Why they chose this property
Serenidad Ranch has been in my family for five generations.  Along with my husband, Alan  Chapman and a wonderful group of people; we are renovating the ranch one project at a time.  SR has always been a working cattle property.  It is home to the Tahlequah Gun Club founded in 1972.  We have renovated 3 features on the ranch and are currently working on the fourth.  
What makes this property unique
Our location is one of our most unique benefits.  We are East of Tahlequah along the Illinois River, and only minutes away from Hwy 10 and all of the float rentals and public access areas.  The new biking/hiking trail, Tahlequah Trails is also minutes away from all locations on the ranch.
