Description
Located at the confluence of Sweetwater Creek and the Colorado River, the 165 deeded acre Anderson Camps Ranch is a landmark Eagle County river holding. This attractive and historic ranch possesses nearly .75 mile of private frontage on both banks of Sweetwater Creek and enjoys private Colorado River access. Here, one can walk out the back door and fish the ranch's internal private waters or wade and float the Colorado River. Set just above the confluence of the rivers and sheltered by mature trees is the tastefully remodeled 5,353 square foot Craftsman Bungalow style residence built in the early 1920s by Mary Converse of the Converse Rubber Company. Well-suited to its surroundings and beautifully landscaped, this home is both attractive and rich in local history. Easily accessed from Vail, Beaver Creek and Aspen, Anderson Camps Ranch bares the distinction of being the only Sweetwater property located on the Colorado River. Protected on three sides by federal lands, Anderson Camps Ranch encompasses cottonwood lined river bottom, 46 acres of irrigated hay meadow, and lower-elevation mountain lands. The property was utilized as a dude ranch and subsequently operated for nearly five decades as a notable youth summer camp. Ownership has carefully maintained or remodeled the commercial camp infrastructure and amenities, and the property is ready for immediate use as a private retreat or commercial operation. The ranch has year-round paved access and serves as the literal gateway to the much sought-after Sweetwater Creek Valley, planned Sweetwater Lake State Park, and Flat Tops Mountain Range. Interstate 70 is located 7.6 paved miles south of the ranch. The Eagle County Regional Airport, FBO, and the town of Gypsum are 30 minutes away. Beaver Creek and Avon are 50 minutes, Vail is 55 minutes, and Aspen is an hour-and-a-half-hour drive. The ranch is two hours and 50 minutes from Denver International Airport.
