The Last Resort sits in a picturesque river valley with world class views in the shadow of the towering Medicine Bow Mountains and boasts 2+/- miles of a fantastic trout fishery in the Canadian River. With good access and nice functional improvements, one would be hard-pressed to find a better combination recreational property in an extremely desirable location. The fourth-generation property is being offered "turn key."The entirety of the ranch is characterized as riparian with exceptional stands of native grasses, shrubs and willows. The property is well-manicured with a number of good open meadows and dense willow thickets creating the necessary habitat for many game species. Bordering no federal or state land the property is as private as they come. A private drive services the property and a large neighbor surrounds the property on all sides making this land a truly extraordinary piece as far as privacy. The property has a nice fully functional and recently restored 1800+/- SF home containing 3BR and 2BA. With a new roof, new windows, siding, deck and complete interior remodel there is little to be done for a new owner to come in and enjoy immediately. The location of the home is ideal being right in the heart of the property offering outstanding views from the large deck of the Rawah peaks and the Canadian river right out your door. There is good phone service at the property and starlink satellite wifi. A recently constructed fully insulated pole barn spans 32x50' with 12x14' doors and offers utility for the storage of tools and equipment. Other improvements consist of a shooting range with precise placement of ballistic steel gongs offering the potential to shoot up to 1000 yards. An additional pistol range rounds out the sporting improvements. The property also has full perimeter fencing in good condition. There are numerous additional building sites for a new lodge/ home or additional outbuildings that would take in the captivating views of the property and the surrounding mountain ranges. The Last Resort is blessed with an abundance of live-water boasting 2+/- miles of both sides of the Canadian River running through the heart of the property. This place is the real deal for the fly-fishing enthusiast with many fish being caught in the 18-24" range. The section of river running though the property is some of the best water in the entire system. The natural habitat of the river is perfect for sustaining wild Brown and Rainbow trout populations, with cobble beds and natural meanders, riffles, runs, and pools. Being close to the headwaters this section of the Canadian tends to run cool and clear for most of the year. *The fish in the above pictures were caught a mere 50 yards from the deck. The protected willows and meadows on the property draw game animals year-round offering the opportunity to hunt Deer, Elk, and Moose on the deeded lands. Additionally, Elk, Deer and Bear hunting is fantastic in the forest land surrounding the property with good public hunting opportunities. This area is world-renowned for trout fishing being at the headwaters of the North Platte River with hundreds of lakes and streams draining from the surrounding mountain ranges into the valley to create the North Platte River that flows north into Wyoming. Many of these prime public fishing opportunities can be found within a short drive from the ranch. Overall, there are not many areas in the state that rival what North Park has to offer in the way of recreational opportunities for the outdoorsman. The property has a fantastic well with exceptional water quality to service the house with a recently installed post filtration system. The water quality was tested at the CSU lab and the results were some of the purest water in the state. Most of Jackson County is categorized as Alpine Valley and is a relatively high elevation basin with cold winters and cool summers. North Park is rimmed on the west by the Park Range and the Sierra Madre mountains, on the south by the Rabbit Ears Range and the Never Summer Mountains, and on the east by the Medicine Bow Mountains. The fourth-generation property has long been enjoyed by current ownership and rarely does an opportunity present itself to control such an outstanding sporting property. A former Navy SEAL sniper has constructed the shooting range to match exact specs of training regimes. The Ranch is located just 12+/- miles east of Walden, Colorado with quality county roads servicing the property. Walden is the county seat of Jackson County and one of the least populated counties in the state. Walden has sufficient amenities with a grocery store, hardware store, and multiple good dining options. Driving distance to and from the ranch is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from world-class skiing and amenities in Steamboat Springs, 1.5 hours from Laramie, WY, 2.5 hours from Fort Collins, CO and 2.5 hours from the Denver metro area. The closest commercial air service can be found in Hayden, CO or Laramie, WY both regional airports and approximately a 1.5 hour drive from the property. Additionally, the airport in Walden offers private air service with a 5900 paved strip and fuel.
