Consider Location When Choosing Recreational Property
Everyone
knows the most important three words in real estate are location, location,
location. This is especially true with regard to recreational property. Where
your mountain paradise is located will make a big difference in your long-term
enjoyment of the property and its market value.
So if you're actively looking for property now, or will be in the market some
day in the future, here are some suggestions as you consider location:
- Is the property adjacent or within easy walking or driving distance to the
kinds of activities you like to do? This seems pretty elementary, but there
are quite a few cabin development locations where you have to drive a considerable
distance for recreational activities. If you like to fish, are there lakes
and/or streams close by? If you can't get there in 10 or 15 minutes, you'll
wish you were closer. Consider both the summer and winter seasons. If you
like to snowmobile, cross-country ski, or go ATVing, there ought to be trails
nearby where those activities are allowed. Are there places close by to walk
and hike? Do you want to be adjacent to national forest land? Do you like
to watch wildlife?
- Is the elevation high enough to be cool on summer nights? Does it get enough
snow for winter sports?
- Is the location close enough that you can drive to it within a couple of
hours? If you have to travel more than two hours you'll find you won't use
it as much. Recreation- al property should be accessible enough that you can
just go up for a day and have enough time to get things done and enjoy yourselves.
- Does the property have year-round access? This is important if you like
winter sports and want to use the cabin year-round. Many developments don't
plow roads year-round, but at least provide a large plowed parking area so
cabin owners can snowmobile in to their properties.
- Is the property secluded enough for you? Some people aren't into outdoor
activities all that much, but just want some place they can get away from
the rat race and relax. If neighbours are too close, if lots are too small:
if the property is on a busy road, then you might not enjoy the seclusion
you want.
Utah has a number of good recreational property developments that will likely
have lots that meet your expectations and provide the kinds of amenities you
desire. One of them is Bandanna Ranch. It is an example of a development that
meets the "location, location, location" test.
