500+ high-fenced acres, close to everything.
Sixty-three miles from Fort Worth.
Crown Point sits in Bosque County, 63 miles south of Fort Worth — roughly 45 minutes to an hour from the Metroplex. That’s close enough for a guest to fly into DFW and be on a blind before evening, and far enough out that the only lights at night are the ranch’s own.
For privacy and security reasons we don’t publish the ranch’s physical location. Invited guests receive directions and a gate contact ahead of their visit through the ranch office.
Outlaw country — literally.
Crown Point sits on ground that was once part of the historic Cauble Ranch at Kopperl — one of several Texas ranches in the empire of Rex Cauble, the wildcatter-turned-millionaire behind the Cutter Bill Western World stores and one of the most colorful figures the state ever produced. In 1978, that empire came apart. Federal agents seized a shrimp boat at Port Arthur loaded with tons of Colombian marijuana and unraveled what was then the biggest smuggling operation in Texas, run through Cauble’s ranches. The papers named the outfit the Cowboy Mafia, and in 1982 Cauble was convicted under federal racketeering law and forfeited his holdings — this country among them. The saga has been written about for decades and is now being developed as an HBO series.
The Cauble ranch was eventually broken up and sold off in tracts, and this is one of them. Years later, the Hamar family purchased the property and set about building something different. The high fence, the roads and water, the lodge and hotel on the hilltop, the whitetail program and fourteen exotic herds — all of it was developed by the family into the operation Crown Point is today. The outlaw chapter makes a good story around the fire. The one being written now is better.
Hear it from the family.
The Hamar story in the family’s own words — how a tract of old outlaw country became Crown Point, and what it’s being built into for the generations coming behind.
Managed for game, kept as a ranch.
The ranch runs 500+ high-fenced acres of Bosque County country with more than 120 feet of elevation change from the bottom land to its tallest peak — terrain that holds whitetail naturally and lets exotic herds spread out and act like wild animals. The lodge and on-site hotel sit on the highest point in the area, with one of the best views in the county.
Habitat work here is ongoing, not occasional: food plots, protein feeding, water, and cover are all managed as part of a year-round program. The result shows in the game — animals on Crown Point are healthy, mature, and abundant because the land is run to support them, season after season.
Set up to run, not just to look at.
The improvements on Crown Point are the kind a serious operator wants to inherit — already built, already working: a full guest lodge and on-site hotel, interior ranch roads, blinds, and a feeder network.
Why the ranch is kept private.
Crown Point isn’t a commercial operation with pressure to fill a calendar. Hunting on the ranch is limited and deliberate, which is exactly why mature animals are here in the numbers they are. Low pressure and consistent management are the whole strategy — and they only work because access is controlled.
Anyone with a serious interest in the property itself — its land, improvements, and game program — is welcome to contact the ranch office directly.
