Welcome to 1788 Fox Fire – A Private Mountain Escape located in the Fox Fire Ranch Subdivision. The property is ideally located just 17 miles east of Durango, CO. Discover your own slice of Colorado paradise on this stunning 51.9 acre, wildlife-rich property. This unique property offers privacy, recreation, and year-round access. The charming 600 SF 1 bedroom, 1 bath cabin comes fully furnished and ready for your next adventure. In addition to the cabin, the property has an RV pad complete with sewer and electrical hookups for those extra guests. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet weekend getaway or hosting friends and family, the large, covered porch overlooking a serene stock tank is the perfect gathering spot and a favorite for wildlife viewing. Explore the extensive ATV trails, relax at one of the multiple fire pits, or take in the sweeping views from the scenic overlook seating areas. Towering ponderosa pines provide shade and natural beauty throughout both the upper and lower portions of the property. Additional highlights include a gated entrance to the cabin with year round roads; a Zircon storage container for all your tools and gear; a water well on-site (although not yet connected to the home but available for future development of the property); and abundant wildlife and peaceful seclusion. For the hunter, you can hunt on the property or take advantage of the nearby access to the San Jaun National Forest which provides hunting opportunities in GMU 75 with over-the-counter bull elk tags available and buck tags typically being drawn with only 1 preference point. The property is also prime habitat for bear, turkey and small game hunting. Whether you’re a hunter, outdoor enthusiast, or just seeking a peaceful retreat, this property delivers. Bring your ATVs, bring your friends, and settle into this turn-key Colorado retreat!
