    What's special

    This property offers direct access to the National Forest and is located in Hunting Unit 55. Built in 1981, this 4-bedroom cabin is situated on 9.7 acres within Quartz Creek Properties, near Pitkin, Colorado. The property includes two outbuildings: one housing a generator and the other serving as an outhouse and shower house. The outhouse features a 25-year pit, and the shower house has redwood flooring. As part of the subdivision, owners are allotted 150 gallons of water per day from developed springs, including a chlorinated spring in Armstrong Gulch. Additional springs in the area provide water for household use, though not for drinking. The cabin is equipped with a wood cook stove and a gas refrigerator. It comprises two bedrooms on the ground floor and two upstairs, along with a loft area and a balcony on the second floor. The deck wraps around three-quarters of the cabin, offering spectacular views. The property adjoins the National Forest, providing access to riding trails and hunting areas. The mostly flat terrain of the grounds offers ample opportunities for additional structures and recreational activities. Access is straightforward during summer months, while winter access can be achieved via snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, or using a snowcat.
