Located in the sunny high desert of the San Luis Valley in southern Colorado, this subdivision is home to 150 wild horses, descendants of horses used by Spanish explorers. The San Juan, La Garita, and Sangre de Cristo Mountain ranges provide stunning views in all directions.
Costilla County offers endless recreation options: hunting, fishing, hiking, and boating. The boat ramp to the Sanchez Reservoir is only 7.5 miles from the lot where anglers can enjoy fishing only access to the water for walleye, carp, channel catfish, northern pike, perch, and white suckers.
Power: Solar or alternative. The county changed the law and now requires new power lines to be underground, which significantly increases the installation cost for trenching and laying conduit to about $25 to $30 per foot, higher if rock blasting is needed. Neighbors could agree to share costs. The service provider is SLV Rural Electric Cooperative (SLV REC) in Monte Vista. Some residents have installed solar panels, wind-powered turbines, gas-powered generators
