About this property
Unique 40 AC Horse Friendly Ranch Renovated 1850 Miners Cabin w/3000 SF Addition
Experience the Old West and the great outdoors at Wiley Spur Ranch! Located just 6 miles from Gunnison, Colorado and 20 miles from Crested Butte and Mt. Crested Butte you will enjoy the spectacular views of the Ohio Creek Valley. Photographing the wildflowers and wildlife, fly fishing, rafting, mountain biking, bring your horse and explore the BLM trails only a quarter mile away, 3 each 1 acre paddocks with plenty of grass to graze on, or hunters can trailer your horses just down the road to Ohio Creek Pass and pack in for hunting Elk. Enjoy the fall foliage or sit by the fire pit and star gaze, schedule your trip around the July 4th Holiday and go rodeoing! Crested Butte has a great fall film festival during the fall foliage. These are just a few activities in the nearby area. The original miners' cabin was built in 1851, renovated in 2010 and added onto in 2014. There are 2 living areas, 3 bedrooms plus a bunk room in the loft that will sleep 6, 4.5 bathrooms, a dogtrot style dining area, an outdoor cook shack fire pit and a whole lotta porch for watching the sunset over the mountains. We are less than a half mile from BLM property where you can explore on foot, horse back, 4 wheeler, or go hunt for Elk or Mule deer! Go ice skating, take in a hockey game at the ice center or visit the Gunnison Community Center and go swim or rock climb year around! You will not lack for something to do or see! Weddings not allowed per Gunnison County!

About the host
Hosted by Stan and Pam Hegener

We first found Crested Butte and Gunnison almost 35 years ago and brought our kids here to learn to ski. After several years absence we returned to the area and experienced the four seasons and decided we needed a place for our kids to come with their kids to enjoy the great outdoors!
Why they chose this property
When you drive up you will know why we fell in love with the property. You can see from the pictures its unique style and the amenities it has to offer. A 40 acre horse property with 360 views of the mountains and just 7 minutes from town and 20 minutes from Crested Butte. Year around activities and prefect temperatures!
