Karankawa Plains is a hunting & nature tourism resort, located on the Texas Gulf Coast. Birdwatching, wildlife viewing, canoeing, & horseback riding are spring and summer activities. Hunting of migratory waterfowl, including ducks, geese, and cranes, and game, including, feral hogs, deer and upland game, including quail and dove, highlight fall and winter activities.

Hunts for feral hog or deer, in one of the 27 single and double deer blinds, offer both the beauty of virgin forests and the chance to land quality game. Our deer herd has been actively managed for over 10 years on 20,000 acres and now produces some of the highest quality deer on the Upper Texas Gulf Coast. Guided goose and duck hunts bring hunters to some of the richest winter feeding ground on the gulf coast. 

To the site, in fact, where PBS filmed footage for a television production of Paul Gallico's book The Snow Goose. Pintail and teal share prairie ponds with geese, while mallard and wood duck abound along the banks of creeks and sloughs.

For those who seek variety, Karankawa also offers guided hunts for Sandhill Cranes, pheasant, and coyote. These can be scheduled in addition to waterfowl, deer, and hog hunting.

When we say full service, we mean it! From the clothes on your back to the shells for your gun, all the details can and will be taken care of.

Karankawa Plains provides a gun sighting range and a skeet machine for practice in your free time. Hunters are welcome to bring their own dogs, but this is not necessary. Game processing is available as well as cold storage for those who do their own processing, and we also have an excellent local taxidermist.
