The improvements on the property include a house and a bunkhouse with an attached shop. The house is a nice 1,345 square foot home comprised of three bedrooms, one bathroom and an office.

Perhaps one of the best features of this property is its location. Only one mile north of Maybell on a main county road, this property is close to thousands of acres of State & BLM lands. The surrounding area is well known for its elk and deer hunting. It is close to three elk hunting areas (3, 11 & 211). On the south side of the property there are 15 sewer taps to the town of Maybell. With frontage on the Yampa River this property makes a great location to take out or put in for rafters looking for a nice float. Also on the property is a slew that is a nice spot for duck and goose hunting.
The water rights on this property have made it a very unique ownership opportunity. There is an industrial water right for 300 gallons per minute. On the northern 30 acre tract there is a pump water right for two feet per second out of the river for irrigation. The remainder of the property also has an irrigation water right out of the river for five feet per second. Also available to irrigate the remainder of the property are 45 shares from the Maybell Ditch that are included in this sale. Currently there is not a pivot on the property, but this would make an ideal spot for one. In 2010 the owner states that the property yielded 30 tons of hay. The hay was a nice mix of freshly seeded alfalfa, clover and grass. There is live water in the irrigation ditch year round for livestock too!
The Yampa River Ranchette is one of those rare ownership opportunities that wont last long. Few properties have the variety of income possibilities from the bunkhouse and water rights that this property enjoys along with the incredible setting and location. If you are looking to for a place to relax in the country this is the property for you. Beautiful sunsets come free of charge!
