Spanning 9,758± deeded acres, Middle Creek Ranch is the largest available offering in close proximity to world-class skiing in Colorado. Bordering national forest and BLM lands, this beautiful and ecologically diverse holding is located along the northern flank of the Flat Tops Mountain Range and possesses a balance of valley floor, trout stream and forested mountain country not easily found nor replicated in the Western United States. At Middle Creek Ranch, the discerning buyer will find privacy, expansive viewsheds, vast aspen and pine forests, productive agricultural lands, abundant wildlife and limitless recreational opportunities, including fly fishing. All of this within Middle Creek's borders and all within 17 paved miles of world-class skiing, vibrant resort community amenities, as well as commercial and private air services. Exceptionally private, the ranch is comprised of two large blocks of adjacent lands separated by paved road as well as the nearby Trout Creek parcel, which includes 1.5± miles of frontage on both banks of Trout Creek. Unencumbered by conservation easements, and unlike other large acreage offerings, there is no public access into or through any of the ranch's deeded lands. A recreational haven with an abundance of on-site recreational activities and amenities available to ownership and guests. Befitting the surrounding mountain lands and ready for immediate use, the owner's residence, two guest cabins and lodge are located in an aspen grove within the heart of the ranch. These classic, log construction improvements feature professionally decorated interiors that are welcoming and appealing. The viewshed from the owner's residence is unique to Routt County in that it takes in completely private down-valley views of rimrock and the upper slopes of the Steamboat Ski Resort. Other improvements include historic headquarters with the ranch manager's residence and barn, a cowboy house, shop and facilities required for working livestock.
