Seco Valley Ranch Trophy Whitetail Deer & Feral Hogs Real Hunting Fair Chase ![]()
The Seco Valley Ranch consists of 1883 low-fenced acres in the Hill Country of Medina County, located 8 miles southwest of Tarpley, Texas. The terrain varies from rough and brushy limestone hills to open pasture broken by live oak motts with plenty of underbrush. The ranch is located on the Balcones Escarpment where the Edwards Plateau oak and juniper savanna, meets the South Texas Brush Country. Vegetation is a mix of species common to the two areas. Several wet-weather creeks run through the property and we provide wildlife watering sites spaced through eight pastures.
Our cabin will comfortably sleep up to seven persons in separate beds on a shared air-conditioned sleeping porch.

Please review our Hold Harmless and Lease Agreement we require all hunters to sign. Guest lodging is a masonry cabin with two indoor fireplaces, central heat/ac, satellite TV, full kitchen, game cooler, two semi-private bunkhouse-style bedrooms with three twin beds each plus a futon couch in the great-room, and two baths with showers (one indoors, one make-shift addition off the back of the cabin). The location is secluded and quiet, conducive to relaxation and a quality hunting experience. Non-hunting attractions include great bird watching and Texas Longhorn cattle. We discourage guests from bringing out their dogs due to the number of working cats employed at the headquarters and the proximity of livestock handling facilities to the cabin.
