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 (May 15)

GOOD. Water clear; 76 degrees; 0.22 feet below pool. Stripers are fair to good in 30-70 feet of water. Live bait is still the most consistent way to put fish in the boat, but some can be caught trolling lures on downriggers. Good colors are white, chartreuse, and silver if you decide to troll. Sand bass are slow, use live shad or small slabs and jigs. White, and silver are good colors. You will definitely have to look for scattered fish in 10-20 feet of water. Catfish are good in 30-50 feet of water with cut shad. Water clarity is steady at 2-10 feet of visibility. The north end of the lake is extremely muddy. Report by TJ Ranft, Ranft Guide Service. Fishing conditions are the same with a few bass in shallow water but transitioning deeper. Bass are good on topwaters in the mornings, then using worms later in the day in 12-15 feet of water. Report by JK Outdoors Bass Fishing Guide Service.
