Rare Grass and Creek Water : Fort Garland : Costilla County : Colorado

Land Description

This one is rare. You will find a nice field of grass, not many lots here are grass covered. This gives you a prairie like feel in the mountains of Colorado. Water. There is water. You can see the flowing creek running through the north end of the property. You can walk right down in the water, easy access. A dead end road leads to the property and you will notice the grass overgrowth indicating very little traffic passes through. Your own private 5.5 acre haven awaits.

When exploring this property you will find it gets wider and wider as you travel through the grass field to the trees and water. Around the creek you will find some nice shade spots and even some greater water activities. This water is perfect to do a little fishing, cool down in the hot summer or let the kids play for hours. A very unique and fun find here.

The property is located just 10 minutes east of Fort Garland on well maintained roads. There are a couple of homesteads at the beginning of Hilton Rd and they live here full time, year round. Good neighbors are important but with over 5 acres of usable land, you can keep them at a distance. The property is surrounded by the Sangre de Cristo mountains. 300+ days of Colorado sunshine so get the solar panels out and power your RV or cabin. Side note...sunscreen is a Must out here. You will be at 8,033 ft and that sun is hot. Septic is required for sewer when you build but no time limit.

The San Luis Valley is packed with fun things to do. If you aren't willing to hike the 14ers, Blanca and Lindsey, are you really a hiker? Maybe you are a phenomenon junkie and want to see a waterfall in the desert? Sand that has accumulated over thousands of years to form some of the biggest sand piles in the world? mountain alligators? aliens or ufos? natural hot springs that magically soak away your ailments? Well, we have you covered. Check out Zapata Falls, The Great Sand Dunes, the Alligator Farm, Moffit's UFO watchtower, and several hot springs (some clothing optional) If you want something more "down to earth" there are thousands of acres of public hunting land, miles of off-road trails, and great trout fishing in the Rio Grande River. Water recreation in the reservoirs is popular especially in the spring and early summer. Local artisan shops, boutiques, museums, and eateries proudly show the amazing culture and history of the area.
