Overview

This 12+ acre waterfront tract offers more than 1,500 feet of South Arkansas River frontage, with a level building site located near the river. The property’s terrain includes a mix of mature aspen groves, tall pine trees, and open mountain meadows, creating varied scenery and a natural setting for a private retreat or recreational property.

Year-round access is available via a county-maintained road. The land borders National Forest and is adjacent to the Colorado Trail, placing outdoor recreation within direct reach for hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing. A nearby Fooses Creek Trailhead provides access to some of the area’s scenic alpine routes.

For buyers seeking quiet, nature-oriented use, this site supports a range of plans from a primary or legacy mountain residence to a dedicated outdoor getaway. Its river setting, National Forest adjacency, and proximity to established trail access may appeal to those who want to spend time outdoors from the property while maintaining practical access for daily use.
