Grace Sanctuary - Directions to the Land

Directions to the Land (from Austin / South of the Land)

1) Take Highway 183 North from Austin for approximately 53 miles to County Road 208 in Watson. {If
coming from the Austin airport, take 71 West to get to Hwy 183 North; mileage on 183 will be a little bit longer

Kifaru

(

10831 South Highway 183, Lampasas, TX 76550), a wild & exotic animal auction business, is

directly across the street

(

on the right

)

from CR 208,

which is on the left

Along the way you will go through Cedar Park, Leander and Seward Junction. Watson is 24 miles

from

Seward Junction. Watson is a very small community where 183 is intersected by RM 963. CR

208 is

just North of 963. Landmarks in Watson are: on the east side, a wood-frame church, a

cemetery and

Kifaru an exotic game enterprise, just after RM 963 and before CR 208; and on the

west side, the

entrance to Moffitt Ranch, just after CR 208.

2) Take a LEFT on County Road 208 West and continue for exactly 6.0 miles until you will see an
unimproved dirt road (South Rocky Trail) on the right. The street sign for South Rocky Trail sometimes
disappears from the road. A mailbox with the name DAVIS, and another marked CASON, is on the left side of
CR 208, opposite the turn.

Along the way you will cross 7 cattle-guards and 2 low-water-crossings before coming to the

unimproved

road where you will turn right. You will drive for almost 3 miles before coming to the first

cattle-guard. The

first low-water-crossing is after the third cattle-guard and is not dramatic, however

the second one is,

complete with flood gauge. This waterway is called South Rocky Creek. The

unimproved road is the

second opportunity to turn right, beyond this second low-water-crossing. CR

208 is a narrow road with

sharp turns,

encroaching trees

and

all manner of creature

(ie.,

cows, dogs, cats, coyotes, birds, others)

wandering about with wild abandon,

drive

cautiously

3) Turn RIGHT onto South Rocky Trail (the unimproved dirt road) from CR 208. Continue for 2.1 miles
to the end of the road. The entrance to the land is the gate on the RIGHT side, at the very end.

PLEASE RESPECT the neighbors by driving slowly on South Rocky Trail (do not exceed 20 mph),

keep the dust down, and limiting damage to the road surface.

Along the way (within the first mile) you will encounter narrow, sharp turns, cross the creek again

and

cross a drainage pipe that may not be completely covered, so proceed slowly. The creek bed is

solid

rock and is usually easy to get through. At the end of the second mile, you will come to a pair

of gates

that cross the road. Ours is the one on the right. Please be sure to close the gate after

coming

through.
