Description
Vaquero Way Ranch is 162.85 acres of fully fenced cattle ground in Park County, Colorado. Located just East of Fairplay, this location is excellent for a future off-grid build or working cattle ranch. This property has incredible hunting opportunities as it borders over 5,400 acres of BLM and 9,200+ acres of James Mark Jones State Wildlife Area. Beautiful, snow-capped mountain views sit to the north, with towering pine forests of Reinecker Ridge to the west.
This location is also an angler’s paradise, lying just a short drive from multiple stretches of the South Platte River, including Tomahawk SWA, Spinney Mountain Reservoir, Eleven Mile Reservoir, the Dream Stream, and the North Fork of the South Platte River. For hunting, this property is part of Colorado’s GMU 50. With over 162 contiguous acres of land, this property qualifies for Colorado’s Landowner Preference Program and is a frequented area for elk, pronghorn antelope, and mule deer. The adjacent BLM and SWA land allows for recreational activities, including hunting, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and 4-wheeling. It is also close to Pike National Forest and some of the best skiing in Colorado, with just over an hour's drive to Breckenridge and Copper Mountain.
The property is being sold in ‘as is’ condition. It is fully fenced, with a North and South West gate. Improvements include a working well, septic, leased propane tank, and a dry cabin. Two loafing sheds and a stock tank sit beside the cabin near the wellhead. The open meadow has been utilized as a cattle ranch and show-horse operation. This is a proper ‘end-of-the-road’ location, with the entrance at the very end of Vaquero Way and only two adjacent neighbors on the north and south ends. With no covenants or restrictions, this property is an excellent opportunity for an off-grid homestead with mountain views or a sprawling working ranch for all your favorite farm animals.
