Lane and Pattii have been part-owners and managers of the 5F Ranch for 14 years. Moving to the current location in 2008. They host hunters and guests year round all the while caring for the abundant wildlife on the ranch. They raise an estimated 120 whitetail deer which are for sale and breeding, a few released for hunting. They were residents of New Braunfels for 17 years prior to this and Lane sold computers for AT&T while Pattii raised their 3 children and led a bible study.

The owners, Mike and Cindy, sold their previous ranch and moved closer to the beautiful Hill Country with this property. It is covered in native pecan groves and a variety of oaks. It has the Blanket Creek running through the ranch and several ponds filled with fish. There are fields of native grasses with Blackbuck Antelope, Axis, Scimitar Horned Oryx and Whitetail grazing daily. Waterbuck live in the creek bottoms and Rams roam the property. A once thriving settlement of Blanket Creek left behind an historic cemetery from the mid to late 1800's. This ranch is an amazing respite from busy life full of fun, adventure and wildlife!

Our place offers hummingbird viewing in season, wildlife safari's, amazing sunrises and sunsets, a view of the Milky Way on a dark night or thousands of fireflies in early summer at dusk. Animals roam free over the entire property with exception of our deer pens that contain the sweetest deer on earth. Come feed them by hand and pet a deer or in season hold and feed a fawn! Our pond is crystal clear and spring-fed where we enjoy cooling off with a swim on a hot summer afternoon or fishing at dusk. Sometimes we go hunting for arrowheads or look for remnants of the Blanket settlement that was nearby the historic cemetery. There is always something to do and not enough time to do it in. Many nights we drink a glass of wine around the campfire and tell stories. Our back porch is huge and offers a bbq, an electric smoker, a sporting clay wobble unit and a view for miles! Maybe we will go to the gun range and shoot pistols at any one of 5 different types of targets or sight in our rifles at the 50 or 100 yard targets. Usually every afternoon we take a tour of the ranch with a cocktail and view the abundant wildlife as the sun sets in our Polaris Ranger or Kawasaki Mule. After dark there is a beautiful pool table, card table, indoor fireplace, large bar and TV in the Lodge gathering area. This ranch is a complete vacation - there is no reason to leave and you won't want to!
