469 Buckskin Gulch Rd, Cotopaxi, CO 81223

Located in some of Colorado’s most scenic mountain country, between Canon City and Westcliffe, this 61.32-acre parcel directly borders 555 acres of state land and tens of thousands of acres of BLM ground, offering unmatched opportunities for all manner of outdoor adventure. Defined by a landscape of wooded ridgelines and valleys, with numerous game trails and meadows, the ranch offers diverse terrain for hiking, hunting, and exploring, as well as numerous scenic viewpoints to take in the surrounding mountains. The seller has created an extensive network of trails (wide enough for a Polaris Ranger) extending deep into the property; a new owner could easily extend that trail network even further. There are very few neighboring landowners, and no neighbors in close proximity. A keypad-controlled gate limits access to this area, ensuring that only landowners can access adjacent public land. This property already has two high-quality, county-permitted buildings, including one (16x24) used as a hunting cabin (fully furnished, w/ a large front deck, camp kitchen and wood stove). The second building (12x16) is used for storage. There are multiple potential home sites on the property, including a large meadow in close proximity to the ranch’s entrance. A well is already in place, powered by a Yamaha generator the seller is including in a sale. This is an off-grid property; development would likely require solar power, common for homes in this region. There are solar contractors in the area equipped to bring electricity to any property. As a bonus, the seller will leave numerous tools (chainsaw, weed wacker, water tanks, road-grading attachments and more), in addition to two outdoor grills. The property draws abundant game and wildlife traffic (deer, elk, turkey, fox, lion, bear). Deer and elk make frequent use of the parcel’s extensive trail network. This property is inside GMU 691, and is close to GMU 85.
