Nestled in a vast meadow framed by dense aspen groves, this 35-acre off-grid retreat in Hayden, Colorado, is an ideal basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts. Located one hour from Steamboat Springs and 45 minutes from Yampa Valley Regional Airport, the property combines rugged mountain seclusion with just enough access to keep you connected when needed. Bordering the Routt National Forest, renowned as a prime summer range for elk and mule deer, this retreat offers direct entry to some of Northwest Colorado's premier hunting grounds in GMU 441. Home to the expansive Bears Ears Elk and Mule Deer herds, among the largest in Colorado, the area presents abundant big-game hunting opportunities. Over-the-Counter Elk licenses for Archery and 2nd/3rd Rifle seasons and low-point Deer tags make it easy to secure hunting licenses throughout the season. The 1,512-square-foot rustic cabin, designed for extended stays, balances comfort with off-grid practicality. It includes three bedrooms, two full baths, a kitchen, and a pressurized water system, while a wood stove and propane heater keep the cabin cozy on cold mornings. A generator powers the property, and it's fully wired for solar conversion. The well, septic, and buried propane tank ensure functionality, and a separate storage shed offers ample space for gear. Outside, two spring-fed ponds and frequent wildlife sightings enhance the secluded ambiance. The remote property, accessible by a gated road within the lightly covenanted Quaker Mountain Ranch, ensures privacy and direct access to over 100,000 acres of national forest for endless hunting and exploration, whether hiking, ATV riding, or snowmobiling.
