There are two gates to open and close. 



 The large porch has tables, chairs, a hammock and a wonderful view.   

There is a gas grill on the porch plus a fire pit and wood/charcoal grill outside.  

You can hike and explore, observe the wildlife, look at the stars or listen to the birds.  

Many guests bring bird seed or corn; then they sit back and watch what comes up for free snack.

STUFF YOU NEED TO KNOW

    

Ranch Entrance 

Five miles north of the courthouse on US 87.

Coming from Mason, the entrance is on the left.  

The gate is closed to keep the cattle in ... not to keep people out!

Drive through the gate, fasten it, and follow the signs to check in. 

  

We will show you rocks and artifacts that have been found on the ranch, give you maps and tell you to have a wonderful time.  Clay and Deloris Lindsay on Mason Mountain when we were younger and the grass was green.
