About This Property
McPhee Ridge Ranch | 36 Acres with Unmatched 360-Degree Views & National Forest Access Arguably some of the best views in Southwest Colorado! McPhee Ridge Ranch offers approximately 36 acres of panoramic views, diverse terrain, and direct access to the San Juan National Forest, all just 10 minutes from Dolores and 15 minutes from Cortez. The seller has already carved a road leading to an elevated building site along the ridgeline, offering breathtaking 360-degree views of some of the region's most iconic landmarks. From this vantage point, take in sweeping views of McPhee Reservoir to the east, Narraguinnep Reservoir to the west, Lone Cone Mountain to the north, the distant La Plata Mountains to the east, and the dramatic cliffs of Mesa Verde and Sleeping Ute Mountain to the south.
Few properties offer this many recognizable landmarks from a single location. The land itself features a unique mix of topography, with an elevated ridgeline overlooking a valley that cuts through the property. This natural diversity provides character, privacy, and excellent wildlife habitat, with elk and mule deer frequently moving through the area. The property's eastern boundary adjoins the San Juan National Forest, providing direct access to public land and the McPhee Reservoir area for hunting, hiking, and outdoor recreation.
With electricity available at the property line, a Montezuma Water Company tap reportedly available (buyer to verify availability, connection requirements, and associated costs), and an established road leading to the elevated building site, much of the groundwork has already been laid for a future mountain home or recreational retreat. Enjoy the seclusion and expansive views of a rural mountain property without sacrificing convenient access to the amenities of Dolores and Cortez. Property Details: Approximately 36 acres will be surveyed and divided from an existing 59-acre tract prior to sale. The parcel boundaries shown on the provided map are estimates only. Final acreage, parcel identification number, boundaries, and legal description are subject to completion of the survey.
