Description
The stunning views from Lake Fork Ranch are dominated by the two highest peaks in the Rocky Mountains, Mount Elbert, and Mount Massive. The ranch is located virtually at the base of Mount Massive in the Upper Arkansas River Valley, surrounded by the Sawatch and Mosquito Mountain Ranges. The land is a combination of irrigated meadows, forest, and creek bottom and overlooks the Arkansas River a mile below Turquoise Lake Recreation Area. The world-class ski mountains of Vail, Copper Mountain, and Beaver Creek are less than an hour’s drive from Lake Fork Ranch. Ski Cooper, a great family ski mountain, is only fifteen minutes from the ranch. Leadville’s airport, restaurants, shops, and nightlife are only minutes from the ranch gate. Leadville is a well-known center for endurance sports, but the average weekend athlete can enjoy the adjacent golf course, hiking, biking, and equestrian activities, in addition to most winter sports. The core of the ranch is the valuable package of water rights. Seven irrigation ditches provide water, and Lake Fork Creek meanders for a mile and a half through the heart of the ranch. Recently, a significant stream restoration and fish habitat improvement project was implemented to improve trout fishing. Elk hunting or viewing is excellent as well. The ranch enjoys great neighbors, The National Fish Hatchery, Colorado Outward Bound, and Mount Massive Golf Course. Trailheads providing access to Mount Massive Wilderness and Holy Cross Wilderness are only minutes away. Lake Fork Ranch is a spectacular opportunity to create your own legacy property and invest in water rights and big acreage near town. Meanwhile, as your water and land investment grows, you can enjoy all the wonderful recreational activities Colorado mountain life offers.
