Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Mico, Texas

Mormon Bluff is a rare 760+/- acre lakefront ranch in Medina County near Mico, combining extensive Medina Lake frontage, historic family ownership, unspoiled native landscape, and recreational appeal. Located approximately 18 air miles west of Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort and Spa and within a 50-minute drive of San Antonio International Airport, the ranch offers privacy with convenient city access. Retained by the same family for 108 years, Mormon Bluff features mature oak and cedar, grassy meadows, and healthy hardwoods. Approximately 120 feet of elevation change creates diverse terrain, from secluded draws and elevated ridges to dramatic overlooks.

The ranch's defining feature is approximately 2.2 miles of Medina Lake shoreline, encompassing iconic landmarks including Mormon Bluffs, Sawmill Cove, and Polecat Hollow. A central hilltop offers an exceptional homesite for a private residence or lodge, with sweeping ranch and lake views. Less than five percent of the property lies within the 100-year floodplain, allowing flexibility for future improvements. The ranch encompasses both sides of wet-weather Koenig Creek and includes two functioning water wells serving livestock and wildlife. Huntable populations include aoudad, other free-ranging exotic species, whitetail deer, javelina, and native South Texas game. With no substantial vertical improvements, Mormon Bluff is well suited for a private lakefront retreat, family hunting ranch, or multigenerational estate. Low property taxes, minimal infrastructure, and low carrying costs further enhance its appeal. Mormon Bluff combines extensive shoreline, distinctive landmarks, mature hardwoods, diverse terrain, abundant wildlife, and development flexibility in a largely undisturbed landscape near San Antonio.
