19384 County Road 4

A rare private inholding, Vagabond Ranch is a 108± acre legacy property, completely surrounded by Arapaho National Forest in Grand County, CO. Sheltered in a valley beneath the Never Summer Range, where Willow Creek and Bill Creek converge on the property, the ranch enjoys a setting of uncommon privacy and natural beauty. Grand Lake lies just 10 miles away, Rocky Mountain National Park rises immediately beyond the ridge, Granby is about 45 minutes away, and Denver is a 2.5± hour drive. Unlike many backcountry holdings, Vagabond Ranch is offered turnkey. A newly installed off grid power system consisting of a solar array, battery storage, and backup generator provides dependable year-round electricity, while a regraded internal road and trail network ensures reliable access in every season. New perimeter fencing supports seasonal grazing, and a comprehensive pond restoration is underway with completion anticipated by the end of summer. These improvements complement a historic compound of residences and cabins spanning more than a century, with nostalgic log buildings dating to the 1890s, along with two principal residences totaling 5,500± square feet. The ranch offers outstanding sporting opportunities. Situated within Colorado Game Management Unit 18, the property supports healthy populations of elk and mule deer, with over-the-counter rifle elk licenses and limited entry deer and coveted moose tags available through the draw. Approximately three quarters of a mile of Willow Creek and one half mile of Bill Creek flow through the property, together forming a private trout fishery. Adjudicated water rights associated with the pond, irrigation diversion rights, and a domestic well will convey with the property. Combining remarkable privacy, substantial infrastructure, and exceptional recreational resources, Vagabond Ranch represents a rare opportunity to own a turn-key legacy mountain ranch in one of Colorado's most sought after and unspoiled landscapes.
