Don your Stetson, gather your friends and giddy on over to the Elizabeth Stampede, a PRCA Rodeo held every June in Elizabeth, Colorado.  You’ll pass by beautiful homes for sale here in Elizabeth subdivisions with extra acreage for your horse, gorgeous ranch houses for sale near Elizabeth, and thriving Elizabeth farms for sale. 

There is real estate galore around Elizabeth awaiting your horses and dream home amidst the gently rolling grasslands.  And at an elevation of 6450 feet, be sure to look out for wildlife along the way.

This lovely, sparsely populated town of Elizabeth, located in Central Colorado southeast of the Denver metropolis, was founded in 1890.  Most of the working residents make the short commute to Denver and its suburbs, but many have found ways to telecommute or build a business closer to home.

The community shares a love of nature, the outdoors and good ole country camaraderie.  Participation is high in everything from wonderful summer music festivals to arts and crafts, animal showing and rodeo events at the Elbert County Fair.  Hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, skiing, snow shoeing and horseback riding are part of everyday life for residents in this area.

The highly educated people in this area appreciate quality education available close by for their children and themselves.  There are numerous opportunities for obtaining skills—junior colleges, university, private schools and specialized schools are available in the Denver/Colorado Springs metro region along with elementary, middle and high schools very close to home.

Though some migrated here during the gold rush and found the riches to strap around their ten-galloon hats, everyone can find the richness of clean air, awesome scenery and real friendship while riding together through this part of God’s country.  Mosey on over and see for yourself.
