One thing Texans are big on is tradition – so why not live in a community rich in tradition and history?  This is Phillips Creek Ranch.  Located north of Dallas in the city of Frisco, Phillips Creek Ranch was actually known around the world as Phillips Ranch.  B.F. Phillips Sr. started the ranch in 1936 with 640 acres which over the years grew to more than 1,800 acres. 

Phillips Ranch was a working cattle ranch and in the early 1950’s, B.F. Phillips Jr began raising quarter horses.  The youngest Phillips son became world-renowned in the horse breeding circuit and bred and trained Dash for Cash, his sorrel stallion.  Dash for Cash was the “Champion of Champions” in both 1976 and 1977 – the only horse in history to win the distinction twice.
