How Mesquite Grubbing Restores Native Grasses on Central Texas Rangeland

Mesquite has a complicated reputation in Texas. It's tough, it's iconic, and in small numbers it's just part of the landscape. But on rangeland where it's been left unmanaged for years, mesquite can spread aggressively and quietly take over ground that used to support real grazing capacity. Why Mesquite Takes Over Mesquite is deep-rooted, drought-tolerant, […]

Parks and his crew were very professional and communicative. We had a ton of rain this spring that kept delaying everything outside, but Parks spoke with me weekly updating me. Once here the work went beyond what I was expecting, they did areas that I did not expect and were right in line with what he quoted. I will have them back

We’ve had the opportunity to work alongside Cactus Creek Land Clearing on multiple projects, and they’ve been consistently top-notch every time. Their crew is professional, efficient, and knows exactly how to handle land clearing the right way. What really stands out is the quality of their work and the results they deliver. Every job we’ve been on together, their customers have been extremely happy, and it shows in how clean and well-prepared the properties are when they’re done. They’re easy to coordinate with, communicate well, and take pride in what they do—which makes a big difference when working on shared projects. If you’re in Kerrville or anywhere in the surrounding Hill Country and need land clearing, cedar removal, or property prep done right, I highly recommend Cactus Creek Land Clearing. We look forward to continuing to work with them on future jobs.

This company did a fantastic job building our road back after the July 4th flood. If you need road work done this is the company to use. They are very honest and professional. Thank you Parks.

We contracted Cactus Creek Land Clearing to remove cedar on roughly 65 acres of property in Medina, TX in March 2024. They came on time and on budget. More importantly, they literally transformed our property - exposing land formations and terrain features that were invisible when we purchased it. The raving comments we've received from other landowners and neighbors who have known this property for 50+ years is testament enough. Parks and his team were fantastic to work with - Professional, Polite, and Focused on bringing cedar covered property alive. Absolutely love ours and intend to do more in the next years.

Katy Chapman-Hanna

Phenomenal work. Cactus Creek has the equipment AND the staff/workers to get the job done! We were very impressed by their professionalism and commendable work ethic - will definitely be hiring them again for future projects!

Dave Latch

This was my second time having Cactus Creek come out and do some Cedar Clearing. They have a great team, their communication was excellent and the property looks like a new place. I will certainly be calling them the next time!

Eileen Naski

Couldn’t be happier with process and product. From the pre bid walk, to the A+ operator. Would highly recommend and will be using Cactus Creek services again.

Chris Rotge

Parks are crew are honest and reliable have made a great working relationship

John Davis

Let me begin by saying that we are very happy with the job Cactus Creek performed for us. We had 52 acres of mesquite to clear and they took care of everything they said they would. Parks bid the job and although it took them a bit longer than they originally accounted for in the bid contract due to unforeseen circumstances Jesse kept plugging away until it was finished for the original amount bid. Their hourly machine rates are competitive with others we solicited for bids. We are extremely happy with the results. Their work ethic and professionalism are top notch. I would not hesitate to use them again.
