5 Acres Near the Rio Grande – Your Colorado Basecamp Awaits
Picture yourself on five acres of Colorado land where the air is clean and the views stretch for miles. Located in Rio Grande Ranches in southern Colorado’s high country, this property sits where the Rio Grande cuts through the valley floor and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains rise to the west. You are far enough from the noise to find true peace, but close enough to the river to make this land work for you.
The land here is made for those who want to use it. Bring your RV and set up camp under star-filled skies that city dwellers forget exist. Spend your days hiking the surrounding terrain, exploring the Rio Grande corridor, or simply watching weather systems roll across the valley. This is a region where you can hunt, fish, and ride freely. The property gives you the room to spread out and do things your way.
Five acres means you have options. Build your dream cabin when you are ready, or start with weekend camping trips while you plan your next move. Whether you are looking for a weekend escape or a place to eventually call home, this property provides the space and freedom to make it happen. Stop thinking about it and start living it.
