The small town of Saguache is six miles away for essentials, larger towns of Monte Vista, Alamosa, and Salida are all within 40 - 50 minutes on paved roads. This is an opportunity to expand your ranching portfolio or move your family to a place unaffected by the pace of the world and carry on the legacy of a productive ranch property in Colorado.
