Llano
Springs Ranch, Ltd. is a 5,100 acre family owned and operated
ranch located at the headwaters of the South Llano River near
Junction, Texas. Three miles of the South Llano River flow through
the ranch creating unsurpassed scenery. The ranch land and game
have been intensively managed for the production of trophy whitetail
deer since 1994. A limited herd of Axis and Fallow deer also
thrive on the ranch.

The
land is representative of the Edwards Plateau region of Texas
with rolling hills and clear rock bottom springs. The ranch
terrain ranges from river bottom to rolling hills covered with
live oak and shin oak groves, lacey and chinquapin oaks, persimmon,
cedar brakes and occasional redbud, Texas sophora and elm trees.
The ranch land is managed in a way that creates a haven for
wildlife. The owners work with their private biologist, Fielding
Harwell, formerly with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department,
and have experienced the firsthand benefits of sound land stewardship
practices and habitat improvement.
The
primary focus of the owners is producing trophy class Whitetail
deer with a few quality exotics to add an element of interest
and enjoyment. An assortment of outdoor recreational activities
blend well with
off season use of the land, water and facilities.
Llano
Springs Ranch was awarded the Lone Star Land Steward Award
by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in 2007
for the Edwards Plateau Region.
