Property Description

High-Traffic Recreation Corridor Property with Commercial/Recreation Zoning and CDOT Access Approval for 52 RV Sites Plan

Located on Highway 285 at the top of Poncha Pass, this 49.5-acre commercially zoned property offers high visibility, existing income, and serious development potential. With CDOT-approved access for 52 RV sites and key infrastructure already in place, it is positioned for RV park expansion, adventure tourism, or a multi-use commercial venture.

Currently supporting an off-road rental and tour operation, the property includes a 1,800 square foot finished office with storefront entry, private office, and two restrooms. A 3,600 square foot heated steel-frame shop features a concrete slab, tall bay doors, car lift, power, and a mezzanine for storage or expansion. The 1,800 square foot residence includes 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, vaulted ceilings, granite counters, and an open-concept layout. Utilities, a private well, and a septic system are already in place. The business may be negotiable with the right offer and currently operates snowmobile trips out of Cottonwood Pass and Marshall Pass, and ATV trips out of Marshall Pass, North Fork, Ute Trail, and Mineral Basin.

Just 9 minutes from Poncha Springs and 17 minutes from downtown Salida, this site sits directly on a heavily trafficked recreation corridor connecting to Monarch Ski Area, O’Haver Lake, the Sand Dunes, multiple hot springs, and trailheads. Ideal for a destination RV park, tourism or recreation business, live/work headquarters, or a hybrid commercial concept with room to grow. County approval is required to activate the RV site plan.
