For the first time ever, H. Yturria Ranch – La Joya Division will be open to guests of Martin Refuge, by appointment only March 15 thru May 15, 2009.
Located ten miles north of La Joya, Texas and a mere five miles from the gate of Martin Refuge’s “Javelina” property, the H. Yturria Ranch will take your trip to new heights. Wake to the sounds and smells of remote South Texas in the comfort of your private two-bedroom, one-bath house! Early coffee and breakfast to suit your group will be provided in the central dining/lounging headquarters building. Then off to photograph at Martin Refuge. Return mid-day to the ranch. Charge your batteries and play with photos in the spacious headquarters, or simply relax in your own quarters. Lunch with the group and enjoy coffee on the wraparound porch, from where you might see wild turkey, quail, deer or other wildlife visiting the pond in the center of camp. In the afternoon your guide will take you back to the “Javelina” or more photography, then return to the ranch for dinner and camaraderie around the fire-pit.
Facilities: Two air-conditioned ranch houses – each with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, living/kitchen area with table and refrigerator. Large headquarters has fireplace, lounge areas, full kitchen and lots of outlets. Cell phone coverage but no Internet.
GROUP SIZE 4-8 (more with special arrangements)
