Where the oaks of Central Texas meet the Mesquite of South Texas meet, the 2,500 acre (1,000 hectare) Lazy F Ranch is one of the most beautiful and historic "smaller" working cattle ranches in Texas.
The ranch is featured in the Southwestern Gem Hunters Guide, as it has an ancient rock fault running through the Southern part, which is rich in petrified wood and palm tree, agate, jasper, quartz, and other minerals ideal for jewelry or collecting.
Essentially, this is a big cattle ranch and a small, exclusive guest ranch. You get lots of individual attention, as we try to limit our full time ranch guests to a total of 10. You will become one of the family and crew. You work right along with our crew.. you only watch if you want to.
