AREA HISTORY
Located within the historic Choctaw Nation, Headwaters Ranch has a rich past. Originally assembled in the 1940s by a geologist and doctor, the ranch operated as a cattle operation until natural gas was discovered. Over time, livestock faded out, and nature reclaimed the land--creating today's pristine, wild landscape.
Neighboring ranches range in size from ~2,190 to ~5,295 acres, creating a unique block of low-pressure, large-acreage properties that are ideal for growing and sustaining big game.
OTHER
Some internal ranch roads will require maintenance, and countless miles of new trails can be created. Whether you envision a private hunting reserve, off-grid retreat, or a legacy property to pass down for generations, Headwaters Ranch delivers solitude, beauty, and untapped potential.
