Imagine 240 acres in Montezuma County , SW Colo overlooking McPhee State Reservoir, Colorado's second largest lake as well as Narraguinnep Reservoir, a favorite local fishing and water skiing lake. This property also borders National Forest lands for approximately 1 mile. The property has a gentle rolling contour, with 360 degree & panoramic lake views, two canyons, and is split approx 55 % dry land alfalfa production, and 45% mixed pinion /juniper with oak brush scattered. Two locations are absolutely ideal for waterholes. If you were to build a trophy mule deer hunting property from scratch, you would build this property! The property qualifies for a land owner deer drawing , over the counter elk tags, with one being able to harvest a bull and cow in this unit in the past . (check regs) In addition, hunters have been drawing almost 1st year in this unit for deer as well.
Approx. 130 acres are currently in dry land alfalfa production, pulling and holding game for miles around. A local farmer currently does the farming with a 1/3-2/3 split, and would like to stay on, if possible. Income = +/- 60 tons of alfalfa hay per year.
It is common to see 100-300 deer fill the fields every evening, and the property has produced trophy deer every year from ground blinds. Ideally ,it would be best served with a couple of Texas Style shooting houses. In 09 and 10 several deer came off this property in the 190+ range from bow season all the way through rifle season.
This property fills up with world class mule deer and elk year round, but especially from late summer - years end. Documented deer to 200+ have been harvested, and this area is noted for producing the all time world record Burris Buck , a 226 net monster.
Just across the road, with only federal land between you and the lake lies McPhee Reservoir. With 50+ miles of shoreline, the lake provides spring , summer and fall boating ,incredible smallmouth fishing, salmon, trout , walleye, and catfish. There is a local water ski club, complete with slalom courses, and miles and miles of beaches. The headwaters of the Dolores River are ¼ mile from the property, and offer rafting, kayaking, and miles of gold medal trout fishing.
Located between west of Dolores Colo, and north of Cortez Colo, you are but minutes to Utah, Az, and NM , offering a total of 4 state hunting opportunities and the Four Corners region is monster mulie country. Durango is an hour away, and Telluride about 70 minutes. Casinos, Mesa Verde National Park, and 4 Corners National Monument and Canyon of the Ancients National Monument are all within minutes as well.
This property is currently off the grid and has no water source, though there are water wells in the area and power nearby. It would also lend itself well to conservation easement, or future development, especially being so close to the lake. Seller has an additional 160 acres that could be purchased separately or with this property. This property won't last long, has a hay income, as it has been in the same family for years. Sage Hen Mesa is a highly desired and coveted location. Call today and hunt Sage Hen Mesa 240 this year! To view the virtual tour visit http://www.listingsmagic.com/27204
