The 160-acre Howard Farms Hunt Camp is a National Forest in-holding (surrounded on all sides by Rio Grande National Forest) located about 20-miles west of US Highway 285 in the San Luis Valley near the small town of La Garita. The property is frequented by good numbers of Elk, Mule Deer, and even Moose that wander in from the bottoms of Cave Creek. Black Bear and Grouse have also been successfully hunted from the parcel. There are numerous trails allowing one to hike, ATV or four-wheel for miles directly off the ranch boundaries. Nearby Cave and Carnero Creeks offer fishing for Brook Trout as a bonus. The parcel is fully perimeter fenced. The 1.5-story hunting lodge totals 1,934 square feet and is completely off-grid. It contains two-bedrooms and a one-and one-half bathroom configuration on the main level and a loft sleeping area able to accommodate a combined 10-14 guests. Lodge amenities include fully-appointed kitchen, washer/dryer, abundant storage, propane-fired wall heaters and a large wood burning stove, Wi-Fi access and satellite TV, picture windows allowing for outside views in most directions, and wrap-around decks. In addition, there is a storage/utility shed with an overhead door and covered storage overhangs. The shed provides storage of the water cistern and 48-volt DC to 120-volt AC solar system serving the property, leaving additional space for ATV parking, tools, etc. Water is provided by a State permitted developed spring and has provided consistent water flows even in the driest of years. With over 300 days of sunshine, the solar system provides adequate power to the cabin. This parcel is located in Colorado Game Management Unit (GMU) 79, which provides over-the-counter archery Elk tags (either sex). This property can be utilized as an annual big game hunting retreat, gentleman’s cattle and horse ranch, weekend family gathering spot, ATV basecamp for exploring the surrounding wilderness, etc.
