Far northwest Travis County seems like a different world when compared to the urban core of Austin.  Here you can find some of the tallest hills in the area – many of them reaching to 1,200 ft.  The Cow Creek Ranch consists of 372 acres nestled in these hills as well as over 800 ft. of crystal clear Cow Creek which flows into Lake Travis about 5 miles from this property. Very private, this ranch is surrounded by large acreage ranches and the federally protected, 30,000+ acre Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge, a habitat set aside for various endangered species such as the The Golden-cheeked Warbler, Black-capped Vireo and Painted Bunting. This ensures panoramic views of these canyons

and hills for generations to come. In keeping with the nature of the land surrounding it, special conservation easements have also been placed on the Cow Creek Ranch to minimalize development and enhance the beauty of this special place.  Wet weather creeks and draws criss-crossing the property have carved stunning grottoes into the limestone hills on the property.  Several pastures have been cleared on the property creating the perfect place for a ranch home.  Apart from endangered species, other wildlife seen on the property include turkey, deer and wild hogs – perfect for hunters.
