This is a fantastic opportunity for you Elk and Deer hunters to pick up a great cabin to use as a base camp to hunt in some of the most productive areas in Southern Colorado.  Get a couple of hunting buddies to go in with you and always have your own area to hunt on.  This is located in Costilla County Colorado near the small, historic town of Fort Garland (right at the intersection of hiways 159 and 160) in the  foothills of the beautiful Sangre de Cristo mountain range and close to the San Isabel National Forest which harbor thousands of elk and mule deer in the summer and which use the San Luis Valley as a winter grazing/loafing area when the weather drives them out of the 11,000-14,000 foot elevations to this valley located at about 8,500 feet.   We've even seen signs of black bear and lion near our cabin, so there's plenty of photo opportunities for you as well.  And we've also seen fox and coyotes along the well-maintained county roads.  This parcel lies only about 8 miles to town for easy access to any supplies you might need and only about 6 miles from great trout fishing at Mountain Home Reservoir (where they stock trout sized from 18" to 24").           

Now, a  little more about the cabin:  It is about 3 years old and wired for 12 volt power with r.v. lighting (as it is off the grid), is fully insulated and is furnished with a vintage Franklin wood-burning stove for heat with T&G Aspen and drywall walls.  The first floor consists of a living/dining area and a kitchen area and the upper level is a large sleeping loft (all finished with T&G Aspen).  The windows in the upper level overlook hundreds of adjacent acres of prime grazing/loafing area used by the resident mule deer and elk and the cabin could even be used as a shooting house if you have your permit for this area.  In effect this is designed to be a much more comfortable deer/elk stand than one would normally get to use.  The windows facing North also give you a terrific view of majestic Mount Blanca which is about the 5th tallest peak in Colorado at about 14,432 feet.  In addition to being an excellent area for hunting, there are also endless opportunities to fish, sightsee, hike, raft and tour as the area is loaded with historical and scenic sites such as The Great Sand Dunes National Park, The historic Fort Garland and even an alligator farm within less than an hours drive.    

Don't miss out on this great opportunity to own your very own private hunting and vacation property....this low price includes the 5 acres AND THE CABIN LOCATED ON IT.  The county assessor has the property valued at more than $40,000, but last years taxes were only $220 and very few annoying covenants or association fees to get in your way of having fun or to just get away from it all.  Covenants can be found http://users.gojade.org/scro/images/Nav9.htm    I'll be adding more info and maybe photos during the listing period, but if you have any questions in the meantime, please ask. 

We don't have a loan on this parcel, so are able and willing to consider offers involving owner financing, with partial downpayments consisting of gold or silver bullion coins, collectible firearms or a good used SUV.  Let us know of your offers.
