Van Zandt County - Van Zandt County Road 2901, Canton, TX
Overview: Stillwaters Ranch, a secluded retreat near the Van Zandt and Henderson County line, offers exceptional proximity to DFW—just 67 minutes from Dallas. This quintessential East Texas recreational ranch spans approximately 248.68± acres, providing year-round activities for family and guests.
A true turn-key property, Stillwaters Ranch is designed for immediate enjoyment. It is high-fenced for whitetail and exotic game enthusiasts, with significant investments made to introduce superior whitetail genetics after the removal of the native herd. The ranch is also home to axis, blackbuck and fallow deer, while its diverse cover and rolling topography create a "fair chase" hunting experience.
The property features two professionally engineered bass lakes, offering scenic views and outstanding fishing opportunities for trophy largemouth bass. A 12-hole golf course provides a fun and challenging experience, making it a popular destination for family and friends. Visitors often travel from Cedar Creek Lake to enjoy a morning hunt followed by an afternoon of fishing and golf.
Nestled between the lakes, the ranch’s well-planned improvements comfortably accommodate family and guests.
Location: Stillwaters Ranch is conveniently located just east of Purtis Creek State Park, off blacktopped County Road 2901 in Van Zandt County, midway between Athens and Canton.
Surface Water & Fisheries: 5.65+/- Acre Lake- The recently expanded 5.65+/- acre lake is just east of the improvements and is located with the golf course within a low fenced area of 16.85+/- acres within the high fence. A dock is at the SW corner of the lake and is just a short walk down from the improvement area. The lake has been designed and managed to be an excellent fishery for trophy largemouth bass. The lake has been annually stocked with a variety of baitfish (bluegill, redear, fathead minnows, golden shiners, tilapia and shad) from 2018 - 2023. In May of 2018, the lake was stocked with 90 lbs. of largemouth bass that were 14-16 inches. In February of 2019, an additional 40 lbs. of 1-2 lb. bass, 40 lbs. of 2-3 lb. bass and 40 lbs. of 3-5 lb. bass were also introduced; an assortment of additional bass were also added to the lake in June of 2021. In January of 2021, 600 channel catfish were also introduced into the lake. See broker for full fishing inventory breakdown.
4.4+/- Acre Lake- The recently expanded 4.4+/- acre lake is just SW of the improvements. The second lake has also been designed and managed to be an excellent fishery for trophy largemouth bass. The lake has been annually stocked with a variety of baitfish (bluegill, redear, fathead minnows, tilapia and shad) from 2018 - 2023. In June of 2018, the lake was stocked with largemouth bass.

Wildlife & Hunting: The high fenced game ranch has been infused with superior whitetail deer genetics, as well as small herds of axis, blackbuck and fallow deer. While the ranch is high fenced, the ample cover, creeks, draws and topography make each hunt feel "fair chase", especially for the avid bow hunter. The high fence has predator wire along the entire boundary. It also has exceptional water gaps throughout the perimeter where numerous creeks and draws flow in and out of the ranch. See broker for additional details regarding the whitetail and exotic herds.
12 Hole Golf Par 3 Course - "The Beaver": For the golfing enthusiast, or simply buyers looking for quality activities to entertain guests, the 12 Hole Par 3 golf course, "The Beaver", offers a challenging course and great fun for all ages. Keep the annual "The Beaver Open" running for friends and family to see if the current course record of 3 over par can be beat. The synthetic turf putting green has multiple hole locations and is right at the water's edge. There are 12 synthetic turf tee boxes in strategic locations to challenge even the most skilled golfers. There are scenic shots across the lake, through the woods and each tee box is nicely landscaped and marked with the corresponding hole number and distance to the green. Two synthetic turf drop zones are also located near the putting green.

Off to each side of the seated firepit area is a basketball court with an adjustable height rim and a covered cookout area to grill up steaks and/or smoke a brisket.
