Located just 7.5 miles north of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, this coveted 1/3 mile stretch of both sides of the Elk River is quiet, private and easy to access. Paved Routt County Road 129 is maintained year-round by the County, providing quick access into Steamboat and its world-clas skiing. Approximately 23 acres are on the north side of the river; they are completely covered in cottonwoods and pines in a park-like setting. The south bank of the river is flanked by a steep hillside that is loaded with game trails meandering through the thick pine forest. The remaining acreage, accessible when the river is lower or frozen, is a level and rolling aspen-covered bench that attracts elk, deer, bear, and an occasional moose. The property is within a half mile of an additional 2 miles of public fishing on the Elk River and the Routt National Forest. With no covenants, close proximity to Colorado's second largest ski area, public land nearby, live water, and great privacy--this property checks most of the boxes for quality, recreational acreage.
