Listing details for 9562 Co Rd 18, Fairplay, CO 80440 : If your idea of getting away is a crowded campground, keep scrolling. If you'd rather have 30 acres of your own Colorado high country with Fourmile Creek winding through it, this is the kind of place that rarely changes hands. Tucked among the trees near the end of a seasonal road, this classic off grid log cabin is simple, comfortable and exactly what it should be. Solar provides electricity, spring fed seasonal water serves the cabin, and a wood stove and wood burning furnace keep things warm when the mountain air turns crisp. The loft sleeping area, rustic interior and absence of a bathroom are a reminder that this property isn't about luxury, it's about freedom. Spend your days fishing for brook trout in Fourmile Creek, wandering the historic railroad grade, hiking nearby Pike National Forest and BLM land, or simply watching moose, elk, mule deer, mountain goats and countless other wildlife pass through your property. Beaver ponds, columbine, towering spruce and aspen, and sweeping views of Sheep Mountain and Lamb Mountain create a setting that feels a world away from the everyday. On clear nights the stars put on a show, and if you're lucky, even the northern lights have been known to make an appearance. Whether you're looking for a seasonal basecamp, hunting retreat, fishing cabin or a place where the biggest decision of the day is whether to grab your fly rod or your hiking boots, this property delivers. Why fight for a campsite every summer when you can own your own mountain escape? Conservation Easement in place helps preserve the natural beauty and wildlife habitat that make this valley so special while protecting it for generations to come. Practical note, if you are of a mind to add a bathroom there is a septic tank and leach field installed, water from kitchen sink flows into it. All furnishings are included as are the contents of the workshop.
