Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This offering consists of two separately deeded parcels located north of Vallecito, totaling 1.02 acres. The property includes a water well that was drilled in September 2025, with Division of Water Resources records indicating a 90-foot depth, a static water level of 50 feet, and a production rate of 25 gallons per minute. A signed sewer agreement is also in place to connect to Upper Valley Sanitation. The land is described as very flat and buildable, which may help reduce excavation needs compared to other lake-area parcels.
The location is in La Plata County, near Vallecito Lake, with access to recreation in the immediate area. Public remarks note nearby trailheads for the Weminuche Wilderness, as well as opportunities for lake and stream fishing, boating, hiking, backpacking, cross country skiing, and big game hunting.
For buyers looking for recreational property, these parcels provide practical site infrastructure already underway through the installed well and the sewer agreement. The combination of buildable terrain and on-site water support can be beneficial for planning a future cabin or other small development within a recreation-focused setting.
