The area has it all, and owning this fantastic property will put every bit of it right at the back door of the cabin in the mountains you've always wanted to build.

Or for now, just pull your camper in or put up your tent and start enjoying this amazing setting right away. You can fish for cutthroat and brook trout right in the river on your very own property, then go up and down the river onto all the National Forest lands and keep right on fishing. The river pours right out of numerous high mountain lakes that are chock full of trout. Lakes like Brannan Lake, Sailor Lake, Lake Louise, Lost Cabin Lake, Globe Lake, and more are all here to be fished and enjoyed. These are high mountain lakes that are pristine and picturesque, with the mountain peaks jutting up right from their shores. It’s the perfect background setting for your high mountain South Boulder River recreational property. Enjoy it all.
