Howard, CO 81233

Cozy 1 bedroom, 1 bath log cabin on 6.8 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. Pending a lot line adjustment, which has been submitted to the county for approval, this property will have direct access to the San Isabel National Forest. The new boundary will be 1/2 mile from the Rainbow Trail, a 100+ mile trail traversing the Sangre de Cristo mountain range from west of Salida to south of Westcliffe, CO and tying into the several other trail systems including the Salida Trail System. Above the Rainbow Trail is the Sangre de Cristo Wilderness for endless hiking, hunting, and exploring. 3 to 4 mile hike to Stout Lakes, Bushnell Lakes and many other trailheads. 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 and only minutes to the Arkansas River. See Virtual Tour for more pictures and maps.
