The Lindsay Ranch is one of only three places in Texas where you can hunt for topaz. We have two guest houses and two primitive camp sites.

The ranch is open for guests from January 15 - September 30.

You may come for the day to look for rocks. The cost is $20.00 per person age 18 and over. Call 325-347-4052 to schedule your hunt.  

Screens, shovels and digging tools are provided. You keep what you find. 

 Everyone must sign a Release of Claims and Waver of Liability.

If you can't stand the sight of a spider, scorpion, snake or perhaps a mouse, stay somewhere else.

HOW TO CHOOSE WHERE YOU WANT TO STAY?

The Cabin on Comanche Creek is closer to Mason. It is also close to Highway 87/377. The road is maintained and you can drive to the Cabin and to Comanche Creek in a regular car. 

Mason Mountain Manor is more remote and secluded. It is 2 1/2 miles from the highway in the middle of our 700 acre back pasture. The Manor is the place to stay if you REALLY want to get away.

A pick-up or vehicle with more ground clearance is recommended if you stay at the Manor.
