18650 SE 72 Ave , Inglis, FL 34449(Levy County)

I spent about three years traveling around the world, mainly bow hunting everywhere from Africa and all across the United States and visiting ranches and outfitters and all of those places. And I saw many, many things that they were doing right, and I also saw many, many things that they weren't doing so right. And from that I put together a checklist of what I wanted to accomplish here at Ross Hammock Ranch and that was my blueprint for building this operation with wonderful lodging, welcoming archery hunters and rifle hunters with rifle ranges, archery ranges, cleaning rooms, walk-in coolers, taxidermy butcher services to make it a one-stop shopping, basically to have a world-class outdoor experience. - Harold Ross, Landowner, Ross Hammock Ranch

Old Florida Luxury Accommodations:

Ross Hammock Ranch is as much about hospitality and sharing God’s great outdoors with others as it is about hunting. The ranch features two distinct lodging options: the two story, real log cypress cabin is famous in hunting circles. The setting is 100% Florida and backs up to a blackwater creek and cabbage palm hammock. It’s a hunting camp on steroids. The five-bedroom, thirteen-bed, three-and-a-half-bathroom lodge built for comfort, fellowship with others and entertaining friends. With a sports bar, media room, and billiards, the lodge can easily host large groups, making it perfect for corporate retreats or family getaways.

The original three-bedroom, two-bathroom rustic cypress log cabin built in the 1990s, offering a cozy, yet more rustic atmosphere.

One of the things that separates this property from others is the utility or usability. People often forget the importance of preparing wild game meat and the process that goes alongside it. Ross Hammock has this perfected.

Endless Recreation & Future Potential:

On site, the ranch touts a 200-yard rifle range, an elevated archery practice range, year-round recreational experiences, and an extensive trail system for hiking, hunting, biking, or riding.

"Ross Hammock is the ultimate in "cast and blast." One can hunt big game in the morning and catch the afternoon tide on the nearby flats for redfish or snook. - Jon Kohler

The ranch is also conveniently located near major urban centers, with access to Crystal River’s private airport just 15 minutes away. The gulf is just 10 minutes away and Crystal River's boutique shops and cafes are 25 minutes away. It's 30 minutes to Cedar Key's fishing guides. Gainesville is just over an hour away, and Ocala is just 58 minutes away. As the surrounding area continues to develop, including potential future toll road extensions, the property offers significant long-term investment potential.

"This area has a lot to offer. If you don't want to go out bow hunting, you can hop in your car and ride over to Cedar Key, which is about a 30-minute drive, 10 minutes from here, you go out to the saltwater of the Gulf of Mexico. Crystal River is only 12 miles to the south with all its shopping and restaurants and diversity there. And then also it's important that Seven Rivers Hospital is only about five minutes away from here and that's a good feeling. That's now owned by Tampa General, one of the best medical operations in the state of Florida and all of that's right here. So again, it's a rural setup, but with all the comforts of home and all the amenities that you'd want to find." - Harold Ross, Landowner, Ross Hammock Ranch

"If I had my way "Old Florida" would stay "Old Florida" but then again one of the great things about Florida is the massive wealth appreciation of our lands. Ross Hammock is now only a few miles from the most recent planned terminus of the Suncoast Turnpike which quickly and easily connects Inglis to the wealth centers of Central Florida. While I don't know if Duke Energy's plans will ever come to fruition, if they do this once sleepy town's financial prospects will change forever." - Jon Kohler

Ross Hammock Ranch is the ultimate high fence shooting preserve and a unique opportunity to steward a unique piece of Florida’s wilderness that has been managed for wildlife for 26 years. This property has entertained guests from around the world, creating lasting memories through its exceptional blend of hunting and hospitality.

"There are currently no conservation easements on Ross Hammock. This would be a great opportunity to monetize the development rights. That being said, part of this property is technically in the city limits and there is considerable upside one would be giving up." - Jon Kohler

"This is the ideal property for someone who wants to enjoy world-class hunting on their own place. The client list and repeat customers here are phenomenal if they wished to offer hunts to pay for annual operating costs, or more. Someone could certainly keep that going with the seasoned staff or minimize the paid hunts to suit their own level of privacy. I know a lot of landowners would love to have that option." - Jon Kohler
