Property Details

A truly rare offering in Western Colorado, this exceptional 40.51-acre horse property is set directly across from the iconic Needle Rock Mountain—one of Colorado’s most photographed and painted natural landmarks. Rising dramatically from the valley floor, Needle Rock creates a commanding backdrop visible from nearly every residence on the property, offering unforgettable sunrise, sunset, and star-filled night views that define life in the North Fork Valley. Designed first and foremost as a functional, turnkey equestrian estate, this fully furnished property blends wide-open acreage, fenced pastures, and equestrian infrastructure with comfort, creativity, and retreat-level amenities. The land is well suited for horses and livestock, with established fencing, open grazing areas, and supporting outbuildings that allow for immediate use or future expansion. Currently operating as an equine therapy center, boutique Airbnb, and bed-and-breakfast, the property offers rare flexibility for horse owners, trainers, retreat operators, or buyers seeking a private multi-home ranch compound. The estate includes six distinct residences, thoughtfully positioned to provide privacy while maintaining easy access to the equestrian areas and shared amenities. The spacious five-bedroom Elk House is ideal for group gatherings, staff housing, or retreat guests, while the two-bedroom Coyote House offers comfortable family accommodations. Additional one-bedroom cottages—including the Moose House and Hummingbird House—serve as peaceful guest or caretaker residences, each framed by sweeping mountain and pasture views. All homes are tastefully furnished and designed to complement the natural setting, blending rustic character with modern conveniences. At the center of the property, the main house serves as a welcoming hub with a beautifully designed bakery and café space, gourmet bar seating, and inviting gathering areas ideal for shared meals, clinics, workshops, or events. Supporting facilities include a fully equipped gym, yoga and dance studio, and a stocked art room—spaces that naturally complement equestrian therapy programs, wellness retreats, and creative residencies. The land itself offers exceptional versatility. In addition to fenced pastures and equestrian outbuildings, the acreage features mature trees, open meadows, and expansive views in every direction. While once home to productive gardens and a small permaculture setup, the landscape is now largely low-maintenance, allowing a new owner to reintroduce growing operations, expand horse facilities, or maintain a natural ranch setting with ease. With flexible zoning and a proven operational layout, this horse property is well suited for a wide range of uses: continue as an equine therapy or training facility, operate a bed-and-breakfast or boutique short-term rental, host retreats or clinics, or establish a private multi-family equestrian estate. Every aspect of the property supports comfort, privacy, and a deep connection to the land. Located just minutes from Crawford State Park, the Grand Mesa, and the Gunnison and North Fork Rivers, the estate offers easy access to riding trails, outdoor recreation, and small-town amenities while maintaining a sense of peaceful seclusion. Seller financing is available with flexible terms, creating a rare opportunity for qualified buyers. Whether envisioned as a working horse property, retreat destination, or legacy ranch estate, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Western Colorado’s most distinctive equestrian properties—set beneath the timeless presence of Needle Rock Mountain.
