About This Property

Just seven miles east of Estes Park, Colorado, this secluded 80-acre property offers the perfect off-grid mountain retreat. Accessed through a locked gate, it provides total privacy and direct access to hundreds of thousands of acres of Roosevelt National Forest, much of which is inaccessible to the general public. The land features a beautiful mix of terrain, from lush meadows and ponderosa pines at the base to lodgepole pines and scattered aspens at higher elevations. Wildlife is abundant, with regular sightings of elk, mule deer, moose, black bear, turkeys, and grouse.

The property lies within GMU 20, a highly desirable hunting unit where cow elk, deer, and bear tags can currently be drawn with no preference points. Turkey tags are available over the counter, bull elk tags typically require 4 to 7 resident preference points, and moose tags are available through a lottery. Beyond hunting, the property borders public lands ideal for hiking and backpacking, while the Big Thompson River at the community entrance offers excellent fishing. Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park are just minutes away.

Improvements include an old outhouse, fire pit with grill grate, and a few lawn chairs. Multiple building sites on the upper portion of the property offer panoramic views, or the possibility also exists to build on the lower portion of the property, with excellent potential for an off-grid cabin or retreat. A neighboring property owner has expressed a willingness to work with a future buyer on a potential easement to access to the lower portion of the property. With no grid power, solar and propane are the most practical options.

Whether you're seeking a hunting camp, seasonal getaway, or private mountain retreat, this property offers an exceptional opportunity to own a truly secluded piece of Colorado. The property does not have a permanent address; the address number is the parcel number. Four-wheel drive and adequate ground clearance are recommended for access.
