Property Description
North Fork River Ranch spans approximately 357 acres in the heart of Colorado's North Fork Valley, just minutes from the town of Hotchkiss. This highly versatile property offers a rare blend of agricultural productivity, abundant water rights, and exceptional wildlife habitat. With over 185 irrigated acres supported by 116.5 shares of Short Ditch Company, 116.5 shares of Short Ditch Extension Company, and 237.5 shares of The Smith McKnight Ditch Company, the ranch is well-positioned for continued hay production, grazing, and waterfowl habitat. Multiple center pivots and ten ponds across the property enhance both irrigation efficiency and wildlife value. The ranch boasts over one mile of frontage along the North Fork of the Gunnison River, providing outstanding fishing for rainbow and brown trout, as well as prime riparian habitat for big game species. Located in GMU 63, the property qualifies for Colorado's Landowner Preference Program and supports a resident elk herd and trophy-class mule deer. Improvements include a spacious 3-bed, 3-bath main residence, a second home suitable for a caretaker or rental use, and several outbuildings including 3 Quonset huts, a grain silo, workshop, and storage sheds. All farm equipment necessary for ongoing operations is included in the sale. With easy access to Delta, Montrose, and the Montrose Regional Airport, North Fork River Ranch offers a turnkey blend of water, wildlife, and working land in one of Western Colorado's most desirable agricultural regions.
