Description

Nestled not far from the base of Culebra Peak, the only privately owned 14,000+ foot mountain in Colorado, lies an exceptional fishing and recreational property: Culebra Creek Angler’s Retreat. From the snowmelt off the Sangre De Cristo peaks, cold mountain water flows down the mountain slopes to form a unique trout fishery. Culebra Creek and its tributary Ventero Creek join on the property and meander for approximately two miles of classic Colorado open meadow flyfishing. The 133± acre property is located a short drive outside San Luis, the oldest town in Colorado, rich in history and tradition.

The property has been managed expertly for quality flyfishing by the owner, a well-known and highly respected professional guide. He thoughtfully put approximately 100± acres of the creek bottomland into a conservation easement. The easement protects the creek for the future and, more importantly, opens the door for financial and ecological assistance with habitat enhancement and preservation from the trustee.

Additionally, there is an ideal, buildable 28± acres not in the easement, so a dream home or lodge can be built overlooking the creek. The property currently has a good water well, a septic system, a small newly finished cabin, and an older cabin used for storage.

As a bonus, if you are a hunter, groups of elk frequent the property on their way to the creek and adjoining grass meadows. Multiple dramatic mountain peaks surround the ranch, including Culebra Peak, Blanca Peak, Ellingwood Point, Little Bear Peak, and Trinchera Peak, and provide an unmatched scenic panoramic view that can distract even the most avid angler.
