The 140+/- acres lies within a WRP (Wetlands Reserve Program) easement, enhancing its native habitat and supporting a wide range of wildlife. The restored wetlands and upland grasses provide excellent upland bird habitat, while the river corridor itself is a magnet for migrating waterfowl. Early-season teal pour into the backwaters and pools of the South Platte, and as winter sets in, mallards and puddle ducks concentrate heavily along this stretch of the Platte. This region of Colorado is a major Canada Goose and Snow Goose flyway.
Beyond its strong waterfowl appeal, the mature cottonwood stands, thick river-bottom cover, and secluded river banks make ideal habitat for whitetail deer and wild turkeys. The property’s isolation, near by food sources, and cover make it a consistent producer of quality deer and an attractive roosting and travel area for turkeys.
A 5-acre building envelope included within the WRP boundary allows a future owner the ability subject to FEMA Flood Plain guidelines and requirements, to construct a cabin, lodge, or shopan extremely valuable feature for a protected property of this kind. Additionally, a domestic water tap is being sold with the property, providing a ready water source for future improvements.
