221 Cottonwood Dr, Cotopaxi, CO 81223
Nearly 28 Acres Bordering BLM on Two Sides – End-of-the-Road Seclusion with Big Potential. Tucked at the very end of the Glen Vista community, this nearly 28-acre off-grid parcel borders over 33,000 acres of BLM land on two sides, giving you direct access to public land, unmatched privacy, and a wide-open Colorado backdrop that’s getting harder to find. The land is raw and untouched, needing some cleanup and vision—but if you're looking for a true project with payoff, this is it. With usable terrain, towering pines, and room to roam, it’s an ideal setting for a hunting cabin, off-grid homestead, or rugged basecamp. Build to suit under Fremont County building codes, or use it seasonally under current zoning. No HOA enforcement—just freedom to create your own mountain getaway. When you're ready for a change of pace, the Arkansas River Valley of Southern Colorado is minutes away, offering gold medal fishing, whitewater rafting, and miles of hiking and ATV trails surrounded by epic mountain scenery. With easy access to Texas Creek OHV Park, the Royal Gorge, and nearby towns like Cañon City, Westcliffe, and Salida, you’re never far from supplies or adventure. This isn’t just land—it’s an opportunity to own a hard-to-find stretch of Colorado wilderness, right where the road ends and the wild begins.
