Robbins Ranch - An Amazing Recreational Property

I'm always on the lookout for exceptional recreational properties and I've found a great one. If I had $7 million I'll buy it in a heartbeat.

It is Robbins Ranch, located on Rock Creek, on the South Slope of the Uintas, in NE Utah. It includes 120 acres, with 1/4 mile of stream frontage, plus four spring-fed ponds that produce trout (rainbows and brookies) up to 8 pounds. The ranch is along the paved, state-maintained road leading up to Upper Stillwater Reservoir, about 28 miles NW of Duchesne.

I love to fish Rock Creek. It offers very good fishing in a classic setting, very scenic, with deer, elk, moose, and numerous small animals and birds. I've fished stretches above and below the ranch, and I've eyeballed the beautiful holes on the ranch, coveting the property that I'm prevented from fishing because it is fenced and gated.

The ranch is nestled within Ashley National Forest. The Upper Stillwater area serves as the trailhead for several excellent trails leading into the High Uinta Wilderness. The area is prime for fishing, hunting, horseback riding, snowmobiling, and numerous other activities. It would be a wonderful place to just relax, watch the wildlife and enjoy the solitude.

This would make a great family recreational paradise or corporate retreat. It is certainly a great investment - property in this area is certain to appreciate significantly during the coming years.

Seven million - that's certainly a lot of money. But people are paying that much for a home on a small lot on a Park City golf course. Park City vs Rock Creek – I'll take Robbins Ranch any day.
