Incredible hunting, recreation, and building offering in the heart of Spanish Peaks Country!! High ridges, meadows, peaks, rock outcroppings and formations, water, and more! With little to no hunting pressure on the property in decades, this is an exceptional opportunity to grab your dream hunting/recreational property with multiple building sites for a lodge, cabin, or new home with incredible views! Located in Colorado Hunting Unit GMU #85, Caza Paraiso offers over-the-counter tags for archery and 2nd/3rd season rifle elk, also qualifying for a Landowner Preference Program application. Multiple year-round and seasonal ponds along with sprawling secluded grassy meadows attract elk, deer, bear, turkey, mountain lion, bobcat, fox, and other local wildlife due to the seclusion, safety, food and water….everything they need! Surrounded by private ranches, most of which are larger in size, hunting pressure is kept to a minimum with no nearby/adjacent public hunting, also reducing the risk of trespassers. Multiple 330+ bulls were on camera in 2022, as well as dozens of young bulls with great potential. Scroll through the trail camera folder to see a large sample of the trail camera inventory in 2022/2023 so far. For more hunting opportunities, the Pike and San Isabel National Forest, Spanish Peaks Wilderness, Spanish Peaks SWA and others offer tens of thousands of acres of public access at the tip of your fingers. Utilize your LPP or OTC tags in any of these locations!
The gated entrance to the property off of CR 31.9 offers a great building site with power, water well, small year-round pond, trees, and direct mountain views. A very unique feature of Caza Paraiso is the deeded access road from the building site to the main body of the ranch. This offers the ability to build your cabin, lodge, or home away from the bulk of the ranch without disturbing the wildlife. Easy access via foot, truck, ATV, etc in the mornings with the falling morning thermals allows quick and quiet entry without spooking game feeding in the main meadow. A second site towards the southeast corner of the main body of the ranch includes a small storage shed/cabin, water well, and power, along with stock tank for added water options. This would be a good location for a permanent blind, outpost cabin, or even a large lodge tucked into the tall Ponderosa Pines. Limitless options for building potential!
Recent improvements to the property include a new gated entry, road/culvert improvements throughout, full survey and more. Mostly year-round access to at least the main meadow, with access further into the property sometimes limited for normal vehicle travel dependent on snow accumulation. 2022/2023 offered full winter access to all corners of the property, while a portion of the 2021/2022 winter season required track machine navigation through the northern half at higher altitudes.
