RMR Ranch

Imagine owning a secluded sanctuary where every corner of the landscape invites you to connect with the raw beauty of the San Juan Mountains. RMR Ranch is a 480± deeded acre one of a kind property, offering an opportunity for raw natural resources, recreational possibilities, unmatched privacy and access.

RMR Ranch lies in the heart of Colorado’s renowned Game Management Unit 76, one of the state’s most respected trophy hunting units. Managed by Colorado Parks and Wildlife with a long-term focus on mature age class, herd health, and balanced sex ratios, Unit 76 has earned its reputation for producing exceptional elk, Shiras moose, and mule deer. Combined with some of the finest high-country habitat in the Rockies, the unit continues to produce the kind of mature, record-book-caliber animals that serious hunters pay attention to. The property is eligible for landowner tags through the Landowner Preference Program for elk and mule deer and has a history of trophy-class wildlife, including 330- to 380-class bulls, while moose tags may be drawn with sufficient points.
The property features two 7±-acre lakes, over 3 miles of improved trout streams, and Red Mountain Creek, which flows through the entire length of the property. Red Mountain Creek, along with the lakes and streams, creates a private fishery that is completely under your management, offering exclusive fishing opportunities in its pristine waters. Abundant with brown and rainbow trout, this fishery ensures a consistent and rewarding fishing experience while allowing owners to maintain the health and sustainability of its aquatic ecosystem. With no public access or pressure from outside anglers, the property provides a rare opportunity to preserve and enjoy a thriving, unspoiled fishery. Elevations ranging from 9,300 to 9,700 feet offer spectacular views the surrounding landscapes, and nearby 12,000+ foot peaks, including Piedra Peak, located just four miles away. The land itself is a diverse mix of aspens, spruce, and willows, further contributing to the property’s beauty and ecological richness.

Recreational opportunities abound at RMR Ranch, including hunting, fishing, hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, paddleboarding, horseback riding, and ATV exploration. The land’s remote nature, year-round accessibility, and raw, untouched beauty make it feel like stepping back into the 1800s. It is a place where the land has remained largely untouched and protected from the outside world.

The ranch includes multiple well-appointed structures, including a Engelmann Spruce Log Cabin boasting 4,193± square feet of living space with extraordinary high ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling three-story fireplace, and expansive windows showcasing breathtaking views. Additional structures on the property include a large barn with a two story caretaker’s apartment above, a second log cabin (2,450± sq. ft.), a fully equipped workshop, and a dedicated yoga/exercise room near the main house.

The landscape is enhanced by well-maintained gravel and dirt roads, post fencing, and designated car park areas. Additional amenities include a chicken coop, an outdoor mechanical room with generator and hydro power units, and an expansive wrap-around balcony offering panoramic views of the lakes, streams, and surrounding peaks.

RMR Ranch provides a rare combination of seclusion and convenience. While its setting offers unparalleled privacy, the property is just 15± miles from Creede, Colorado, a historic mining town with year-round amenities. The ranch also features year-round access for ease of use in all seasons. Rhoda’s Arch, a shelter natural arch caused from erosion through a ridge of trachyte can be viewed from the RMR Ranch. Due to the remoteness and legal access, RMR Ranch is one of the few places that provides a viewpoint of the arch.
