Property Description
Situated in southeastern Natrona County, Upper Big Red Creek Ranch offers 520± deeded acres of open mountain country along Big Red Creek, with convenient highway access. Close to established subdivisions and the growing demand for second homes and summer cabins around Casper and Casper Mountain, the property is well positioned for a private homesite, a family retreat, or long-term investment. With no improvements and no grazing leases, a buyer has a clean slate to shape the land to their own vision, whether that is a mountain residence, a recreational and hunting getaway, or a future conservation project.
