What Can You Hunt at Rattlesnake Springs Ranch?
Updated
Rattlesnake Springs Ranch offers hunts for exotic game and whitetail deer, with day hunts as well as two- to four-day and weekend hunts. Meals, lodging, and guides are available. The ranch is a 1,288-acre high-fenced property in Camp Verde, Texas, between Bandera and Kerrville.
Game You Can Hunt
The ranch describes two main categories of hunting:
- Exotics — exotic game hunting is listed as a primary offering.
- Whitetail — whitetail deer hunting is the other main category.
The site does not break the exotic category down into individual species, so if you need to know exactly which exotic animals are currently available, that is a question to confirm directly with the ranch rather than assume from the page.
Hunt Formats
| Format | What the site states |
|---|---|
| Day hunts | Offered |
| Two- to four-day hunts | Offered |
| Weekend hunts | Offered |
| Meals | Available |
| Lodging | Available |
| Guides | Available |
The wording "available" matters here: the page presents meals, lodging, and guides as things the ranch can provide, not as automatically included in every hunt. Treat them as options to arrange when booking.
What the Location Means for Your Hunt
The ranch sits on 1,288 acres, is high-fenced, and is located in the Hill Country at Camp Verde, Texas, between Bandera and Kerrville. For a hunter, two practical implications follow:
- High-fenced means the game is contained within the property, so the hunt takes place inside a managed, bounded area rather than open range.
- Hill Country terrain is the setting you should expect for the hunt itself.
The site also mentions great fishing and photo galleries, so the property is not purely a hunting destination — useful if you are bringing someone who will not be hunting.
How to Decide If It Fits Your Trip
Ask yourself these questions before booking:
- Do you want a single-day hunt or a multi-day stay? The ranch lists day hunts alongside two- to four-day and weekend hunts, so both short and extended trips are on the table.
- Do you want exotics, whitetail, or either? Both are listed, but the page does not specify which exotic species are currently on the property.
- Do you need meals and lodging included? They are listed as available, which suggests you should confirm whether they are part of your specific package.
- Do you want a guided hunt? Guides are listed as available.
What the Page Does Not Tell You
The available information does not include pricing, season dates, bag limits, specific exotic species, or whether meals, lodging, and guides carry extra cost. If any of those determine your decision, contact the ranch directly before planning around them.
