Why they chose this property

Absolutely no danger of flooding, even during the occasionally heavy Monsoon thunderstorms. About 40 ft elevation from the Spring Valley floor. Incredibly beautiful 3-tiered setting with lots and lots of character including rock outcroppings and huge pines, many of which are old-growth pines. Plenty of shade and cool afternoon and evening breezes during the hottest summer days (85F). And the snow covered trees in winter help accentuate a real-life winter wonderland from mid-December thru February.

We have a Chevy Avalanche, 3/4 ton SnowPlow, a snow blower, and plenty of snow shovels. Therefore, we nor any guests have ever been snowed-in here!

2 ponds with duck sit at the Southern tip of the property which is the virtual starting point of the expansive meadows of the Spring Valley. A 9400 ft mountain sits immediately to the West. Its foothills are only about a mile away!

What makes this property unique

Private, off street parking right at your door. DirecTV with HD TV. Pellet stove for winter stays keeps the cabin toasty even during the coldest nights and days! Open or crack the windows for beautiful, cooling breezes nearly every day of summer. Elk, deer and an occasional antelope visit the property regularly, except in the heart of winter. Kuerig coffee maker with medium or dark roast coffee pods and sugar. BBQ tools located between fire pit/BBQ and propane BBQ with adjacent chairs and a picnic table just outside your door. Snowplow on property to provide you easy access during winter storms. Unusually major storms or equipment fails can impair access or egress. But that would be an unusual, however, forsee-able situation. Fire roads for quads virtually everywhere around us. Fun adventures everywhere you turn! Check snowpack. You might want to bring your snowmobiles, cross-country or downhill skis, snowshoes, discs, sleds and/or toboggans in Winter months.
