This exceptional property is a portion of the Historic Rancho Del Rio Estanislao Ranch, made up of two parcels APN 053-020-016 & 015 that total approximately 2579 acres. Currently part of a working ranch with no residence this would be the perfect place to build that dream home, a getaway retreat or adventure lodge reminiscent of the television series Yellowstone.

The ranch is rich in history being a portion of the Rancho del Rio Estanislao, a Mexican land grant that initially covered 48,887 acres in what is now Stanislaus and Calaveras counties. The grant was given in 1843 by Governor Manuel Micheltorena to Francisco Rico and Jose Castro and patented in 1863 following the Mexican-American war. Discover all the wonderful native flora and fauna. This property would make an exceptional hunting lodge or outdoor recreational retreat, a family fun oasis for making memories around a campfire. There are many lookouts to enjoy the sunsets that will take your breath away. If you are an equestrian enthusiast there are endless riding opportunities or cattle gathering-round up and branding days. Minutes from the nearby Golf Club at Copper Valley and the Square at Copper Valley. The Square has shopping, the new Gateway Hotel, three restaurants, medical facilities, many concerts, and events. Copperopolis is the gateway to the foothills. Enjoy seasonal sports and activities. Bear Valley and Dodge Ridge ski resorts are close.
