The Ranch is a rural, 1,200-acre property without any public roads or access. It is crossed by two clear, coldwater creeks and freshwater springs abound on the property. The nearby Pearl River flows from north Mississippi south into the Gulf of Mexico. The valley is rich with forests, swamps, agricultural lands, cattle, and livestock ranches. These land and water resources and features support an ecosystem conducive to producing plentiful cover, habitat, and food for all wildlife. The hunting and shooting grounds on the Ranch are diverse in composition, inclusive of lush farmland, rolling grassland, hardwood bottom, and upland pine plantations. This landscape provides excellent wildlife habitat as well as beautiful vistas.
The Ranch offers half-day and full-day all-inclusive and wingshooting packages. The wingshooting season begins each year on October 1 and ends on March 15. Half-day wingshooting hunts start at $495. A full breakdown of rates is published on our website at www.therunningcreekranch.com. We also offer upland hunting memberships.
