The Running N Ranch is a 1,185-acre ranch featuring views from high elevation bluffs overlooking the Clear Creek valleys. Approximately 55% wooded and 45% grassland, the property is suited for both cattle and recreation. The historic Chisolm Trail and the Butterfield Stage line both traverse the area. The north western portion of the ranch was once a gravel mine, with reclaiming processes adding a crystal clear lake, with a second one under construction. Quarry Lake is about 6.45 acres with clear water. Twin Oaks Lake is about 2.4 acres in size and features deep banks and standing timber for natural fish cover. Sparrow Hawk Lake is a 6-acre lake with a park setting that includes a gazebo, dock, firepits, and toilet. Clear Creek forms the southeastern boundary of the property for about 0.9 of a mile. The valley bottoms host multiple natural springs that offer a year-round water source for wildlife and livestock. The 500 acres of grass is mostly hardy native grasses of the prairie, with one bottom pasture containing about 20 acres of improved bermudagrass. The 685 acres of woods include white oaks, native red oaks, pecan, hickory, walnut, persimmon, and elm. A brick office building, formerly used for the gravel mine, is now a camphouse. The structure includes two rooms plus a restroom and a 30x40 all-metal workshop. A water well serves this area and features a large capacity storage tank. An additional water well is located further south and is currently only used to water livestock. Electrical service lines are established in several locations around the property. There is a set of cattle pens located on the FM 3206 boundary. Fences and roads are located throughout the property.
