Property Description
A Legacy Sandhills Ranch Defined by Scale and Stewardship Since 1887 Spring Lake Ranch represents a rare opportunity to acquire a large, contiguous, and highly functional ranch in the heart of Nebraska's Sandhills. With roots dating back to 1887, the ranch reflects generations of stewardship, evolving into a modern, highly productive operation while maintaining the integrity of the land it was built upon. Spanning 14,610.96± total acres, including 13,037.08± deeded acres and 1,573.88± acres of Nebraska State School Land lease, the ranch offers the scale, natural resources, and operational consistency sought by serious operators and long-term investors alike. A Proven and Balanced Cattle Operation Spring Lake Ranch is a well-balanced Sandhills operation capable of supporting approximately 700 cow-calf pairs on a year-round basis, depending on management practices. Spring Lake Ranch is currently divided into 23 well-fenced pastures featuring mainly 4-strand barbed wire fencing designed to support efficient rotational grazing and long-term grass management practices. The combination of fencing and water distribution allows for improved grazing control, livestock efficiency, and range stewardship A strong base of native Sandhills grass, combined with productive wet and sub-irrigated hay meadows, provides a dependable forage system that supports a true year-round cattle operation. A significant asset to Spring Lake Ranch is its approximately 2,000± acres of productive sub-irrigated meadows, a highly sought-after feature within the Nebraska Sandhills. Fed by the shallow groundwater table associated with the Ogallala Aquifer, these meadows provide dependable hay production and high-quality grazing opportunities while contributing to the overall balance and sustainability of the ranching operation. Exceptional Water Resources Water is one of the defining strengths of Spring Lake Ranch and a key component of its long-term sustainability and operational reliability. Located above the Ogallala Aquifer, one of the largest and most important freshwater aquifers in the world, the ranch benefits from exceptional groundwater resources that have supported Sandhills ranching operations for generations. The shallow water table characteristic of this region contributes to the ranch's abundant wetlands, lakes, flowing wells, sub-irrigated meadows, and reliable livestock water systems. The ranch is extensively developed with livestock water infrastructure, including 29 windmills and 4 solar wells strategically positioned throughout the operation. Combined with natural springs, ponds, lakes, and wetlands, these water sources provide dependable year-round water distribution across the ranch. In a region where water availability and distribution directly impact operational success, Spring Lake Ranch stands apart with both exceptional natural water resources and substantial infrastructure investment already in place. Certified Organic & Forward-Thinking Stewardship Spring Lake Ranch is a Certified Organic operation, reflecting a long-term commitment to responsible land management and sustainable production practices. The ranch has been managed with a focus on regenerative grazing principles that support soil health, water retention, and long-term productivity. These practices position the property within a broader landscape of evolving agricultural and environmental markets, offering potential opportunities for future participation depending on buyer objectives. Improvements Supporting Efficient Operations The headquarters is well-equipped to support both owner-operators and professional ranch management.
