If this is the one near Marathon, TX they are great, very accommodating, and they do have lodging. Very pleasant experience. Plan to go back this spring.

I'm going down in 2 weeks for turkeys and hogs. Todd has always emailed me back. Try toddmartin@wildblue.net If it's really, really good you won't hear much from me. I'm kinda bad about keeping a secret[LOL]

From what I see on the website, meals are not provided nor are stands. Good prices though. This is the Homer Martin ranch in Mason, correct?

Danny... rangercamp.com ....

" Ranger Camp Lodge affords comfortable lodging and exceptional, delicious, home-cooked meals for the enjoyment of our clients. "

Didn't get into it much to find out about the stands.

Ok, different place then. Does not look like it is bowhunting only though, noticed on the rules and policies page that no loaded rifles in vehicles or camp. Also has not been updated since 2010 for trophy pictures.

Must be talking about two different places...the one I'm talking about is a martin family ranch and does have lodging.....I quoted from their site above.

Yep, two different places, there is a website for Martin Family Ranch and Ranger Camp, both owned by a family named Martin and both in Mason. Good deer hunting around Mason, I used to have a 500 acre lease around there and we had lots of deer. The lady that owned it has since passed away and her niece who inherited has sold the place for gravel quarry.

Either way....the one I was trying to contact was a sponsor....and wanted to work out a deal on renewing and putting together a hunt.

Looks like they aren't interested as I can't get a response....now this is the rangercamp.com I'm talking about....don't want to confuse that with any other company.

The ad in Trad Archers is for Martin Family Ranch.  From my understanding Roger Camp Ranches is his brothers ranch.  And Homer Martin Ranch, also in Mason, is great all around.
