Your wildcatter experience begins

Wildcatter Ranch is a working 1,500-acre Texas guest ranch built on land rooted in the state's oil heritage, offering a stay that's equal parts relaxing, adventurous, and unmistakably Texan. You’ll experience the kind of genuine hospitality that comes from a team who's been part of this ranch for years who love sharing this place with others.

Considerations When Visiting Wildcatter Ranch

Before you arrive, read through this important information about getting around the ranch, seasonal conditions, dining, and what to expect during your stay.

  1. Wildcatter Ranch and Resort is a very large property. You will need a car to enjoy it. The horse barn, where most activities take place, is in the valley, while the Steakhouse and Lodging are up on the mountaintop. Please note this distance is not walkable. 
  2. Breakfast and Dinner are served daily, but Wildcatter Steakhouse is not open for lunch outside of Boxed Lunches. You can order these at check-in! 
  3. You will likely want to enjoy the small town of Graham (about 15 minutes away) for lunch and shopping. Mineral Wells (about 30 minutes away) and Possum Kingdom Lake (about 45 minutes away) are also nearby and great places to shop, eat, and enjoy fun activities. 
  4. Summer heat can restrict our summer activities to the morning only.
  5. Wildlife and insects do exist at Wildcatter. We are a Ranch! You will encounter wildlife while here, but we do our best to keep them all outside. Don’t be alarmed if they do sneak inside sometimes! 
  6. Around August through November is CRICKET SEASON, and you will encounter crickets (bugs) in the buildings, rooms, and on the property. 
  7. Wildcatter is more than a hotel with a full-service, open-7-days-a-week Steakhouse, gift shop, horse herd, and ranch activities, with additional amenities. We fall in the “boutique resort” category. We do not offer room service, laundry service (for your personal clothes), or other amenities typically associated with a full-scale resort. We consider ourselves somewhere in between!

Explore Beyond Our Ranch


Wildcatter Ranch is the perfect home base for exploring North Texas. Just 15 minutes away, historic downtown Graham invites you to browse local boutiques, antique shops, museums, and restaurants in the largest downtown square in America! Looking for more adventure? Possum Kingdom Lake and Mineral Wells are between 30 minutes from the ranch, making it easy to spend the day on the water before returning for a mesquite-grilled steak, panoramic views, and another unforgettable Texas sunset.
