Summary: We see and work on a lot of different ranches around the state, and it generally takes a pretty special place to get us excited. This is one of those. Patridge Creek Ranch does not disappoint as it is one of the most scenic, diverse, and unique ranches you will find anywhere, and one you truly have to see to fully appreciate.
Location: Located in northwestern Comanche County just east of the Brown County line, the Patridge Creek Ranch can be found approximately 12 miles northwest of Comanche, Texas, and is an easy 2.5 hours southwest of Dallas, 2 hours southwest of Fort Worth, and 1.25 hours southeast of Abilene. The property is centrally located between and approximately 30 minutes from Lake Proctor and Lake Brownwood. Physical Address: 1350 CR 175, Sidney, TX 76474.
History: Just consider for a moment that this land was wild and widely uninhabited by Anglos up until the late 1,800's as this was Comanche Indian territory, as the county is so thusly named. Comanche and Kiowa Indians frequented the area, and their presence is clearly evidenced here by the collection of arrowheads, spearpoints, and tools regularly found on the property still today. On "star mountain" there are some old carvings dating back to the early 1,900's on a scenic lookout point, and other carvings inside a rock capped shelter that may pre-date these. Often during those earlier days Texas Rangers would take post on similar look out points for days at a time, scanning the vast prairies looking for raiding parties or threatening activity. Some of the many carvings seen could be Ranger identification numbers or symbols, as have been found on points much like these in the surrounding areas. Patridge Creek Ranch is the south pasture of a former 1,828 acre ranch known as Indian Hills.
