Buck Fever Ranch
Details & Features
Buck Fever Ranch is located just south of Redvale and 10 minutes from the popular hunting destination of Norwood. This mule deer and elk sanctuary is less than an hour from Telluride, 1.5 hours from the Montrose/Telluride airport, and less than two hours from Moab, Utah. The property is easily accessed and is near great dining, shopping, and world-class winter sports in the famous Telluride, Colorado.
Excellent deer hunting is the highlight of the ranch, given its location in Game Management Unit (GMU) 70, best known for its quality mule deer and quality elk. The ranch is situated in a deer migration corridor funnel that not only holds large numbers of resident deer but gains new deer throughout the hunting seasons as they migrate through the ranch. It is common to see over 250 deer pass through the ranch during this migration. The ranch qualifies for landowner vouchers with the potential to get mule deer tags yearly. The ranch currently runs 30+ pair of cattle. This takes care of the property’s agricultural requirements without overgrazing. At 3,200 square feet, the main lodge features an open floor plan with vaulted and beamed ceilings, wood floors, and a fireplace with a wood-burning insert. The kitchen offers Viking appliances, a gas cooktop with beautiful granite countertops, and cabinetry. The lodge’s master suite includes a large sitting area, a spa-like bath with dual vanities, and a walkout balcony. A shop with living quarters upstairs boasts two bedrooms and two baths. The ranch grounds also feature a one-bedroom cabin complete with a kitchen and bath. The panoramic views from the lodge are second to none; from this vantage point, some of the ranch’s biggest bucks have been seen feeding in a meadow less than 200 yards away. To the southeast is the San Juan mountain range just above Telluride, to the south is Lone Cone Mountain, to the west are the Lasalle Mountains of Utah and to the north are the coveted Colorado GMU 61 and the Uncompahgre Plateau. At approximately 7,000 feet in elevation, the property consists of mostly pinion and juniper with long meadows between and abundant feed scattered throughout. Three ponds hold water year-round and a spring that typically has an elk wallow at the bottom.
