TBD County Road 5 Craig, CO 81625

Double Spring Ranch is a scenic 320 acre property tucked within the rolling hills northwest of Craig. Located just off County Road 5, this versatile landscape offers a blend of grazing value and recreational appeal with its wildlife presence. Currently enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), the land has remained in excellent condition, balancing conservation with practical use. The landscape at Double Spring Ranch is defined by gently rolling topography covered predominantly in native grasses, accented by patches of sagebrush. A standout feature of the ranch is its two spring-fed ponds, which hold water year-round, an increasingly rare and valuable asset in this part of Colorado. These reliable water sources not only support livestock but also attract a variety of wildlife throughout the seasons. The property is fully perimeter fenced and has historically supported seasonal grazing, hunting, and general recreational use. Double Spring Ranch is also currently enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), which has helped maintain and enhance the condition of the land through years of stewardship. Double Spring Ranch offers a variety of recreational experiences for outdoor enthusiasts, with opportunities that span far beyond its fences. Situated in Colorado's GMU 3, the property supports populations of antelope and deer that frequent the area year-round. During the later seasons, as snow blankets the surrounding mountains, migrating elk have potential to make their way through the ranch. Elk tags can be purchased over-the-counter for private land in 2nd and 3rd rifle seasons, offering consistent opportunities for hunters year after year. However, deer and antelope tags are allocated via the draw only and typically require several years to obtain. The ranch's western border with BLM land expands the recreational potential even further. Whether you're glassing for game, exploring on horseback or ATV, or simply enjoying the quiet solitude of the landscape, Double Spring Ranch is full of possibilities. In addition to the property's direct border with BLM land, several nearby access points to hundreds of thousands of acres of National Forest can be reached within an hour. These public lands offer endless opportunities for adventure, including hiking, horseback riding, ATV exploration along extensive trail networks, camping, and fishing in alpine lakes and streams. Elkhead Reservoir lies just 45 minutes away and offers a full day's worth of fishing, swimming, or relaxing on the boat. The ranch's location also puts you within reach of several nearby towns that provide various amenities and host unique events and seasonal attractions throughout the year.
