Surface Water:
Beautiful rock-bottom Simms Creek is the main attraction. Water runs clear most of the time and you can see the bottom and usually see fish swimming by. It attracts a very diverse wildlife including Kingfisher, Osprey, Caracara and others. Ranchers kids have grabbed their tubes and floated the creek from one end to the other. With approx. one third of a mile of both sides of the creek, there is ample room for recreation and water activities. There are also three stock tank/ponds, one known to have been previously fished. They provide water to livestock and native wildlife including dove and ducks.
Lampasas County is known for great hunting and diverse wildlife, and Simms Creek 267 has it all. The property provides good habitat for whitetail deer, turkey, dove, ducks, feral hogs, and varmints. A good mix of heavy to moderate tree cover, forbs, and browse help attract and hold wildlife on the ranch.
