The Last Resort Ranch is located in Game Management Unit 58, which is a limited draw unit for Elk, Mule Deer, Bear and Antelope. The property is eligible to apply for big game tags through the Landowner Voucher program. The perfect mix of meadows, aspen groves, dark timber and live water make this ranch a haven for Elk, especially once hunting season starts. The current owners are careful to only hunt certain parts of the ranch, leaving other parts as sanctuary areas for the Elk and Deer to rest and feed. The unique combination of Merriam Turkeys and the occasional Antelope make this ranch on of the most diverse hunting properties on the market today. Even trout and ducks can be found in a few of the propertys 7 different ponds. Obviously, these serve as terrific water sources for both the wildlife and cattle that graze in the area. In addition, there are 2 stock tanks that help assure that the animals never have far to go for their next drink of water.

While the Last Resort Ranch offers opportunities to hike, camp, snowmobile, ski, sled, jeep, or just sit and watch the clouds float by, there are an amazing amount of additional recreational options in the general area as well. The famous rivers of the Arkansas and South Platte are both within half an hour drive of the ranch, as well as Spinney, Eleven Mile and Antero Reservoirs. The stunning depths of the Royal Gorge, gambling in the historic town of Cripple Creek, and breathtaking views from Pikes Pike are all within an hour of the ranch, so there is always something to keep you and your friends busy.

In summary, whether you are looking for a ranch for hunting, development, cattle grazing, or just relaxing, the Last Resort Ranch should be the first place you look! Call Mike Callan today to schedule your own private showing. Co-Listed with Biggs Real Estate Team
