With year round access, this 39+ acre parcel is part of the Connor Creek Ranch HOA that has been designed to meet the needs of discerning property owners. The Connor Creek Ranch Residential Community was carefully planned with full consideration of the majestic mountain views, the beauty of the landscape and opportunity to view wildlife and enjoy nature.

The well-thought out covenants and design guidelines were developed to advance these values.Set on 39 gently rolling acres along the eastern edge of North Park, this property offers a balanced blend of timber and open ground, where stands of pine and aspen transition naturally into sunlit meadows.

The land slopes subtly from west to east, creating both dimension and usability while opening up long, unobstructed views toward the surrounding high country, including the distant horizons of the Rawah Wilderness, State Forest State Park, and Rocky Mountain National Park.

The layout of the property lends itself to quiet exploration, whether you're following the natural contours through the trees or stepping out into the open grass with a wider view of the valley. A seasonal draw winds through portions of the land, adding character and drawing in wildlife that move naturally through the area.

Elk, deer, moose, antelope and smaller game are frequent visitors, reinforcing the sense that this ground sits within a much larger, living landscape. Beyond the boundaries, ownership includes limited access to the nearly 1,600 acres of Connor Creek Ranch, extending your reach into additional terrain without the responsibility of full ownership.

It's a rare balance-private acreage that stands on its own, yet connects to something larger. Positioned in the heart of working cattle country near Walden, the property is surrounded by a patchwork of pasture, hay ground, and winding waterways that define this side of North Park.

The setting feels expansive and unconfined, yet grounded in the quiet rhythm of the valley-where the landscape, more than anything else, sets the tone. This property is in an HOA that promotes and protects the values of it's owners. Building envelopes have been created so houses from any parcel can't be seen by another.

Hunting is not allowed anywhere on the property and motorized vehicles are not allowed off-road or on the trails. While this my seem restrictive, this creates an environment that appeals to those looking for a quiet sanctuary that isn't found anywhere else in North Park.

This is a part of the Connor Creek Ranch HOA. Check attached documents or links for more information about the HOA and Connor Creek Ranch in general. By request, covenants will be shared with interested parties. This 39+ acres plays much bigger. With an intertwined trail system and 3 private trout ponds available for use, you are not isolated to your property.

With only 9 parcels (and 4 houses built), there is very little human presence on the land. Regionally, recreation in North Park is less about infrastructure and more about access. Surrounded by vast stretches of public land and defined by a noticeable absence of crowds, the area offers a kind of freedom that's increasingly hard to find.

From the corridor of Colorado State Highway 14, adventure unfolds in every direction. To the west, Steamboat Springs provides year-round activity, from world-class skiing in the winter to hiking, biking, and river recreation in the warmer months. Yet it doesn't take long to leave the resort behind and step into true backcountry solitude.

Closer to home, North Park is widely known for its exceptional hunting, with strong populations of elk, mule deer, moose and pronghorn. The river systems, including stretches of the North Platte, Canadian and Michigan Rivers, offer quality fishing in clear, cold water that winds through both canyon and meadow. Wildlife is a constant presence-moose, waterfowl, and migratory birds move through the valley with the seasons. Each time of year brings its own rhythm. Fall draws hu
