Property Description
Spanning an impressive 2,433 acres in the heart of Northern California, Blacktail Ridge Ranch is a rare opportunity to own a private, turnkey recreational and legacy property just east of Paynes Creek. With an ideal blend of water, wildlife habitat, and sweeping topography, this ranch delivers both seclusion and accessibility—located approximately 15 minutes from Mineral and just 25 minutes from Lassen Volcanic National Park. The ranch is richly appointed with five reservoirs, multiple natural springs, and abundant water resources that support thriving wildlife and enhance the land’s year-round usability. An extensive network of over 11 miles of interior roads provides exceptional access across varied terrain, with elevations ranging from approximately 1,900 to 3,100 feet, capturing breathtaking diversity in landscape and views. Improvements include two cabins, two shops, and a garage, thoughtfully positioned to create a highly private, off-grid compound. The property is powered by a robust combination of solar, battery storage, windmill, and generator systems, offering self-sufficient living without compromising comfort. The setting is nothing short of extraordinary—featuring one-in-a-million panoramic valley views along with dramatic vistas overlooking Battle Creek Canyon, making this property as visually captivating as it is functional. For the sportsman, Blacktail Ridge Ranch lies within the highly sought-after late-season G-1 Blacktail deer zone, known for producing quality bucks, along with superb quail hunting & abundant wildlife throughout the ranch. Adding to its appeal, the ranch is offered as a fully functioning operation, with the majority of personal property included in the sale, allowing for a seamless transition to the next owner. Mostly fenced & offering a rare combination of scale, water, access, & improvements, Blacktail Ridge Ranch represents a premier Northern California holding—ideal for recreation, hunting, or creating a lasting family legacy.
