Description
PRICE REDUCED! 120± Acres in Carbon County with BLM Border Access
Located within the historic Cassidy River Ranch in Carbon County, Wyoming, this 120± acre property offers a combination of open space, privacy, and access to hundreds of acres of public land. The property borders approximately 640 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ground, providing additional land to explore, hunt, or ride. Resting at an elevation of about 6,700 feet, the terrain is a mix of level and gently rolling native grassland with expansive mountain views in nearly every direction. This setting captures the essence of Wyoming’s wide-open landscape, where pronghorn and mule deer roam the prairies, and bald eagles, golden eagles, and red-tailed hawks soar overhead.
Cassidy River Ranch is known for its deep roots in the history of the American West. Archaeological discoveries across the area have uncovered dinosaur bones, buffalo remains, and ancient teepee rings. The Plains Indians once called this area “good medicine” for its abundant wildlife and resources. Decades later, this land became tied to one of Wyoming’s most well-known legends—Butch Cassidy. The infamous Overland Pacific Flyer train robbery near the Wilcox station took place just south of the ranch, and local stories suggest Cassidy may have hidden along the Little Medicine Bow River during his escape. The region's heritage remains visible in the unspoiled grasslands and the quiet beauty that still defines the landscape today.
Beyond its history, Cassidy River Ranch provides modern landowners with a peaceful and scenic environment. The property offers space to build a full-time residence, a seasonal retreat, or to enjoy recreational use. Gentle topography and consistent ground cover make it suitable for horses, grazing, or small-scale agricultural projects. Power is located roughly one mile from the property, allowing future owners to extend service as needed, and access is reliable via maintained roads connecting to Wyoming Highway 487 and U.S. Interstate 80. It is an easy drive from the ranch to Laramie, Medicine Bow, and Rock River for supplies, dining, and services.
A unique feature of Cassidy River Ranch is its 300± acres of deeded Riverfront Commons shared among property owners. This area includes a private fishing reservoir and approximately two miles of riverfrontage along the Little Medicine Bow River. Owners have equal access to enjoy fishing, picnicking, or simply relaxing along the river. The shared riverfront area adds recreational and conservation value, balancing open space and responsible land use.
The property is in an excellent location for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. It lies within Antelope Unit 47, Deer Unit 64 (Region J), and Elk Unit 7, all well-known for their populations of big game and public access opportunities with proper licensing. The bordering BLM land expands those opportunities right from the property line. Whether for hunting, horseback riding, or simply enjoying the scenery, this parcel provides year-round possibilities to experience Wyoming’s natural environment firsthand.
Cassidy River Ranch is a covenant-controlled community designed to preserve the integrity and appearance of the landscape while giving landowners flexibility in how they use their property. While there are covenants, there is no HOA or fee to worry about.
This 120± acre parcel offers a rare blend of history, open space, and private and public recreation access. With direct BLM access, mountain views, and shared riverfront opportunities, it provides a genuine Wyoming experience in one of Albany County’s most distinctive ranch communities. Whether used as a homesite, hunting base, or a place to enjoy the land simply, this property offers the space and setting to create something lasting.
