Rawhide Vistas, a place of new horizons




Rawhide Vistas is a place of new horizons. It is the newest project in Gaines Bend on Possum Kingdom Lake. Rawhide Vistas features four architecturally designed home options, each one unique, and carefully crafted to perfection. Tim Hester, partner in Rawhide Vistas, stated that there are upgrade features available for these homes such as Bosch appliances and hand scrapped wood floors. Anyone that purchases one of the designer homes will be able to use it as a vacation rental property. According to Shawn Gibson, partner in Rawhide Vistas, the vacation rental homes market is untapped here at Possum Kingdom Lake. Neeley's Vista, a 3200 square foot home, boasts some of the best views on Possum Kingdom Lake. An open floorplan and unobstructed lake views are just two of the features that make Neeley's Vistas our premier home. Contact the folks at Rawhide Vistas for pricing on these spectacular homes. The Brazos Ranch House, a single story, 2400 square foot home, features beautiful interior stonework and an open floorplan that takes full advantage of the breath taking views from atop the bluffs of Neeley's Slough. Construction on the first Brazos Ranch House is complete and ready for you to move in for only $499,000. As a bonus, this home has been outfitted with several of the available upgrades. The Ridgecrest Lodge features a two story, 2200 square foot open floorplan. The second floor living area and patio take full advantage of the amazing views of Possum Kingdom Lake. Construction of the first Ridgcrest Lodge is expected to be complete by November 2012. Pricing for these beautiful homes begin at $449,000. The Prairie Cabin is a fantastic 1800 square foot, two story home. The second story allows for lake views of Possum Kingdom. The Prairie Cabin is perfect for the PK lifestyle with attractive pricing beginning at $399,000. Planned amenities in Rawhide Vistas include a pool complex, guest cabins and common areas. Other amenities in Gaines Bend include a marina, planned network of hiking and biking trails and 200 acres of planned parks and green space. The master plan for Gaines Bend consists of nearly 800 new home sites, condominiums and town homes. With a low density orientation, homes will be situated on lots with an average size of .5 ace with abundant green spaces. That equates to roughly one home per acre. Rawhide Vistas is phase one of this master plan. When you think about Possum Kingdom Lake think of reveling in the outdoors and a multitude of lake activities - boating, swimming, fishing, paddle boarding, hiking, biking and exploring or even sitting on the veranda with a glass of wine enjoying a relaxing evening. The views from atop the bluffs on the quiet and calm Neeley's Sough are like no other. Rawhide Vistas gives the very best of what Gaines Bend and Possum Kingdom has to offer, with a value and lifestyle that is second to none.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Feb. 19)

FAIR. Water stained; 48 degrees; 0.18 feet below pool. Expect the water temperature to drop a couple degrees during this next cold front. Stripers are fair in 20-40 feet of water with live bait, or deadsticking with pink jig heads with fluke tails. If deadsticking, stay still and let the fish come to you. Hold your rod still and set the hook at the slightest hint of a bite. If using live bait, put your baits in the water and just slowly move around until you catch a fish. Once you catch a fish, stay there for a little bit and try to catch a few more. Sandbass are fair. Look for them in 20-40 feet of water with live shad. Some can be caught using small deadstick baits, too. Catfish are still fair to good up the river near Rock Creek Camp. Cut shad is producing good numbers of fish in 2-5 feet of water fished on or near the bottom. Some people like to use cut carp and Buffalo and have good luck with that. It might be worth a try if no other fresh bait is available. Water clarity is steady at 1-8 feet of visibility and slightly stained. Report by TJ Ranft, Ranft Guide Service. Bass slow but will bite when located. Bottom baits such as jigs and bottom bumping crank baits. Bass biting from deep to shallow depths following shad movement. Located in typical winter locations. Report by JK Outdoors Bass Fishing Guide.
