Red Feather Lakes Open Usage

This is a pre-approved site by Special Review from Larimer County. With Open Zoning, there are a multitude of allowed uses on the property, more so than many in town. Check Larimer County Land Use Code for those uses. Land This is a flat, triangular piece of land with great access to County Road 74e, Red Feather Lakes  Road.  Covered with tall Ponderosa Pines, this property has a U shaped access conducive to large equipment not having to back out onto the highway.  At about 8260 feet of elevation, this spot stays cool in the summer but has direct access to a county road that is kept clear all year long.

Improvements There is fencing on 2 sides of this triangular shaped property with the open side being the boundary with CR 74e. There are several small buildings and the owner’s 5th wheel on the property that are not included in the sale, but all buildings and equipment would be available for purchase.

Recreation Red Feather Lakes is an outdoor enthusiasts mecca.  Hiking, biking, camping, fishing, hunting, horses, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, and golfing at Fox Acres.  You name the outdoor activity, it’s here.  The amount of National Forest land is immense and access is plentiful.  Just 20 minutes away, there is direct access to the Poudre Canyon/Hwy 14 corridor as well.

Water/Mineral Rights & Natural Resources Mineral rights are unknown but whatever rights  exist will transfer with this sale.

Region & Climate This area is known, because of it’s elevation, as giving respite from the summer heat of lower elevations.  In winter, the cross country skiing, snow shoeing, snowmobiling and ice fishing are very popular activities.  It’s amazing that it’s about an hour to Fort Collins  with an incredibly different climate.

Location Located about an hour from Fort Collins, CO  or Laramie, WY, airports are not too far away.  Regional airports at Laramie, Fort Collins or Cheyenne are great for commuter or private flights with the Denver International Airport about 2 1/2 hours away.  All services are available in Laramie (home of University of Wyoming) and Fort Collins (home of Colorado State University).
