Dotsero, CO 81637 - Eagle County

Coyote River Ranch is a multifaceted investment opportunity. The property has approximately a mile of frontage on the Colorado River, extensive gravel reserves and valuable senior water rights. This 166-acre parcel is located just north of I-70 at the community of Dotsero, which is between Glenwood Springs and Vail, Colorado. Testing of gravel reserves indicate marketable material of at least 3.1 million tons with the potential of substantial additional reserves. A local highway contractor has indicated interest in a mining lease with royalty payments to the landowner. This stretch of the Colorado River is well known as an excellent fishery. As evidence of this quality, the ranch has participated in several international fly-fishing competitions. A productive hay meadow along the river is irrigated by 2 cfs of early priority water rights. Sitting on the banks of the river is a very welcoming three-bedroom home. Other buildings include a smaller rental home, quonset and corrals with livestock shelters. With the option of annexing this property into the town of Gypsum, there is development potential for the property. Coyote River ranch is an unusual opportunity for the investor with potential for mineral royalty income, property development or conservation easement potential, and substantial frontage on the Colorado River.
