The Grand Mesa has over 300 fishing and recreational lakes and is home to elk, deer, mountain lion, bear, moose and all of the other wildlife that Colorado has to offer. This strawbale home of 2502 square feet and a 2400 square foot barn are located on ten acres that are surrounded by, and with views of, the West Elk mountain range, Uncompahgre range and National Forest, Grand Mesa National Forest and rugged peaks. The home and property have potential as horse property, retirement home, vineyard, or just a wonderful place to live.

The property is located on a resident only entry road adjacent to a large reservoir, which is a stop over for the migrating sandhill cranes.
