Fully Treed, Adjacent Lots for Sale
Fort Garland, CO 81133
Costilla County, Colorado

Lot Description
Have you always dreamt of having a Cabin, being camouflaged in middle of the trees or building your dream tree house getaway. Well, you can do all that and more with these two adjacent lots, 1.64 acres each giving you a total of 3.28 acres of beautiful, buildable mountain land, where the possibilities are endless.
The lots are located in the back portion of Forbes Park Subdivision, that were not affected by the 2018 Spring Creek Fire. So, as you can see by our photos and drone coverage it is all green and beautiful all the way around. There even seems to be a creek or snow melt run-off that passes through the property (shown in our property video), something that you could take advantage of while camping and / or visiting the property.
FAQ's:
Where are some good places to hike?
There are several trails that begin in Forbes Park and lead to great views in the San Isabel National Forest. The most popular starting point is at the intersection of Elicker and Grojean. You can proceed through the unlocked personnel gate and follow the trail into Bonnett Park. You will find several trails to follow that lead out of Bonnett Park. On most Tuesdays a group of Forbes Park residents hike trails in the area. Watch for bulletins posted at the front gate and at the Forbes Park Center. These hikes are open to anyone.
Are there any fish in the lakes, ponds, or streams in Forbes Park?
The water sources in the Park are very shallow and freeze during the winter. Fish are not abundant. The streams do flow freely all year round. Some fish, mostly Brookies (Brook Trout) can be found in the streams.
Is hunting allowed in the Park?
Hunting is not allowed in the Park. Landowners do own land and/or homes in the Park because of the ease of assessing to legal hunting areas. Parts of the Park's boundary are adjacent to a National Forest and some Blm. Hunting is allowed in these areas with the appropriate Colorado license. See the Colorado Parks & Wildlife website for information.
