Rimrock Canyon Ranch offers a private canyon at the dead end of a well-maintained county road, surrounded by over 5,000 acres of public land. You will not find another property offering this feeling of solitude with modern utilities and easy access to civilization. Theodore Roosevelt believed a man required just 40 acres and the use of public lands to support his family. In 1912, he granted this particular parcel, with its creek and pastures safeguarded by federal lands, to a trusted hunting guide.
The ranch consists of 40+/- deeded acres surrounded by 50 +/- acres of unique BLM possessory interest. Corral Creek meanders for almost half a mile through the property and is teeming with hungry brook trout. The large fishing pond is stocked with large rainbow trout and adds to the considerable charm. Prime fly fishing on the Colorado River is accessible by a mere three-fourths mile walk through public land. A large main house, a guest house, and a delightful bunkhouse provide comfortable living for owners and guests. Two wells and a spring provide plentiful water. This uniquely private property is only 10 minutes from Parshall, Colorado.
The only people you will see are those you invitebut the mule deer, whitetail, elk, moose, coyote, pine martens, badgers, mountain lions, and lynx will wander through without invitation. The resident mother black bear and her cubs are a common sight. The ridgetop views of the Colorado River Valley, Williams Fork Reservoir, surrounding mountain ranges, and down to the ranch itself are truly spectacular.
Rimrock Canyon Ranch has been operating as a successful short-term rental property for many years. At buyer's request, all furnishings to be included, right down to the coffee cups.
