About This Home

Cozy 1 bedroom, 1 bath log cabin on 4.3 acres. Private location hidden in the tall pines and aspens at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in Howard, CO. Great cabin for year round living or a retreat in the mountains for recreation, hunting, or just relaxing. National Forest, BLM, and the Arkansas River are minutes away. For the hunters: Property is in Game Management Unit 86 with OTC rifle and archery elk tags and the hunting is excellent in this area with very little pressure from the public. Cabin has electricity, propane, well, and septic. There is a free standing wood stove, a built in fireplace, and a propane wall furnace providing plenty of warmth. Fenced yard for pets, fenced garden area, several small streams running through the timber and a seasonal irrigation ditch that makes a nice water feature near the front of the cabin. Located approximately 30 minutes from Salida, CO. (Additional 2.5 acres is available. Contact agent for more information.) See Virtual Tour for more pictures and maps.
