This beautiful mountain property exists in an area that offers a private two-mile stretch of world-class fly-fishing. The walk along the East River, which boasts of its abundance in trophy Rainbow and Brown Trout, is calm and peaceful. The 35+/- acre parcel is nestled at the base of the Red Mountain with captivating views of the Whetstone and Teocalli mountains, which tower over 13,000 ft. Surrounded by rich vegetation and foliage, you will find an abundance of spruce, aspen and open meadows full of wildflowers. The parcel has made improvements with a grated rock drive, utilities, and a well so you can make this your dream home or the perfect place to escape! Strategically placed are the homestead sites to maximize your privacy within the shard ranch community. The rich unspoiled forest that surrounds the community offers more than spectacular views. The community has 2 trout ponds, camping, cross country skiing, hunting opportunities, and approximately 8 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking, horse-back riding, etc. The property is in GMU 54 (with over-the-counter Elk tags and high success draw rates for Mule Deer tags), and Parcel 24 gives direct access to the 1 million acres of Gunnison National Forest which has otherwise difficult public access (the closest public access is miles away on foot). The ranch community development, known as The Reserve on the East River, has 24 luxury homesites located among 1,500+/- acres of immaculate mountain wilderness. The Reserve has a 643+/- Conservation Easement that prohibits development to prevent overcrowding of the area and to keep the area private and provide a rare and idyllic experience. For the horse admirer, the facility has on-site equestrian facilities with the option to board. The ranch offers full-time property management. You or your guests may book a room(s) at the main lodge (3 Bed/3 Bath), and/or rent out the entire guest house (3 Bed/3 Bath) to themselves. A great option for guests who want to come visit and enjoy all the amenities of the private community! While the property offers a secluded tranquility within nature, the amenities of the town of Crested Butte are only 10 minutes away.
