Description

United RV Campground Park is located in Durango, CO. The town of Durango has a very rich history of the old west, where you still have horse and buggy rides in town, line dancing, 135 +/- restaurants, Fort Lewis Collage, and one of the best ski mountains in Colorado “Purgatory Ski Resort” which offers great skiing for any level of skier. One of my favorite things about Durango is the 1.8 million acres of National Forest to enjoy the outdoors, and everything there is to offer in the San Juan Mountains, creating an outdoor enthusiast paradise. One of the biggest attractions at this resort is the historical Durango/ Silverton train that runs directly through the top of the property and people come from all over the nation to see and take pictures of the train as it passes through the park as it’s done since 1882 and you feel like you just stepped back in time. This property is being offered for sale for the first time in over 75 years and is a very rare find in the Animas Valley. The property has been extremely well cared for and is in fantastic shape and is thriving as a business. The park has a main home 4 bedrooms and 3 baths where the current owners live on property and also has a great care taker home that is rented to the care taker and he lives on the property as well, having a care taker on site allows you to leave the business for a vacation or to see family and you have peace of mind the park is being taken care of while your away. (Big Plus). There is a large 3/4 bay garage that even has a full commercial lift for working on all your toys and 2 fuel tanks on property for easy fill up on the parks large farm equipment. The Park also offers a full laundry services, hot and cold his and hers showers, heated swimming pool, convenience store, wi-fi, several other fenced pastures and an old historical home that was actually moved to the park and is part of the old west history. These are all great features of a great business and a great property but my personal favorites and where I can see endless opportunity is in the undeveloped 70 +/- acres below the park with almost one full mile of river front on the Animas Gold Medal river thats lined with these huge Cottonwood trees which provides big shade and in the fall the colors are just spectacular to see and is a surreal feeling of peace and quite. This also would be where you could build your custom home, away from the business yet still on the property and have the river in your front yard. Other ideas for (Developers, Contractors, Entrepreneurs) custom built homes, VRBO’s, shooting range, driving range, kayaking, canoeing, float fishing and weddings would do amazing and could accommodate hundreds of guests and parking easily. In the Animas Valley it holds a large resident herd of Elk and Deer which just makes you smile, they are seen in the Valley almost everyday. For the river, it is a gold medal river which means excellent fishing up to 26-30 inch Rainbows, Browns and German Trout. The river also allows for waterfowl hunting in your own back yard, also the river has a couple unique large SANDY beaches which makes for great swimming, or just laying out and having a picnic. This 70 +/- open acres could go in so many different directions, you could develop it, expand the already thriving RV business, or add in another idea. There is also 3/5 acre piece of land has been identified for a large pond that could be added for improving the wildlife habitat and waterfowl hunting, having the ability to fill it with 16 shares of Class A water the pond could easily be filled and maintained. The value of the water shares I would guess are worth in the millions (my own opinion) and I believe as time passes the water will just become a bigger asset for the entire RV Park or any ranch for that matter. Water is absolute Gold now and without the water you simply don’t have much and 16 shares of Class A Shares is a lot of water. To sum it up you have an open canvas to create
