The setting is quiet. Most properties are irrigated and the growing season is excellent. Amenities such as car dealers, groceries, schools, shopping, and churches are just a few minutes away in Delta, to the north, and about 25 minutes south in Montrose.

Delta CO is a prime spot for Colorado recreation

For the adventurer or recreation enthusiast, Delta is a great launching point. The valley is ringed by mountains on all sides, with the beautiful San Juans to the south, the Uncompahgre Plateau to the west, the Grand Mesa to the north, and the West Elks to the east. There are literally millions of acres of public lands, whether National Forest or Bureau of Land Management, within half an hour to an hour's drive. Skiing in Telluride and Powderhorn is about an hour and a half drive. World-class 4-wheeling can be found in many mountain passes and desert landscapes nearby. Hunting for elk, mule deer, upland birds, and waterfowl can be excellent. Horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, rafting, golf-they're all close by and lots of fun. The Uncompahgre River flows nearby and the Gold Medal waters of the Gunnison River offer world-class fly-fishing through the Black Canyon.
