About this space
At Buffalo Creek Farmhouse you will find yourself in the middle of the best west central Texas has to offer. This newly remodeled 1920's farmhouse is situated on a working sheep ranch. Find yourself enjoying the peace and quiet as you take in the surrounding beauty and a cup of coffee.
The space
Buffalo Creek Farmhouse is a 1,750 sq ft house with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. It is secluded with very few neighbors. If you are coming to the area to hunt, visit family, or just get away from the city lights, Buffalo Creek is the place for you!
Enjoy panoramic views from the front or back porch. Wildlife is abundant in the area. Deer, wild pigs, turkey, and all kinds of critters call this country home. We keep the area clean but it's not out of the question to encounter snakes in the spring, summer and early fall months.

This is a working ranch. We use guard dogs to protect our sheep from predators. These dogs generally stay with the sheep and you may see them when the flock wanders close to the house. The house is fenced off from the pasture where the sheep and dogs live so they won't be in the house yard. Please DO NOT try to pet or feed the dogs. They aren't aggressive unless they sense danger. It's their job to protect. Please enjoy them from a distance.
