The Petrolia Ranch is an outstanding North Texas ranching and recreational property encompassing approximately 2,226 acres in northern Clay County. Comprised of expansive native grass prairies and some hardwood-lined creek bottoms, this ranch offers a good balance of productive grazing land and quality wildlife habitat.
Long Creek runs the width of the property, providing scenic views and a seasonal water source while supporting exceptional hunting opportunities for trophy whitetail deer, Rio Grande turkey, wild hogs, and varmints. The ranch is primarily operated as a cattle ranch, featuring well-managed native grass pastures that have been aerially sprayed and maintained throughout the property.
Improvements include good to excellent fencing with pipe-gated entrances, an established interior road system, and electrical service in place. Pipe corrals are shared with a neighbor and are located near the north entrance to the property, allowing for efficient livestock handling.
Access is excellent, with frontage along Highway 79 on the north and Black Road on the south, providing multiple entry points. Surface water is spread across the ranch, with two lakes and two additional ponds, offering dependable water for livestock, wildlife, and recreational enjoyment. The terrain is well-drained, with gently rolling topography across most of the ranch, allowing it to be both functional and visually appealing.
