Crooked Creek Ranch comprises approximately 652.78 acres in southwest Callahan County. A prominent north-south ridge shapes the western side of the property, with elevations ranging from approximately 1,790 to 1,940 feet above sea level. The resulting 150 feet of elevation change creates broad views from the high ground and a varied landscape of fields, native pasture, brush and lower drainage areas. A wet-weather branch of Crooked Creek crosses the northwestern corner, and four earthen tanks place water features across the ranch. Native mesquite, hackberry, prickly pear, little bluestem, switchgrass and scattered oaks provide woody browse, native warm-season grasses, mast and dense thickets. Field-to-brush transitions and the creek drainage connect feeding areas, travel routes and bedding habitat for white-tailed deer. Turkey, dove and feral hogs also use the ranch. Approximately 117 acres are tillable and non-irrigated, providing ground for continued agricultural use or wildlife-focused plantings such as food plots and sunflowers. The placement of these fields beside native pasture and woody vegetation creates edge habitat between forage-producing ground and secluded thickets. County Road 277 provides access, with electricity available at the county road. Cattle pens are located near the northwestern entrance, and perimeter and cross-fencing divide the acreage for livestock and ranch management. The gate is approximately 9 miles by road from Oplin, 23 miles from Coleman, 24 miles from Baird and 40 miles from Abilene. Crooked Creek Ranch brings together scale, varied terrain, water, tillable ground and native habitat for hunting, livestock use and long-term land stewardship.

Picture morning coffee on the covered porch as fog lifts off the pond, hens scratching near the barn, and kids racing across ten wide open acres before the bus even shows up. That is the small farm life waiting just outside Keatchie, Louisiana, built around a beautifully updated 2,409 square foot home with 3 bedrooms and 2 and a half bathrooms. Inside, an open floorplan pulls everyone toward the same room, from the stone fireplace anchoring the living area to a kitchen dressed in crisp white and blue cabinetry, stainless appliances, and bar seating built for Sunday pancakes. French doors off the dining nook lead straight out to the back porch, so the walk from kitchen table to garden dirt takes about four steps. The primary suite offers a private, tiled ensuite bath, two more bedrooms share a second full bath, and a convenient half bath rounds things out, giving everyone a place to land at the end of a long outdoor day. Then there is the land itself. Ten cleared, chain link fenced acres leave room for goats, horses, a proper garden, or whatever the homestead calls for, and the pond practically begs for an afternoon fishing line, because this is Louisiana and there is almost certainly something biting. A barn stands ready for feed, tools, or animals, and with well and septic already in place, this property is set up to actually live the life, not just picture it. Zoned for Desoto Parish schools and a short drive from Shreveport, this is a rare chance to trade the subdivision for wide open sky. Come see what raising a family, or simply yourself, out here really feels like. All information believed to be correct but should be confirmed during the inspection period.
