class 2 and 3 sandy loam soils that have worked hard over the years producing crops such as corn, peanuts, wheat and cattle. Consequently, this property offers a lot of bang for the buck given that it is 80 percent open and only 20 percent wooded. In recent years the owners have primarily focused on creating a ranch that can support cattle year-round with a mix of native, improved and conventional grazing areas that offer cattle a forage choice for every season. The tillable areas of the ranch offer opportunities to diversify winter cover crops to reduce the need for large winter stores of hay. With improved interior cross fencing, a producer could set this ranch up for intensive, rotational grazing. The largest pond on the property is about 1.5 acres and was built with a steel pipe and valve that could potentially be used to access the water from the pond for irrigation. On the north end of the property there is a pond that can cover almost an acre when full and there are three other small ponds that could be improved to hold more water. The old hand dug well has been partially filled in, but today, potable water is supplied to the ranch via connection to the rural water system. The ranch has 1.5 miles of road frontage making it easy to reach any part of the ranch from county-maintained roads in addition to the internal paths that connect pastures. With rural water and electricity running along the frontage, this ranch offers the next owner an opportunity to subdivide and sell off portions of the ranch over time, if they so desired and that’s not a bad option to have. Alternatively, it would also make a great ranch for a multiple household, extended family to spread out on with building sites along each road frontage. Home Place Ranch offers a unique opportunity to steward a smartly developed framework back into a powerhouse ranch. If you are looking for a property with a high percentage of productive soils that could benefit from some investment in fencing and ponds, then this would make an excellent place to continue a legacy of smart farming and ranching that began decades ago.

990 +/- Acres Horton Cattle Ranch Holdenville, OK

Magnolia Hill Ranch is located just east of Calvin, Oklahoma on Highway 270; 100 miles from OKC or Tulsa and 150 miles from DFW. This 312-acre ranch has a great mixture of wildlife habitat and working ranch improvements. The main entry to the property is at the northernmost tip of the ranch at the west boundary. As you pass through the gate, you immediately drive up to a ranch style home on a prominent hill. An ancient magnolia tree graces the front yard of the property and provides the ideal spot to sit and take in the expansive view across the South Canadian River valley located immediately to the north of the property. The 1850 square foot brick home has a large garage complete with a basement beneath it. Inside you will find a living room, den with fireplace, galley style kitchen, dining area, three bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths. The wood floors have a great old farmhouse charm to them. We think this home would shine with a light remodel and make a great temporary headquarters while you build your dream home on the higher ground southeast of it. Speaking of new construction, the current owner has recently completed a very impressive metal shop building. Featuring 16 ft tall sidewalls and two 16 ft by 16 ft garage doors in addition to one that is 12 ft by 12 ft, this 4200 square foot shop is ready for the largest equipment you might need to store. Three walk-through doors make it convenient to access the interior. A 20 ft by 70 ft lean-to shed runs the length of the shop and provides a great place to park equipment or to use for sheltering animals. Currently, five mobile horse stalls reside beneath the shade of the lean-to. Just behind the shop is a large gravel area ideal for storing building materials and equipment that doesn't need to be inside. A small pond is just located to the side of the shop. This headquarters area has approximately 30 open acres of pasture with scattered mature oak trees that is ideal for a few horses, cows, or other small farm animals. Once you leave the front pasture, the setting changes quickly. The east gate leads into a 1-acre food plot that has a nice stand of winter forages including a thick growth of turnips. A feeder is located about halfway down the food plot but still within easy shooting distance of the elevated hunting blind. If you walk to the end of the food plot and into the woods you will see an impressive stand of very old and very large cedar trees. A few of these cedars could be selectively harvested and integrated into a new home to make a very impressive set of porch posts or beams. Below the cedars, you catch your first glimpse of the 1.4 miles of Salt Creek that flow through the property. We have sold multiple properties up and down Salt Creek over the years and have always been impressed with the quality of bucks that move up and down this drainage from the South Canadian River. When the creek leaves the ranch, it only runs another seven tenths of a mile before it flows into the South Canadian. This location makes Magnolia Hill the first sanctuary for whitetails coming off the river, giving you the first look and/or shot at any of the trophy bucks that move through during the rut. The banks of the creek are carpeted with mature oaks that produce the cornerstone of whitetail nutrition; acorns. In addition, a large food plot has been planted in a large flat just east of the creek. The trail leading out of the creek and on to the food plot has been in constant use by deer that it is eroded down into the sides of the creek bank. The property has been managed for trophy hunting for years and now has a nice pipeline of quality bucks for you to pursue. If you enjoy planting food plots, the sandy loam soils are fertile enough to support a good growth of vegetation. There are also six ponds that you can manage for fish or waterfowl. In addition, if you would like to work with the Land Doctors to design and build new ponds, there are some great draws that appear to have seasonal spring flow in them that are begging to be transformed into clearwater fishing and swimming holes. Lastly, the ranch has good fencing allowing you to run a small herd of cattle. If you have been looking for this combination of wildlife, natural beauty and ranch improvements, please call Sean Childress at 580 320 5791 .

Although there are many good deer hunting properties in Oklahoma, there are some features that mark the dividing line between good and great. Some counties are known for producing better bucks than others, some rivers are better corridors for deer movement during the rut than other drainages, some neighborhoods have larger ranches that keeps the hunting pressure lower than in other areas, and some owners have done a better job managing the wildlife than their peers. If you are looking for a ranch that has a combination of these features, then we’d like to welcome you to the Land Doctors latest listing, Oakridge Ranch. Oakridge Ranch is a 160-acre wildlife haven located in a secluded part of Hughes County, Oklahoma, eight miles south of Holdenville. That makes it a 90-minute drive from either OKC or Tulsa and only a 2 ½ drive from the northern edge of the DFW metroplex. Even though it is in a county known for trophy bucks and it’s a nice drive from three major metros, that’s not really the best part of the location. More importantly for hunters is the location of this ranch between two of the best travel corridors for trophy bucks in Oklahoma, Little River, and the South Canadian River. The ranch is located just five miles up from the confluence of these two rivers in a narrowing sliver of land that compresses the travel patterns of wildlife and condenses their populations to a higher than normal density. The presence of these rivers also means that better soils, more abundant native forage, and the presence of high protein crops are nearby to support larger wildlife populations. Of course, open farmland along the rivers does not necessarily provide good cover for deer. Many times, elusive bucks will travel up small creeks to areas that provide better cover. Oakridge Ranch happens to have a small creek that drains north to Little River and extends south to a point where it almost touches another small creek that drains into the South Canadian River. The combination of these two creeks creates a low, mostly wooded pathway that acts as a shortcut between the two rivers. One could easily imagine how this would be beneficial during the rut. What’s even better is when your 160 acres is surrounded on three sides by one neighbor who owns nearly 6800 acres. That certainly helps reduce the hunting pressure. Oakridge ranch has another feature that makes it even more inviting to whitetails, its bordered on the north by a ridge with an elevation of 900 feet and on the south by another ridge that is 890 feet. The creek bottom between is a cozy 780 feet, meaning the deer have a physical buffer between them and any noise or disturbance from the county road to the south or the smaller neighbor to the north. The owner has done a masterful job of managing a pipeline of quality up and coming bucks. In addition to the heavy acorn crops that the oak forest naturally provides, he has maintained two large food plots that pull the deer into the core of the property and on top of the forage plantings, he has also provided feed as supplemental nutrition. This combined with a strict philosophy of waiting to shoot on truly mature bucks, has led to an unusually large number of quality bucks. Last year, the ranch held as many as six 150-inch bucks. The seller believes those bucks survived and expects them to show up again this fall with even more impressive racks as they have reached full maturity, so far two 150 inch plus bucks have been caught on camera. Water is necessary for good wildlife and this property has a great mixture of ½ mile of creek frontage and four ponds, one that is about 1 ½ acres and two that are roughly ½ acre each. The presence of these ponds also provides a nice opportunity to manage a bass fishery or to toss out a spread of decoys to catch ducks migrating along this natural flyway. In the off-season, the creek and ponds will be great hangout places for friends and family to enjoy the rock formations and ATV trails. If you’ve been looking for a hunting property that has all the features that are so hard to come by, don’t miss out on Oakridge Ranch, call Sean Childress today at 580 320 5791 to set up a showing.

Down a short section of dirt road in a small rural town in South Central Oklahoma an almost retired couple built their dream. They worked fast paced, off farm, jobs their entire lives and when the time came, they were able to say goodbye to time clock pay but, they knew they didn't want to simply retire. From this Rocky Top Winery was born. Located outside the town of Gerty, OK, Rocky Top Windery is 100 miles from OKC or Tulsa and 150 miles from DFW. The location is a quick and easy drive from the large metro areas making it appealing to those seeking a quick weekend get-away. In the early days the couple saw the value in coming home to the peace and tranquility of country life and wanted to create a place families could come relax, unplug and unwind. The idea took off and from there grew into what is now one of the area’s top Agritourism businesses. Today, the winery is furnished with 5 cabins which vary in amenity and size, each equipped with a large porch and view of the ponds. The guests often spend their evenings relaxing, fishing, sitting around the firepit or softly swinging on the porch swing. A short walk up the drive you’ll find the main home, a 2300 square foot, 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with a large porch overlooking the pond. The home is open and spacious, featuring a large primary suite, and expansive upstairs bedroom with nooks and sitting areas. Just a short distance from the main home is where you’ll find the headquarters of the winery. The vineyards are budding with rows of muscadines which will soon be crafted into the signature wine of Rocky Top Winery. The winery produces other fruit wines such as peach, strawberry, blackberry, raspberry and cranberry. They have grown the retail part of the business and are now proudly selling Rocky Top labeled wines in retail establishments in the area. This area of the business is fairly new and the owners have done an excellent job of opening the door for their product and feel this part of the business has the potential for tremendous growth in the future. The main barn is 4000 square feet and is home to the wine production and bottling rooms, meeting room, tasting room and retail shop. It’s truly the heart of the business. Here you’ll often find visitors enjoying a glass of wine in the tasting room or while creating and painting at one of the winery’s famous craft and sip nights. The porch overlooking the water is tranquil and inviting with it’s comfortable outdoor seating areas; a favorite place for guests to sit and enjoy the breathtaking Oklahoma sunsets. The meeting room can also host parties of all kinds from birthday parties, family reunions, baby showers, bridal showers and even bachelorette parties. If more space is needed for larger events such as a wedding, the secondary 30x40 climate-controlled barn accommodates larger parties with ease. The land surrounding the headquarters is full of possibilities. In the past the owners have enjoyed making hay and running a few head of cattle on the remaining pasture. The future owners could do the same or use this area to expand the guest amenities with walking trails, additional guest cabins, or as sites for camping and RV hook-up’s. There is still lots of room to modify and complete the buildout of this rural resort. Plus, this opportunity comes at a time when more and more of the urban population is searching for the peace and tranquility of the country. It was Thomas Jefferson who penned the now famous quote, “Agriculture is our wisest pursuit, because it will in the end contribute most to real wealth, good morals, and happiness.” The quote is as relevant today as it was in the 1700’s as we are seeing a boom in the Agritourism sector of the Ag markets. According to global study, the global Agri-tourism market is expected to surpass 115 billion USD by the year 2032. Rocky Top Winery is the perfect business for those looking to capitalize on the rural vacation boom! Lastly, for those worried about the economy, wine sales have long been known to be recession proof with people consuming approximately the same amount during good or bad times.

The Lamar Mountain Ranch is located just North of Lamar Oklahoma in Hughes County, 92 miles from Oklahoma City and 200 miles from Dallas/Ft. Worth. This hardworking ranch has spent its entire life caring for and raising commercial cattle on its 314 acres. The ranch itself is relatively flat but just beyond its Western border the elevation increases about 200 feet creating breathtaking views of what locals call "Lamar Mountain". The property is mostly open with areas of dense hardwoods for cover. The soils on this ranch are mostly class 2 and 3 soils consisting of Dennis Loam, Verdigris Silt Loam and fine sandy loam. These soils are fertile and support rangeland production. The western pastures have been terraced to prevent erosion and have served their purpose well. The perimeter fences of the ranch have been completely replaced in recent years and are in great shape. There are some interior cross fences which are in need of repair but are serviceable. Running North to South through the middle of the ranch is an old railroad which has since been abandoned and rails removed leaving a strong rock base, now a driveway, allowing for year-round access to any part of the ranch regardless of wet conditions. In addition to easy access, good soils and fences, the ranch has 9 ponds meaning even in a drought year you can still water your livestock. The eastern side of the ranch has almost 4000 feet of road frontage and several access gates to the 3 cross fenced pastures. There is a small, older, barn in the south eastern pasture that could serve as shelter or hay storage. It is also on this side of the property where Middle Creek is located. Middle Creek isn't deep or wide meaning it's easy to maintain crossings and water gaps. The main low water crossing has been recently fixed to include a nice concrete crossing wide enough for pickups and equipment. While this ranch is a hardworking cattle ranch, we have to mention the opportunity for development of trophy whitetail and other game. The dense mountain side is home to many large whitetails that Hughes County is known for. The area is quiet, not heavily populated and located between two of Oklahoma's major rivers, The North and South Canadian. Looking at a map this valley is sandwiched between higher, densely forested areas on both the East and West side. This narrow strip of fertile flat land would make the perfect place to establish food plots and create deer habitat.

Here at the Land Doctors, we have the opportunity to list some truly unique properties, but we're proud to present something new for us: a property custom-made for the aviators in our community. Located in Wetumka, Oklahoma, this property offers easy access via Hwy 9 and is just a short hour drive from Ada, Oklahoma. For those aviators that fly in and out of the Ada area, this airfield is just a short skip and jump away-perfect for those that enjoy flying in this part of Oklahoma but would like their own private place to land, take off and relax at. This 27-acre property features a beautiful grass landing strip in addition to several structures on property that offer flexibility for the buyer looking to make it their own. The runway itself is covered in a soft carpet of grass that stretches north to south along the property. At the southernmost end of the runway you'll find a secluded area that features two separate ponds; one visible at the end and the other hidden behind a small wooded area that provides excellent privacy. Moving to the north end of the property, you'll find a hangar that could use some TLC but currently houses a cropduster. Nearby, there's an enclosed shop building that sports a garage door as well as a small home that would make a great place to spend the night before a big flight or a place to relax after a long day in the air. Obviously, the grass areas on this property could also be used for other purposes, such as subdividing for new home lots in the Wetumka area, a possible cattle operation or even just a great place to build a homesite-especially in the southern areas. Runway Ranch offers a host of possibilities, but we believe that as it stands it could be the perfect place for our buyer to park a plane, enjoy the comforts that come along with living close to town and fly to their heart's content.
