Winter Falls Ranch is now on solar! This 1455+/- acre ranch is truly an amazing property. Cattle, hay and wild rice along with outstanding waterfowl hunting. An extra bonus is the landowner deer tags the owner can obtain through Fish and Wildlife. The water is distributed by flood irrigation, producing alfalfa, grass hay, alfalfa/grass mix hay and wild rice. The solar power will cover the entire ranch, including pumps, homes and shop. 525 +/- acres in hay, 120 +/- acres irrigated pasture and 168 +/- acres of wild rice. There are 5 ag wells, (one not in use) two ditch pumps and a spring pump all tied together, producing well over 10, 000 GPM. distributed through the property with underground mainline and return ditch system. The remaining property is used for grazing and feed lot with a mixture of pines, oaks and juniper. The south 193 acres is under a WRP conservation easement for enhanced habitat, flood irrigated now used for hunting and grazing. Around 30 acres are in the headquarters, barns, shop, corrals and two homes. Now runs 350 spring and fall caving pairs, plus 50 replacement heifers and 12 bulls, year-round. The ranch has had up to 500 head, depending on how you run the haying operation. Fully fenced and cross fenced multiple times, which makes rotating the cows to different pastures a 1 or 2 person operation. There are several year-round and seasonal springs, year-round ponds, as well as a seasonal creek which creates a spectacular waterfall over the lava rock bluff. There are two roads into the ranch, one at the base of the bluff and one coming down off the bluff via Day Road. The ranch had house is 1400 sf with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a full basement. This house is located just north of the ranch headquarters. The main home is at the south end of the ranch. It is 1500 sf with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a full basement. Both homes sit at the base of the bluff and have nice decks capturing the incredible views of Mt. Shasta, Mt. Lassen and valley. The waterfowl hunting is outstanding, and the ranch qualifies for 2 landowner deer tags available through Fish and Wildlife. The Williamson Act is in place in the Shasta County portion of the ranch. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a ranch that has excellent history, very well maintained with the benefit of privacy, beauty and fantastic hunting and bass fishing. Good production records are available to qualified buyers. Some equipment and cattle are available for sale, but not included in asking price.
