Property Description

This property defines an affordable Colorado basecamp, offering a rare double-lot opportunity (Units 223 and 224) in Chateau Chaparral, a riverfront community in the Arkansas Valley and surrounded by stunning peaks, many rising over 14,000 ft. Whether you’re seeking a weekend getaway, seasonal retreat, or low-maintenance home base near world-class recreation, this property provides exceptional value in a prime location, including private access to the Arkansas River and a footbridge into Brown’s Canyon National Monument (over 21,000 acres of protected public land with miles of trails, wildlife habitat, and iconic canyon scenery). Lot 223 features the added benefit of winter water, making it especially well-suited for extended seasonal use. It can be purchased separately for $95,000, and the clean, well-kept Keystone Montana 2955RL 5th wheel may convey or be removed depending on the buyer’s preference. The 5th wheel includes the Arctic Insulation Package, Total Surround Aluminum Structure, and A/C for warm summer days. A propane tank is already in place, providing a convenient and comfortable setup for year-round enjoyment. Lot 224 offers seasonal water (with potential to upgrade to year-round use) and includes additional improvements such as a private storage shed for tools and gear, along with a dog kennel that may convey or be removed depending on your plans. Lot 224 can be purchased separately for $80,000 or combined with Lot 223 as a rare double-lot package. Excellent amenities including a community clubhouse and activity center, fitness and game areas, showers and restrooms, coin laundry, WiFi, a commercial kitchen, and well-maintained roads and common areas. HOA services also include water, sewer, and trash, making ownership simple and convenient. Ideally located between Salida and Buena Vista, you’re just minutes from rafting, fishing, hiking, biking, hot springs, and skiing, including Mt. Princeton Hot Springs and Monarch Mountain.
