Further elevating Phillips Ranch's standing as a premier sporting property is its state-of-the-art long-range shooting facility-designed for precision, performance, and an unmatched user experience.

Anchored by a significant natural creek system and complemented by a thoughtfully constructed private lake, the ranch offers a rare combination of functional and scenic water resources that elevate the land in both character and utility.

Little Haw Creek

Little Haw Creek forms the entire eastern boundary of the property, flowing south to north before joining Middle Haw Creek, ultimately feeding into Crescent Lake and the St. Johns River system as it continues toward Jacksonville.

Beyond its visual appeal, Little Haw Creek adds meaningful conservation and environmental significance to the ranch, with the corridor widely considered pristine-offering both ecological integrity and enduring natural beauty.
