Back at home, Cedaredge Highlands offers spectacular views towards the West Elks and San Juan Mountain ranges. Plenty of mountain wildlife also abound. Moose and mule deer often graze the Main Street corridor. Fishing at nearby Surface Creek, and the Gunnison River, offers some of the best in the state, and the elk hunting will challenge the best outdoor enthusiast.

But rugged scenery and adventure isn’t the only thing that the region has to offer. Cedaredge is known for its temperate climate, and early settlers took advantage of it by growing award-winning apples, peaches, grapes, and other fruits. The annual Applefest has been celebrating area fruit growers since the mid 1970’s, on the first full weekend in October, commemorating the fall harvest and rich agricultural heritage of the area. There’s also plenty of wine tasting, fresh apple cider, art galleries, and farmers markets to keep one busy on a sunny day, which the area has plenty.
If a round or two of golf is what interests you, Cedaredge Golf Club, an 18-hole golf course at Deer Creek Village, designed by golf Pro Byron Coker, provides some of the best in the state. In winter, venture up the Grand Mesa to Powderhorn Ski Resort for some of the best local skiing and snowmobiling. The resort averages 250 inches annually, a winter sportsman’s dream.

One hour from Grand Junction, the Western Slopes largest city, with all the shopping and amenities one desires, and within a hour from Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Colorado’s Grand Canyon, and Ridgway, the gateway to the high mountain town of Telluride, Cedaredge Highlands at Cedar Mesa, offers the best of all, and the best of the Rockies.

Homes from $425,000, 5 acre ranch lots from $150,000
