The outstanding working pens and facilities at the Diamond Peak Unit are especially impressive, equipped with covered hay storage, scales, manager and worker housing, and a breathtaking view of the ranch’s surroundings. From the miles of stunning white board fencing to the sturdy pipe pens, paddocks, and reliable barbed wire adorning the cross fences, the ranch’s fencing is both visually appealing and highly functional.
Not only are the owners’ homes of exceptional quality, offering both comfort and sophistication with their impeccable finishes and well-designed floorplans, but the ranch also boasts four more exceptional homes nestled in various locations on the mountain. These strategically placed residences provide optimal access and privacy, allowing residents and guests to immerse themselves in the tranquility and beauty of the surroundings. Furthermore, six other impeccably maintained homes on the ranch ensure staff members feel right at home.
The road system throughout the Double V Ranch is genuinely second to none. The road network allows for seamless navigation across the property by offering excellent access to the approximately 25,000 acres of deeded and state land enclosed within the ranch’s boundary fences. The ranch’s borders extend for approximately 10 miles along the White Mountain Wilderness area and United States Forest Service land, providing exceptional summer grazing and hunting opportunities. It is incredibly rare to find such vast high-quality public land that is so challenging to access from regions outside the ranch.
Renowned for its hunting, the Double V Ranch is located in Game Management Unit 36. Bordered by Wilderness areas, the ranch provides excellent access to highly coveted hunting tags. The ranch currently holds 21 unit-wide transferable Bull tags for Unit 36, and 15 bull tags, nine either-sex tags, and six cow tags for the Vista de Valle Ranch Unit. The Diamond Peak Unit of the ranch is operated based on the owners’ discretion to ensure optimal game and forage management. There are excellent numbers and quality of animals on the ranch, and Unit 36 is very well known for trophy elk, mule deer, and Pronghorn. Wild Merriam’s turkey, black bear, scaled quail, and an occasional white-tailed deer can also be harvested on the ranch. With high success rates and the chance to encounter the bull of a lifetime, the hunting experience on the ranch is unparalleled. The ranch’s unique location, nestled amidst Church Mountain and several other peaks, offers protection and challenging terrain, making it an ideal habitat for high-quality wildlife.
Water is efficiently managed through an intricate pipeline network that draws from wells and springs. With 18 operational wells, the Double V Ranch ensures ample water supply for rotational grazing and wildlife. Additionally, miles upon miles of power lines have been thoughtfully laid out, reaching almost every corner and section of the property. This strategic planning allows for future benefits and potential new additions and development opportunities within the ranch.
Furthermore, the ranch borders State Highway 380 and County Road 37, which are both well-maintained paved roads that ensure year-round access without compromising the privacy and seclusion of the ranch’s tranquil setting. Ruidoso is a popular destination just 20 minutes south of the ranch, offering plenty of amenities, fine dining, and even a ski resort.
With world class hunting, direct access to thousands of acres of pristine public land, incredible improvements, and a top notch location, the Double V Ranch provides an exceptionally rare opportunity for those looking to acquire their own legacy ranch.
