PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A true Hunter’s and Angler’s dream, this extraordinary 8.68-acre riverfront sanctuary offers 1,080 feet of frontage on the West Fork of the Dolores River — a rare stretch home to four species of native trout: Cutthroat, Brook, Brown, and Rainbow. Bordering public land and the Stoner Mesa trailhead, this property delivers unmatched access to endless riding, hiking, hunting, and backcountry adventure all while enjoying complete privacy from the road. Ideally positioned, the property is just minutes from Dunton Hot Springs, the world-famous luxury retreat known for its restored ghost town cabins and natural hot springs. You’re also approximately 45 minutes to Telluride for world-class skiing, dining, and festivals, and about 2 hours to Moab, gateway to iconic red rock landscapes and national parks. Four acres of irrigated pasture create a functional and beautiful setting for your equestrian lifestyle. The infrastructure is ready for serious horse enthusiasts, featuring a hay barn, 60' round pen, expansive 150’ x 225’ riding arena, eight covered stalls, and durable piped fencing throughout. The custom log home blends rustic authenticity with thoughtful comfort. Inside, you’ll find three bedrooms plus a loft, four bathrooms, and a dedicated theater room. Beetle-kill tongue-and-groove woodwork wraps the interior in warmth and character, complemented by granite countertops and abundant storage. The kitchen is both modern and nostalgic equipped with contemporary appliances, a propane cookstove, and a charming antique wood cookstove. The great room centers around a welcoming fireplace, creating the perfect gathering space after a day outdoors. Front and back decks extend the living space into the landscape, where a step-in hot tub (installed in 2024) invites you to soak beneath the stars and listen to the river flowing below. Adding to the property’s legacy is the beautifully restored original 1941 Foutz Cabin, now a fully functional guest house. Thoughtfully preserved with its original floors and windows, it features one bedroom, one bathroom, a country kitchen with propane appliances, a cozy woodstove, and a brand-new metal roof installed in 2025. This is more than a property — it’s a private sporting retreat, an equestrian haven, and a rare opportunity to own a legacy stretch of river in the heart of Colorado’s wild beauty.
