Located just over an hour from Montrose Regional Airport, about 11 minutes from Crawford Reservoir, and approximately 13 minutes from the 4,900-foot asphalt airstrip at Crawford Airport, the ranch combines privacy and utility with convenient access to recreation and travel. The home is built for comfortable year-round living, with a modern single-level layout, in-floor radiant heat, concrete floors, Daikin mini-split systems in each bedroom, and generous covered porches that take in the surrounding mountain views. Recent improvements to the main house include professional stucco and stonework, a new roof, reverse osmosis drinking water, an on-demand hot water heater, matching exterior window dormers, and a newly added front porch with concrete work and grading. Each residence on the property is well insulated and supported by multiple heating and cooling sources, which adds another layer of everyday practicality. The ranch's equestrian infrastructure is one of its defining strengths. A fully engineered 300'x150' competition arena is fenced and finished with paddocks and pasture, professionally installed heated Ritchie waterers, and multiple patience poles. There is also a round pen at the arena and another in the rear paddock, along with a private trot trail. A custom four-stall barn and tack room adds functionality, with a concrete cross aisle, ceiling fans, no open rafters in the ceiling, new electrical, heated waterers in each stall, Noble feeders, dusk-to-dawn exterior lighting, and a tack room with heat, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan.

The ranch is also supported by three septic systems, serving the main house, the cabin, and the RV dump at the equipment shed. The work done here is not cosmetic. More than 60 dump truck loads of fill were brought in, along with a road cut connecting the two driveways from the main house and the cabin for easier access to the arena and the rest of the property.

Wolf Park Hunting Ranch - 249.5 Acre Colorado Mountain Hunting Property Surrounded by Public Land Wolf Park Hunting Ranch is a 249.5 acre (by survey) mountain property near Hotchkiss, Colorado, offering something increasingly rare: a private deeded base surrounded by 12,700+ acres of BLM public land the owner can hunt, in country that's extremely difficult to access any other way. For the serious mule deer and elk hunter, this is a gateway property - the kind of holding that turns thousands of acres of public land into your personal backcountry. Landowner Preference Points & GMU 52 Tags Because the ranch consists of more than 160 contiguous acres, it qualifies for Colorado's Landowner Preference Program (LPP), giving the owner access to landowner tags in the draw. The property typically qualifies for 3 landowner preference point tags per year, depending on the season applied for - a meaningful advantage in a unit where quality mule deer tags are in high demand. GMU 52 is one of Colorado's most respected mule deer units, and its reputation speaks for itself: the unit was recently hunted by well-known public-land hunting figure Randy Newberg, who has called it one of his favorite mule deer areas in the state. For elk, Colorado resident landowners may also have over-the-counter tag opportunities in this area - worth verifying with CPW for the current season structure. Elk Push Down From the Grand Mesa Elk hunting here benefits from a pattern local hunters know well. As public land pressure builds at higher elevations on the Grand Mesa during hunting seasons, elk consistently push down into this lower country - creating excellent rifle season opportunities on and around the ranch when the high country empties out. Water, Feed & Habitat That Holds Game Wildlife has every reason to stay on this property. A natural spring runs on the ranch, and Jay Creek, a seasonal creek, flows through it. Combined with good forage and established feed areas, the deeded ground concentrates deer and elk right where you can hunt them - or use it as your launch point into the surrounding public land. Controlled Access to 12,700+ Acres of BLM The ranch is surrounded by BLM public lands, and its greatest strategic value is access. Developed UTV and Jeep roads run from the property directly onto the BLM, and a network of trails allows easy, quiet movement into the surrounding hunting country - an enormous advantage in terrain that's otherwise extremely difficult to reach. Effective control of access means less pressure, less competition, and better hunting. Building Sites & Conservation Easement Approximately 160 acres of the ranch are protected under a conservation easement, preserving the property's open character and habitat value. The two best building areas - totaling roughly 80 acres - are not encumbered by the easement, leaving room to develop. Improvements here would be off-grid cabins, with water available either by drilling a well or developing the existing natural spring. It's an ideal setup for a hunting camp, seasonal retreat, or self-reliant mountain cabin. The Hotchkiss Area The ranch sits in the Hotchkiss area of Delta County, in the North Fork Valley - a part of western Colorado known for its orchards, vineyards, small-farm agriculture, and easy access to some of the state's best public land. Hotchkiss and nearby Paonia offer everyday necessities, dining, and community, with Delta and Montrose a short drive for larger shopping and services. It's remote enough for genuine solitude, close enough to be practical. Grazing, Recreation & Convenience Beyond hunting, the property offers good forage and grazing potential and multiple trail systems throughout for riding, UTV use, and exploring. Wolf Park Hunting Ranch is a rare opportunity to own the key to a vast, low-pressure public-land hunting area, anchored by a productive deeded property with water, feed, terrain that big game favor year-round, and room to build an off-grid retreat of your own. All information contained herein is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed. Buyer and Buyer's agent are responsible for verifying all information, including but not limited to acreage, boundaries, water rights, conservation easement terms, building envelopes, zoning, access, utilities, tag availability, and hunting regulations. Seller and listing broker make no representations or warranties as to the accuracy of this information.

With a 5-year projection reaching $420,000, the ranch provides a solid financial foundation for potential buyers.

Historically in Delta County, vacant recreational land averages around 4.6% appreciation YoY Standard Ag Land Appreciation averages 7.4% YoY.

The apartment opens to a pleasant north-facing patio with a garden area and a shed behind it-making it a comfortable, self-contained residential unit that adds a fourth income stream to the property. Two Well-Maintained Homes Both mobile homes add dependable residential income. The single-wide is a newer home with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and has been well maintained throughout. The double-wide is an older model but equally well cared for, with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and updated flooring. A two-car garage sits next to the double-wide, adding valuable covered parking and storage. Both mobile homes are purged, offering added peace of mind. Together with the shop and apartment, they provide four diversified rental streams under one ownership. Strong Rental Income and Return This property is a true income producer with four separate units. Combined rents total $6,145 per month, or $73,740 per year, which equates to an approximate 9.8% gross CAP rate at the $750,000 list price. With income drawn from both commercial and residential demand across four units, the cash flow is diversified and resilient. (As with any investment, buyers should factor in operating expenses such as taxes, insurance, maintenance, and vacancy to determine net returns.) All units are well maintained and rent-ready, keeping turnover and upkeep manageable for an investor. A Rare Creekfront Setting and Building Opportunity What truly sets this property apart is the land itself. Surface Creek runs through the middle of the 4.77 acres, and a casual gravel driveway leads down to a bridge that crosses the creek into a peaceful meadow area surrounded by trees. It's an ideal spot for a future home-and remarkably, the highway noise is surprisingly quiet down by the creek. For a buyer who wants to live on-site while collecting rental income, or hold the parcel for future development, the creekfront meadow is a rare and beautiful bonus that's hard to find on income property. Prime Location and Utilities The property fronts Highway 65 along its eastern boundary, right at the turnoff to 2100 Road-a locally used shortcut to and from the North Fork Valley-giving it excellent visibility and easy access. It's serviced by town of Orchard City water, natural gas, and Elevate Fiber internet, so modern connectivity and reliable utilities are already in place. Situated on the sunny southern slope of the Grand Mesa near Cedaredge, the area offers abundant Western Slope recreation, from fishing and hiking to hunting and skiing, along with the small-town charm and steady housing demand of Colorado's Surface Creek Valley. A Unique Investment Opportunity Few properties combine commercial versatility, multiple residential income streams, highway frontage, and a private creekfront building site on nearly five acres. Whether you're an investor seeking diversified cash flow, an owner-operator wanting a shop and living space with tenants to offset costs, or a buyer dreaming of a creekside home with built-in income, this Highway 65 property delivers a rare mix of opportunity.

Multiple center pivots and ten ponds across the property enhance both irrigation efficiency and wildlife value. The ranch boasts over one mile of frontage along the North Fork of the Gunnison River, providing outstanding fishing for rainbow and brown trout, as well as prime riparian habitat for big game species. Located in GMU 63, the property qualifies for Colorado's Landowner Preference Program and supports a resident elk herd and trophy-class mule deer. Improvements include a spacious 3-bed, 3-bath main residence, a second home suitable for a caretaker or rental use, and several outbuildings including 3 Quonset huts, a grain silo, workshop, and storage sheds. The current owner has operated the ranch as a 100% organic farm and ranch and has supplied organic grains and hay to local producers.

Located in Delta County, Colorado, this 74 deeded acre ranch includes approximately one-half mile of Gunnison River frontage. Old-growth cottonwoods, 34 acres of irrigated meadows, and senior water rights give the property both beauty and function. This is a usable river ranch with paved year-round access off Highway 92, convenient proximity to Delta and Montrose Regional Airport, and the kind of layout that supports equestrian, agricultural, and recreational use. Water is a central part of what makes this property work. The ranch benefits from senior water rights dating back generations, and that history shows up on the ground. The meadows are productive, the pasture is strong, and the irrigation gives the ranch real agricultural and equestrian value. For a buyer looking for a horse property in the Mountain West, that combination matters. Mild winters, dry summers, quality pasture, and room for further improvements create the kind of flexibility that is hard to replicate. Recreation is a real part of this ranch's value. With Gunnison River frontage, the property offers exceptional brown trout and rainbow trout fishing, creating the kind of everyday access to quality water that makes ownership more meaningful. It is easy to picture quiet mornings on the river, evenings spent under the cottonwoods, and the simple benefit of having strong fishing as part of the property rather than something that requires planning, travel, or permission. The river corridor and 34 acres of irrigated meadows also support productive duck hunting, bringing another dimension to the ranch's sporting value. The combination of water, habitat, and usable ground helps create a property that is enjoyable in more than one season and for more than one purpose. For the buyer who values time outdoors, it is the kind of ranch that offers not just scenery, but experience. The ranch is well suited for horses and livestock, with ground that can support an arena, barns, and additional agricultural improvements. It also offers an improved riverfront homesite, giving the next owner a strong starting point rather than a blank slate. You can live here full time, build out an equestrian setup, or create a private base for fishing, riding, and day-to-day ranch life. With no conservation easement in place, the next owner has the ability to shape the land in a way that fits their goals, whether that means improving the horse setup, strengthening the agricultural operation, building a home that fits the setting, or simply holding a stretch of productive river ground for the next generation. Delta River Ranch is a property with the right fundamentals: river frontage, senior water, irrigated pasture, practical access, and a setting that supports both daily use and long-term value.
