The Sabinal River Retreat is a riverfront recreational property with endless possibilities for future owners. Located less than 15 minutes from Lost Maples State Park, this area is famous for its pristine natural beauty and outdoor recreational appeal. The quaint town of Utopia is only 8 minutes from the property, and the town of Medina is less than a 30-minute drive. The Frio River, Medina River, and Sabinal River, all call this region of the Hill Country home, making it one of the most desirable areas for outdoor enthusiasts. The property features approximately 650 +/- feet of river frontage along the picturesque Sabinal River. During average rainfall years, the crystal-clear river provides endless recreational opportunities including swimming, fishing, kayaking, and bird watching. Wildlife on the property is abundant and include whitetail deer, axis deer, rio grande turkey, wild hogs, dove, and various other free roaming exotic game that inhabit the area. The land is mostly wooded forest and cleared meadows consisting mostly of Live Oak, Post Oak, Cedar, Mesquite, and Cypress trees. There is a small, plowed field on the western portion of the property, providing owners with the perfect opportunity to plant food plots for wildlife or grow crops for personal use. The current owners have selectively cleared brush throughout the property, as well as built a brand-new road connecting the entrance of the property to a potential building sight with views overlooking the cypress lined river bottom. The Sabinal River Retreat is a rare opportunity to own a recreational investment in one of the most sought-after natural areas in the state.
