Perched over the breathtaking Uncompahgre Valley, and peering down on Ridgway Reservoir is the spectacular Burro Creek Ranch. From the ranch’s 1,160-acre expanse, all Western Colorado’s most prominent peaks unfold in an unobstructed corridor- from Sleeping Indian to the Willson’s, and from Mount Sneffels to the Grand Mesa! Looking onto the ranch itself, one will find Burro Creek meandering through a lush cottonwood forest, flanked on either side by robust stands of pinion/juniper, ponderosa pine, Gabel oak, and spattering’s of dark timber. This combination of dense evergreens and a forage-laden creek bottom forms an elk and deer oasis, promoting strong recreation opportunities. Elevation and topography are moderate, ranging from 7,080-8,302, and varying between level benches, rolling drainages and deep canyons. Beyond natural features, Burro Creek Ranch boarders Country Road 4, which provides county maintained, seasonal, access into the ranch, and direct conductivity to a phenomenal building site that straddles the Billy Creek and Burro Creek basins. From the home site, views are protected by expansive public land, extending over 5 miles to the north, 3 miles to the west, 2 miles to the south, and 1.7 miles to the east. Only one small section of the property boarders private land. Taken in combination with a minor conservation easement (140 acres), Burro Creek Ranch is highly protected, yet only 2.8 miles of Ridgway Reservoir/Pa-Co-Chu-Puk and 10.9 miles of downtown Ridgway. This is truly a beautiful, mid-elevation ranch with high-elevation views and a great location!
