Property Highlights:
This 5101 +/- acre ranch is located about 21 miles (40 minutes) west of Red Bluff, CA. Red Bluff is your quintessential cowboy town with 14,000 residents, great shopping, restaurants, hospital and the mighty Sacramento River. Red Bluff is known for its Bull and Gelding sale in January and the Red Bluff rodeo in April.
The Crook Ranch’s rolling hills with ranch elevation from 1000 ft to 1520 ft make it a great 300 -350 cow operation. The weather really dictates the number of Animal Units. In some years you can run more and in some years you have to run less. It has been traditionally used as a winter grazing outfit with the cows arriving in mid November and shipped out in mid-May.
The 5101 +/- acres is currently in 12 tax parcels. The property is zoned EAAP (Exclusive Ag) and is currently enrolled in the Williamson Act.
The old homestead on the ranch is in a tear down condition, but the barn is very functional. It measures 45′ x 51′. The corrals are functional, but older. The old homestead has a newer drilled well and, of course, the hand dug homestead well is the back up.
The rolling grasslands provide optimum habitat for trophy Black Tail deer, wild pig, turkey, quail, dove, and predators. Miles of trails and beautiful scenery make the camping, hunting, fishing, swimming and horseback riding fantastic experiences, all without ever leaving your own ranch!
