Double Aces Ranch encompasses approximately 6,552 contiguous acres in northern Coke County, offering an impressive combination of scale, diverse terrain, established infrastructure, abundant water, and exceptional wildlife resources. Located where the Hill Country, South Texas brush country, and rugged West Texas landscape converge, the ranch offers a remarkable variety of character across its acreage.
The terrain includes rolling ridgelines, rugged mesas, deep wooded draws, productive valleys, open grass meadows, and secluded flats, with elevation changes creating expansive views throughout the property. Native grasses include little bluestem, buffalo grass, sideoats grama, hairy grama, hooded windmillgrass, green sprangletop, white tridens, and Canada wildrye. Timber and brush communities include live oak, post oak, Ashe juniper, mesquite, cedar elm, shin oak, and native West Texas brush.
Situated between Abilene and San Angelo, the ranch offers convenient regional access while maintaining the privacy expected of a large Texas ranch. The northern entrance is only minutes west of Blackwell, with Abilene and San Angelo each approximately one hour away and Midland/Odessa approximately two hours. Nearby Oak Creek Lake provides additional recreational opportunities.
Double Aces is an established working ranch with seven interior pastures and significant infrastructure already in place. Approximately 80% of the perimeter and interior fencing has been replaced within the past eight years. The ranch is primarily low-fenced, with a short section of high fence along the western boundary.
Water is a significant asset, with seven operational windmills, one solar-powered well, one electric water well, multiple concrete pila storage tanks and drinkers, seasonal creek systems, large natural drainages, and scattered dirt tanks providing a distributed water network for livestock and wildlife.
The established headquarters is surrounded by mature pecan and live oak trees and includes two three-bedroom homes, approximately 25 acres of tillable ground currently used as a food plot, a pole barn, cattle working pens, horse stalls, and a dedicated water well. A concrete pila has also been converted into a shaded, chlorinated swimming pool, adding a unique recreational amenity.
Access is well established throughout the property. A professionally constructed caliche spine road travels from the northeast entrance to the southern gate, with four concrete spillways incorporated into the main road system. Additional two-tracks, utility roads, and ATV trails provide extensive interior access. The southern exit connects to Highway 158 via Graham Valley Road.
Wildlife is a defining feature of Double Aces Ranch. A December 2025 deer survey documented 221 deer, including 131 does, 43 fawns, 34 young bucks, 8 middle-aged bucks, and 5 mature bucks. The survey also documented 25 quail coveys. Additional wildlife includes numerous feral hogs, Rio Grande turkey, bobwhite quail, dove, seasonal waterfowl, sandhill cranes, and four zebra.
The ranch’s varied terrain, water resources, native vegetation, food plots, and established wildlife populations create excellent opportunities for hunting, wildlife observation, and outdoor recreation.
Adding another distinctive element is a historic, approximately one-mile asphalt landing strip within a high-fenced area. While not currently operational, the airstrip presents a unique opportunity for a future owner to evaluate rehabilitation and restoration, subject to appropriate inspections, approvals, and permitting.
With its 6,552 contiguous acres, diverse terrain, extensive water infrastructure, established headquarters, significant fencing improvements, documented wildlife resources, interior access, and historic airstrip, Double Aces Ranch offers the opportunity to acquire a substantial West Texas landholding with the infrastructure and resources to support generations of continued use.
