The ranch owner had a situation where i "unbeknownst to him" got a load of sick Axis that all died within a week. They may not ever have come from his place but because I bought them from his ranch, he was a stand up guy and completely reimbursed me! Quality people!

We booked a hunt for the Anheuser-Busch Hunting Club based out of the Houston Brewery and we had an absolute blast. Beautiful ranch, amazing house, and a great set up. The ranch manager (David) was very knowledgeable and super helpful. The property is great for family trips, company events or just a weekend getaway. We will definitely be back!!!

Absolutely amazing ranch with world class animals. I was fortunate enough to take a nice fallow on my trip. I would highly recommend CCR to anyone looking to take a trophy animal!

Cold Creek Ranch boasts healthy trophy selections including South Texas White Tailed Deer and many exotic African species too numerous to detail. The ranch provides very memorable trophy hunts in a beautiful setting. Whether you are harvesting Grade A trophy animals at the ranch conveniently located in Colorado County or transporting them to your own property for breeding or hunting; ranch owner, Bruce Smith and ranch manager, David Humes can help you get your game. I have enjoyed hunts at “CCR” for approximately 10 years, and have harvested some beautiful animals that look as good on the wall as the meat tastes on the grill. Both taxidermy and butchering services are conveniently handled nearby the ranch by the best in the business. Natural forage abounds on the ranch along with a clear running creek of spring fed water that likely makes the meat so good. The cleaning station is equipped with several electric hoists, professional grade stainless steel work counters, large sinks, and every conceivable convenience, including a large walk-in cold storage refrigerator that safety and properly can hang and chill the meat rather than having hunters resort to coolers and wet ice that is not the proper way to chill fresh harvested game…keep it cold and dry for best results, and the most hygienic results. Keep it simple, look into hunting CCR or purchasing from their wide variety of trophy animals for restocking elsewhere…save the hunting for when you have gun in hand, and skip the hunting for an exclusive trophy breeding program and ranch to fulfill your hunting fantasies now that you know about CCR or Cold Creek Ranch. Keep up the great work, Bruce & David! Your Friend in Rextra-Large Camo, Rex Colorado

Simply Amazing! In 40+ years of hunting I've never seen or experienced a ranch that is so meticulously managed. From the minute you enter the front gate, through the facilities, breeder pens, every fence line, pastures, lakes, creeks / marsh areas and through the densely wooded forestry one can see that the owners and management of CCR take tremendous pride and great care in their operations. There is an unending assortment of wildlife including: Bison, Axis, Bluckbuck, Fallow, Red Deer, Oryx, Addax, Ostrich, Amazing White Tails and even a Wildebeest. All of the animals are beautiful and incredibly healthy, which is another testament to CCR's unending commitment to breeding and purveying the finest stock to anyone interested in purchasing and stocking their own ranch. You simply have to see to believe and once you encounter the owners and their staff you'll "get it".

We had the opportunity to spend a few days over the holidays at Cold Creek Ranch, and I have to say, I have not seen its equal in terms of the number and quality of exotic animals on a ranch. The bison; axis, blackbuck, fallow and red deer; ostrich; wildebeast; orynx; and addax we saw were all in superior shape, which says a lot about their operation.Right up there with the quality of their animals is the Lodge, which is something to see/experience. Impeccably maintained, and complete with top notch gym and recreational room (billiard & shuffle board table), you not only get to enjoy your hunt/purchasing experience, but the entire stay as well. Top Notch across the board!

As a farm and ranch broker and ranch owner over the last 20 years, I have had the privilege of visiting many of Texas finest ranches. The Cold Creek Ranch in Bellville, TX. is at the top of the list. There is something unique and special about this ranch, mainly the people who are involved in running a tier one wildlife management program for both native and exotic animals and their commitment to excellence in the health and genetics of these species makes the Cold Creek Ranch a dependable go to source for trophy tier one exotics to several other ranches throughout Texas. It is simply the best kept secret in the state. Frank Blackwood, President, Blackwood Properties.
