Public Remarks

Perfect for the outdoorsman, this property offers direct access to world-class fishing, and thousands of acres of BLM ground and national forest. Located directly adjacent to Colorado's Elevenmile State Park, South Shore Ranch presents a unique opportunity to own a full quarter-section of land in one of the world's greatest fishing destinations. This property is just 1,500 feet from Elevenmile Reservoir, and 5 miles from the "Dream Stream" of the South Platte River, with Spinney Reservoir just beyond. These waters are home to rainbow, brown, and cutthroat trout, Kokanee salmon, carp, and northern pike, with caught fish averaging around 16 inches. This property also borders BLM ground, which in turn borders the Pike National Forest. Fish on the South Platte, Elevenmile, or Spinney; hunt deer, elk, and antelope (this parcel is in hunting unit 58); and enjoy endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, ATVing/overlanding, and more. And, at 160 acres, South Shore Ranch meets the acreage requirement for landowner preference tags. The property has incredible mountain views, and plenty of wide, open space for building, and is easily accessed on a great road. Development will mean off-grid options, common for residential properties in this unspoiled area. This property's agricultural zoning offers many options: build up to 2 homes (more with county approval); develop a tourism-related business (a B&B, guest ranch, or commercial stable would be allowed); or continue to utilize the ranch's grazing. A new owner can also pursue subdivision of this parcel. This property currently has a grazing lease in place. In the event of a sale, the lease can be terminated with 30 days' notice. A buyer may opt to pursue continuation of the grazing lease.
