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.
