66 acres on the Larimer River and surrounded by national forest and BLM Land This property perfectly blends simplicity and adventure. Spanning 66 acres, it features 2,500 feet along the Larimer River, offering some of the best fly fishing in the region. Meticulously cared for by a family for 60 years, the land is now ready for new ownership. Bordered by National Forest to the west, this section in Jelm, WY, lies within a Mule Deer migration corridor and is closed from September 15 to May 15, creating a private haven for recreation and hunting.

In addition to the cabin, there is a spacious barn, originally constructed in the 1960s for livestock, offering 1,100 square feet of usable space.

Recreation Jelm is a central location to recreation amenities, Centennial is 45 min to the North, Albany (snowmobile mecca) is 35 min to the Northwest, Steamboat Springs is a short 1.5hr drive away.  Whatever your recreational heart desires, whether it be fishing, hiking, hunting, snowmobiling, or skiing, this area offers it all.

History This property looks down the big Laramie River into the Jelm-Frank Smith Ranch Historic district. The Frank Smith ranch was the original town of Jelm and still has many of its original buildings dating back to 1881.  Jelm or Cummins City back then was created kind of on a hoax. Mining was the game and unfortunately, it was not one that won.  Jelm became the new name for the town in 1900.

Woods Landing Resort an 1883 salon is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is now a thriving restaurant and resort offering a wonderful place to grab a burger, spend the night or even hit the dance floor on the uniquely designed boxcar spring dance floor!
