Land
North Fork Riverbend Acreage offers a hard to find combination of river frontage, privacy, and building opportunities. The 5 acre parcel features nearly 1,000 feet of frontage along the North Fork Popo Agie River, including a large riverbend oxbow that gives the property a unique character and creates a natural setting for wildlife. Mature trees line the river corridor, providing shade, privacy, and a beautiful backdrop for future improvements.
Multiple homesites offer views of the surrounding mountains while maintaining easy access to the river. Located at the end of Carbine Lane, the property feels surprisingly private while remaining just minutes from town.

Recreation
The river corridor attracts wildlife throughout the year, with whitetail deer frequently seen on the property and occasional moose moving through the area. Pheasants and other birds are commonly found along the river bottom, taking advantage of the mature trees and riparian habitat.
The North Fork Popo Agie is known for quality trout fishing and supports populations of brown trout, rainbow trout, Snake River cutthroat trout, and mountain whitefish. Whether it’s an evening spent casting from the bank, watching wildlife from your back porch, or simply enjoying the sights and sounds of the river, the property offers a level of natural enjoyment that is difficult to find this close to town.
Region & Climate
Lander has long been one of Wyoming’s most desirable communities, known for its mountain views, small town atmosphere, and easy access to outdoor recreation. Situated along the eastern edge of the Wind River Mountains, the area enjoys four distinct seasons, warm summers, colorful autumns, and generally mild winters by Wyoming standards.
The surrounding landscape is defined by rivers, foothills, agricultural ground, and the nearby Wind River Range. Residents enjoy abundant wildlife, excellent recreation opportunities and a slower pace of life while still having access to the services and amenities needed for everyday living.
Location
Located just north of Lander off North 2nd Street, North Fork Riverbend Acreage offers the convenience of being only minutes from schools, shopping, dining, medical services, and community events. Despite its proximity to town, the property’s end of the road setting creates a private atmosphere that feels far removed from everyday traffic and activity.
The location also provides convenient access to public lands, the Wind River Mountains, Sinks Canyon State Park, and countless opportunities for fishing, hiking, camping, and exploring throughout central Wyoming. It’s a rare chance to own a riverfront property that combines privacy, natural beauty, and convenience.
